    Good news, the team has finished reviewing this and has decided to extend this, bringing the retirement date for /files/search to October 28. Hope this helps!

Hi Greg-DB ,

 

I'm just wanting to confirm that you have now, indeed, canned the perfectly valid search API in favour of the problematic search_v2 API as announced? The end date you announced was 28th February and that date has now passed.

 

I'm very disappointed by the lack of meaningful response to the concerns that I have raised regarding the timeframe of this change.

 

Best wishes,

 

Andrew
