import os, requests

const url = new URL("https://api.api.sh/fandom/v1/search");
url.searchParams.set("wiki", "harrypotter");
url.searchParams.set("q", "hogwarts");

Response
A JSON object with the fields described above, plus raw (the source's own data), cached, fetched_at and credits_used. Errors return {"success": false, "error": "…"} with the HTTP status (see errors). A lookup that ran but found nothing (404) costs the price above; refused calls and errors on our side are free (what's charged).
The fastest way to see the full response is the playground: it runs this endpoint with your account and shows the exact JSON.
