Can I use FireSearch from python sdk?
Reading the doc (https://docs.firecrawl.dev/articles/search-announcement), can I use FireSearch from python sdk? I don't see any info on the doc.

Yea, you can install version 0.0.20 and call the search method. That uses the v0 of our API instead of v1.
@Adobe.Flash could I ask why it's removed from v1?
Hi @Agu, as we create new and exciting things,
/search is unfortunately not a priority for us anymore -- it's not going away, but we're not developing it activelyBtw, the /search endpoint brings a lot of value to FireCrawl as a whole. With some additional paramaters it could replace paid services like https://serper.dev/ https://serpapi.com/
We know, but we don't think we can make any notable improvements to it, so we're freezing it in v0. It's going to work indefinitely, it's just... finished.
Thanks for letting us know
By the way, proxy/antibot improvements we make in /scrape and /crawl will still be received by /search
