# Search files

> Search everything in the shared drive the token can see. Returns at most 50 files
(newest first) and, when `search` is set and no file-only filter is used, at most 50
folders whose name matches.

Use `search` (never `q`) to filter by name.

Requires the `fileCabinet.read` permission.
