# Dribbble Shot Search

Search public Dribbble shots by keyword and get one page of shot cards: position, title, canonical shot URL, full-resolution image URL, the numeric shot id, like and view counts, and the designer name, username and profile URL. List counts come from rounded labels such as 5.4k; counts_approximate is true on cards where a count was rounded, and the shot detail endpoint returns exact counts. Guest search renders a single server-side page, so has_more is always false and only page 1 is available. Promoted and sponsored cards are excluded. A query with no matches is a valid empty result and is still a successful response.
