try { const response = await fetch(url, options); const data = await response.json(); console.log(data);} catch (error) { console.error(error);}curl --request POST \ --url https://example.com/api/v1/org/example/tools/search \ --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --data '{ "num_results": 10, "query": "example" }'Run a hosted web search backed by Brave. Metered per call against the organization’s credit balance in SaaS mode (WEB_SEARCH_CREDITS_PER_CALL). Returns 503 when the deployment has no Brave key configured so the SDK can fall through to other backends.
