## Search for packages using the REST API

You can use the Azure DevOps REST API to search for packages in a specific organization. For more information, see [Fetch package search results](/rest/api/azure/devops/search/package-search-results/fetch-package-search-results).
43
+
The Azure DevOps REST API provides an endpoint that allows you to search for packages within a specific organization. The following example demonstrates how to construct the HTTP request and request body to search for the *react-calendar* npm package across all feeds in your organization. See [Fetch package search results](/rest/api/azure/devops/search/package-search-results/fetch-package-search-results) for more details.
