# Find agreements, invoices, alerts, topics and claims by name

> Finds records by their name, not their contents. Agreements match on title or supplier name, and archived agreements are left out. Invoices match on invoice number, and on invoice title from three characters, number matches first; use GET /v1/invoices with search for supplier names and GET /v1/invoices/line-items for lines. Alerts, topics and claims match on title; invalidated alerts are left out. Exact matches rank first, then prefixes, then substrings (from three characters). Supplier names match only as substrings, and each word of a substring query may match either the agreement title or a supplier. Ties go to the most recent. limit_per_type caps each type; results are not paginated. To search what agreements say, use POST /v1/documents/search.
