/search/labels Search labels
Find labels in a repository with names or descriptions that match search keywords. Returns up to 100 results [per page](https://docs.github.com/rest/guides/using-pagination-in-the-rest-api).
When searching for labels, you can get text match metadata for the label **name** and **description** fields when you pass the `text-match` media type. For more details about how to receive highlighted search results, see [Text match metadata](https://docs.github.com/rest/search/search#text-match-metadata).
For example, if you want to find labels in the `linguist` repository that match `bug`, `defect`, or `enhancement`. Your query might look like this:
`q=bug+defect+enhancement&repository_id=64778136`
The labels that best match the query appear first in the search results.
- repository_id query required
- The id of the repository.
- integer
- q query required
- The search keywords. This endpoint does not accept qualifiers in the query. To learn more about the format of the query, see [Constructing a search query](https://docs.github.com/rest/search/search#constructing-a-search-query).
- string
- sort query
- Sorts the results of your query by when the label was `created` or `updated`. Default: [best match](https://docs.github.com/rest/search/search#ranking-search-results)
- enum: created, updated
- order query
- Determines whether the first search result returned is the highest number of matches (`desc`) or lowest number of matches (`asc`). This parameter is ignored unless you provide `sort`.
- enum: desc, asc
- per_page query
- The number of results per page (max 100). For more information, see "[Using pagination in the REST API](https://docs.github.com/rest/using-the-rest-api/using-pagination-in-the-rest-api)."
- integer
- page query
- The page number of the results to fetch. For more information, see "[Using pagination in the REST API](https://docs.github.com/rest/using-the-rest-api/using-pagination-in-the-rest-api)."
