The /v4/search/name/ endpoint lets you load the list of carriers whose business names could be related to your search phrase.
The key distinction between this endpoint and /v4/search/dot/ is that this endpoint returns a list of carriers, not an in-depth profile, even if only one carrier matches to the search phrase.
Notes on this endpoint:
- Authentication via header. To authenticate your API call, pass in your public API key with the X-Api-Key HTTP header.
