{{APIRef("URL Pattern API")}} {{AvailableInWorkers}}
The search read-only property of the {{domxref("URLPattern")}} interface is a string containing the pattern used to match the search part of a URL.
This is the normalized value of the search pattern passed to the constructor, an inherited value from a baseURL passed to the constructor, or the default value ("*"), which matches any search part.
A string.
The following example creates a {{domxref("URLPattern")}} object with 'q=baby' for the search part and logs the property.
This pattern matches any URL for which the search part includes exactly that text.
const pattern = new URLPattern({
search: "q=baby",
});
console.log(pattern.search); // "q=baby"
console.log(pattern.test("https://example.com/shoes?q=baby")); // true
