Question: I am working on a web api and I am curios about the `HTTP SEARCH` verb and how you should use it.

My first approach was, well you could use it surely for a search. But asp.net WebApi doesn't support the `SEARCH` verb.

My question is basically, should I use `SEARCH` or is it not important?

PS: I found the `SEARCH` verb in fiddler2 from telerik.

Answer: 
The HTTP protocol is defined by RFC documents. RFC2616 defines HTTP/1.1 the current release.

SEARCH is not documented as a verb in this document.
AFAIK the `SEARCH` method is only a proposal and should not be used. Use `GET` instead.
