Search Files Using the Dropbox API

This post details the technical enhancements of the new [/files/search_v2](https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#files-search) endpoint compared to the previous v1 version. Key improvements include a >20% performance gain, enhanced reliability, expanded support for file types (Paper, G Suite/O365 online-only, unmounted files), and new filtering options such as `file_extensions` and `file_categories`. It also introduces `order_by: last_modified_time` for result sorting and an improved pagination scheme using `/files/search/continue_v2`. The `include_highlights` boolean is introduced to return highlighted spans in search results, mirroring UI behavior. Code samples demonstrate the usage of these new features.
