Search Articles by Subject

Use GET /api/v1/entities/search with a subject to find curated articles whose extracted themes mention a topic — a case-insensitive substring match against metadataJson.themes. Unlike person / company / organization, subject queries do not call Wikidata (resolved stays null). Same catalog as topic search (isCurated, not disabled). Free, no auth required.

Request

The endpoint requires at least one of ticker, company, person, organization, or subject.

Results are sorted by publishedAt, most recent first — use this to browse a named theme by recency. Broad “what are analysts saying about X?” research still belongs on /api/v1/search.
