Description
In the web searches plugin, when we add a new website, the instruction reads as follows:
If you have a web search service you want to use, you can add it to Flow. For
example, you can follow the url format in the address bar if you want to search
casino on Netflix: "https://www.netflix.com/search?q=Casino". To do this,
change the search term 'Casino' as follows.
https://www.netflix.com/search?q={q}
Add it to the URL section below. You can now search Netflix with Flow using any
search terms.
This is a bit confusing.
A better version is as follows:
If you want to add a search for a particular website to Flow, first enter a dummy text string in the search bar of that website, and launch the search. Now copy the contents of the browser's address bar, and paste it in the URL field below. Replace your test string with {q}.
For example, if you search for casino on Netflix, its address bar reads https://www.netflix.com/search?q=Casino.
Now copy this entrire string and paste it in the URL field below.
Then replace casino with {q}.
Thus, the generic formula for a search on Netflix is https://www.netflix.com/search?q={q}
