## How to call it through Zero

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to discover, search, or look up emojis by natural language keyword, name, or shortcode — especially when building emoji pickers, auto-suggesting emojis in a chat interface, or enriching content with relevant emoji characters.

## Known failure modes

- Empty query string rejected (minLength:1 required)
- Limit out of range (must be 1-100) causes validation error
- No matching emojis found returns empty result set
- Query too vague returns irrelevant or low-confidence matches

## How this service works

Fuzzy-search emoji by name, shortcode or keyword tag, ranked exact → prefix → substring.

## Output

A list of matching emojis up to the specified limit (default 20), each likely including the emoji character, its name, and shortcode, ranked by relevance to the search query.
