  • foundboolean

    true

  • reason"not_found"

    Present only when `found` is false, and says why there is no result. `not_found`: the source states the target does not exist, or returned nothing for it. A `found: false` answer is a successful call, not an error, and `costUsd` is what it actually cost.

You get back. Named, typed fields in the same shape whichever source answers.
