Hi All,
Is there an easier way of navigating the API? I wanted to pull out some org unit only to realize I had 228 pages for the org units and the only navigation was the previous and next buttons. A search feature would be a useful addition.

Yes inded, and fortunately this is already part of the API, as mentioned in the manual (section 25.4).
You can for example do things like this:
api/organisationUnits/search/bc%20Bas-Congo%20Province

Thanks Knut,
I used the pivot table to run a report on the facility then obtained the UID which I then added to the url i.e. http://test.hiskenya.org/api/organisationUnits/[UID], I have not read through the entire manual but I am very grateful for the quick feedback. I will certainly use the search feature on the URL. I was wondering why it was not part of the UI.

Hi David,
if you use “search” the id, name or code has to be exact.
For browsing/filtering by name you might want to use “query”, e.g.

No need to read through the entire manual - just search 
Google this:
