I don't remember that being a restriction on the search API. Are you getting errors when you run code with a one or two character substring?

Here's an example:

len(stripe.Product.search(query='name~"station"').data)
6

len(stripe.Product.search(query='name~"sta"').data)
7
len(stripe.Product.search(query='name~"st"').data)
0

Interesting, definitely seems like it is the case. Looking in to this to see if we have it documented as expected behavior

I have confirmed that it is expected behavior. Not sure why we have this restriction but I will make sure this is publicly documented and will put in a feature request to allow for shorter substrings. It would probably also be helpful for us to explicitly error out rather than silently failing.

Agreed.

Thank you for reporting this, I'm glad I at least know about this restriction now
