Hi,

I’m trying to search posts from our Hubspot-powered blog with the help of [Content Search API v2](https://legacydocs.hubspot.com/docs/methods/content/search-for-content). Found the following call from the documentation, which I’m using as the starting point:

`https://api.hubapi.com/contentsearch/v2/search?portalId=62515&term=hubspot`

In this call I’m replacing the portalId to our Hubspot ID and the term to any term from the blog. In the attached screenshot you can see the response I get in Postman.

Since I’m not getting any result, I believe I’m doing something fundamentally wrong but don’t know what that is. Much appreciated if anyone can point me in the right direction.

Thank you

_p.s. I’m not filtering for blog posts during the testing but when I get this working I’ll add the filter._

Please verify your portal ID

Thank you @prosa for the suggestion. The portal ID was correct.

The issue was related to robots.txt for the blog. Added the following to the file and then API started to work.

```lia-code-sample
# Block all bots
User-agent: *
Disallow: /

# Allow HubSpot Site Search Indexing
User-agent: HubSpotContentSearchBot
Allow: /

```

Here’s [the reference from the documentation](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/cms/features/content-search#control-indexing-during-development) for anyone who faces the same problem.

Thank you

I have the robots enable like you said but I don’t receive any answer too
