 Search for issues matching a specific string::
 
     # global search
-    gl.search('issues', 'regression')
+    gl.search(gitlab.SEARCH_SCOPE_GLOBAL_ISSUES, 'regression')
 
     # group search
     group = gl.groups.get('mygroup')
-    group.search('issues', 'regression')
+    group.search(gitlab.SEARCH_SCOPE_GROUP_ISSUES, 'regression')
 
     # project search
     project = gl.projects.get('myproject')
-    project.search('issues', 'regression')
+    project.search(gitlab.SEARCH_SCOPE_PROJECT_ISSUES, 'regression')
 
 The ``search()`` methods implement the pagination support::
 
     # get lists of 10 items, and start at page 2
-    gl.search('issues', search_str, page=2, per_page=10)
+    gl.search(gitlab.SEARCH_SCOPE_GLOBAL_ISSUES, search_str, page=2, per_page=10)
 
     # get a generator that will automatically make required API calls for
     # pagination
-    for item in gl.search('issues', search_str, as_list=False):
+    for item in gl.search(gitlab.SEARCH_SCOPE_GLOBAL_ISSUES, search_str, as_list=False):
         do_something(item)
 
 The search API doesn't return objects, but dicts. If you need to act on
 objects, you need to create them explicitly::
 
-    for item in gl.search('issues', search_str, as_list=False):
+    for item in gl.search(gitlab.SEARCH_SCOPE_GLOBAL_ISSUES, search_str, as_list=False):
         issue_project = gl.projects.get(item['project_id'], lazy=True)
         issue = issue_project.issues.get(item['iid'])
         issue.state = 'closed'
         issue.save()
