Problem with grabbing gear results with API

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

So earlier today I noticed that the command in my admin that searches for gears was not working. At first, I thought it may have been an issue with the website I use for grabbing the results, but after doing some quick tests I noticed that my audio search was still working fine, so it wasn’t the website. The website I use is rprxy.xyz but for my admin, I use the search API part of their website which is search.rprxy.xyz. Below I will post the entire command that is in my admin, along with the link that would normally be used to find gear results. For testing and proof that the site works for other categories, I will also post a link that leads to audio results. Keep in mind that like I stated above, this did work just a couple of days ago just fine and it returned gear results so I very much doubt it has to do with the website.

This is a tablet admin by the way, so all of the NewTab() functions create a tablet around your character that can be clicked on if it has a function() connected to it.

Roblox recently removed that endpoint for accessing search results, but if you follow the steps on the Wiki page here, you will find that this way will still work.
