Skills map to peopleFilters.skills on Search People. Use this endpoint to suggest valid skill values as the user types.

  -H "X-Api-Token: YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "query": "python",
    "limit": 5
  }'

import requests

response = requests.post(
    'https://api.ocean.io/v2/autocomplete/skills',
    headers={'X-Api-Token': 'YOUR_API_TOKEN'},
    json={'query': 'python', 'limit': 5},
)
data = response.json()

const response = await fetch('https://api.ocean.io/v2/autocomplete/skills', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { 'X-Api-Token': 'YOUR_API_TOKEN', 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
  body: JSON.stringify({ query: 'python', limit: 5 }),
});
const data = await response.json();

Example response:

{
  "skills": ["Python", "Python Programming", "Python Django", "Python Flask", "Python Data Analysis"]
}

Pass the selected value directly into the skills filter on your people search request. Skill names are case-normalised — use the returned casing exactly.
