# Predictive search now returns query suggestions

As of January 23, 2023, a new resource type for query suggestions has been added to the [Predictive Search API](https://shopify.dev/api/ajax/reference/predictive-search#section-response).

Notably, several other improvements have been made to the Predictive Search API:

* **Resources\[type]** is now optional with a default set to queries, products, collections and pages
* Performance improvements when requesting multiple resource types
* New parameter: **limit\_scope** to decide whether the limit parameter applies to the total number of returned results, or the total that each resource type returns.
