In Commerce sites you can now search for categories in Studio library. For Salesforce Commerce Cloud B2C it is fully implemented as fulltext search within the id and name field. To support these new REST call it is necessary to extend the Open Commerce API Settings (Data API) in you sandbox by adding the new line: " {"resource_id": "/category_search", "methods": "post" , "read_attributes": "(**)", "write_attributes": "(**)"},".

For HCL Commerce and SAP Commerce Cloud category search is also available but only as simple id search, without fulltext search capabilities or search within names.

Please note that category search only works on the top level store or product catalog node in the e-commerce library. A search for categories below another category is not possible.
