  description: The anonymous read endpoints behind westernpower.com.au itself — site search, the news article feed and the careers vacancy feed. These are internal endpoints of the Optimizely/EPiServer corporate site, declared in the site's JavaScript bundle (`/static/assets/app.*.js`) and reachable without authentication. `robots.txt` disallows `/api/` to crawlers; Western Power publishes no documentation, terms of use or SLA for them. This description was DERIVED BY API EVANGELIST from live probes on 2026-07-27 and is not published by Western Power.

      description: Full-site search over the corporate site, backed by Optimizely Find.
