SearchActionType
About
Microformats2 is the second generation of the 
Microformats specification designed to make publishing and parsing structured data in 
HTML easier for both authors and developers.
It introduces a simplified class naming system, supports formats including h-card, h-entry, h-event, and h-product, provides built-in 
JSON parsing models, and improves backward compatibility and extensibility.
SearchAction is a structured data type from Schema.org that describes a website's search capability.
Before November 2024, it was used by 
Google to enable the "Sitelinks Search Box" feature, which displayed a search bar for a website directly within the search results snippet. However, since Google deprecated this feature, there is no evidence that other search engines or apps currently support it.
