Spring Data Rest exposes search resources for other methods in the repository. For example, the findUsersByNameUsingNamedParameters method is exposed at http://localhost:8080/users/search/findUsersByNameUsingNamedParameters?name=User%20Name%201. The following snippet shows the response of a Get request to the preceding URL:

    {
      "_embedded": {
          "users": [
                     {
                       "userid": "UserId1",
                       "name": "User Name 1",
                       "_links": {
                         "self": {
                                "href": "http://localhost:8080/users/1"
                                },
                          "user": {
                                "href": "http://localhost:8080/users/1"
                          },
                         "todos": {
                            "href":    
     "http://localhost:8080/users/1/todos"
                          }
                        }
                     }
                  ]
               },
     "_links": {
      "self": {
          "href":"http://localhost:8080/users/search/
      findUsersByNameUsingNamedParameters?name=User%20Name%201"
