Why would one use the search at all in this case of using the UID?
You can directly get the resource with the UID


http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/api/organisationUnits/ImspTQPwCqd gives Sierra Leone


http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/api/organisationUnits/search/Sierra%20Leone is the search

Hi, try the uid. For a web API user there is only one id (which is the uid). We don't want to confuse him by saying "uid" in the docs as it implies that there is an "id" as well.

The Web API documentation here: http://www.dhis2.org/doc/snapshot/en/user/html/ch25s04.html
suggests that you can search a resource by its id, code and name. 


I tried the following: http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/api/organisationUnits/search/559
But it says 
Object not found for query: 559

So, does it only work for code and name and not for id?
