Subject: Yelp deals using the search API

Hello,
           Is there a way I can use Yelp Search API to find whether a
business has deals or not. I see the deals_filter in the search API
which I am trying to use it, when I try to search a particular
business using the API call

For example here is the API call with the deals_filter = true:

"/v2/search?location=%207100%20four%20seasons
%20point,carlsbad,ca&term=Vivace&limit=1&offset=0&sort=0&category_filter=restaurants&deals_filter=true"

It gives me
{"region":{"span":{"latitude_delta":
0.021570038662012792,"longitude_delta":0.025577545166015625},"center":
{"latitude":
33.102254659063732,"longitude":-117.28549003601074}},"total":
0,"businesses":[]}

Now with the deals_filter set to false it actually gives me the
business itself which is what I want:

"/v2/search?location=vivace,7100%20four%20seasons
%20point,carlsbad,ca&limit=1&offset=0&sort=0&category_filter=restaurants&deals_filter=false"

Result:
{"region":{"span":{"latitude_delta":0.0,"longitude_delta":
0.0},"center":{"latitude":
33.099300599999999,"longitude":-117.2854892}},"total":1,"businesses":

So my requirement is:

1. Look whether the business has deals or not. I have the Name,
Address Location of the business. Can I use this to find the
information I am looking for?
2. Is there any support or any plan to work on such requests

Please do let me know!!

Thanks,
Ashish
