When trying to register an empty search I get the following result: `{"errors":["Missing required parameter: query"]}` This is the payload executed at engines/local-test/click.json: `{"query":"","document_id":"4c1e9616-6da9-4ef8-9a89-0afc4a034116","request_id":"9243e458-1513-400e-81a7-4c2627b2ea66","tags":["results"]}` You can test this easily using the Reference UI available in the engine. Is there a way to register the clicks for an empty search? Kind regards, Sam ---
