How to Get Saved Searches by Owner Through REST API?

I see the EAI:ACL documentation mentions that an owner flag can be set. can this be used for getting saved searches based on the owner?
so far with curl I have not gotten the results as excepted (the owner is ignored)

If someone knows can you please give me an example?

here is my curl:

curl-k -u john:Password http://localhost:8089/servicesNS/-/app/saved/searches&eai:acl.owner=john

Solution is to use the search parameter in the HTTP request:

curl-k -u john:Password http://localhost:8089/servicesNS/-/app/saved/searches?search=eai:acl.owner%3Djohn

 

I honestly don't understand why the username endpoint is used. a '-' for any then using search parameter to narrow down to the owner of saved searches works.

this returns saved search owned by nobody and the user. It does not seem to filter to the user alone
