https://forum.contextualelectronics.com/t/digikey-search-link-changed/5181 suggests that the search URL changed sometime around April 2022, and provides an updated search URL.

https://www.digikey.com/short/8c2wtm0z provides an alternative method for generating links.

Using the method from the Digi-Key document while omitting the Vendor Identification Number (I suspect this is a Digi-Key marketplace vendor ID) component of the link worked. I'll put together a PR with the fix.
