Not pressing: API ID and secret not needed #3

This lab 100% works without authentication. I generated but never used, and passed all tests, and could make requests from browser. This section of the doc explains why:

Rate limit

The Search API has a custom rate limit. For requests using Basic Authentication, OAuth, or client ID and secret, you can make up to 30 requests per minute. For unauthenticated requests, the rate limit allows you to make up to 10 requests per minute.

Could simplify lab.
