Cannot get it to work with ajax call

Hi Great Plugin,

I am using your plugin and I am moving my site over to a completely ajax setup and your plugin doesn’t seem to take effect in my ajax calls.

I am doing the follows

 $.ajax({
                type: "post",
                dataType: "json",
                url: ajax_url,
                data: {
                    action: 'search_api_post',
                    search: 'tag'
                }
                success: function(response) {

                    console.log(response);

                }
            });

And php call

function search_api_post() {

    $s = sanitize_text_field($_REQUEST['search']);
    $loop = new WP_Query(array(
        'posts_per_page'   => -1,
        's' => $s
    )); 

    // Setup empty array
    $dataPosts = [];
    if ( $loop->have_posts() ) { 

        while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post(); 

            $dataPosts[] = array(
                'title' => get_the_title()
            );

        endwhile;
        wp_reset_query();

        echo json_encode(
            array(
                'error' => false,
                'data' => $dataPosts,
                'message' => 'Succesfully returning results' 
            )
        );

    }else{

        echo json_encode(
            array(
                'error' => true,
                'message' => 'No results found' 
            )
        );

    }  

    die(); 

}

add_action( "wp_ajax_search_api_post", "search_api_post" );
add_action( "wp_ajax_nopriv_search_api_post", "search_api_post" );

Any suggests?

Thanks
