# Search Console across every site of the workspace

`GET /v1/search/overview`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://frontshelf.io/api`
- URL: `https://frontshelf.io/api/v1/search/overview`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Every site with a Search Console property, its clicks and impressions over `range` with the comparison beside them (`sites[]`: `source`, `totals`, `daily`, `coverage`, `tag_ids`), the Domain properties awaiting a choice of site (`unassigned[]`; your human chooses in the dashboard), the property import's state (`import`: idle, queued or running) and the workspace's tags, each name in its `observed` block. `tag` keeps that tag's sites and adds `combined` figures. A site with no figures yet says why in `source.wait`; a period with none is null, never 0. Free. While `import.state` is not idle, call it again in a few seconds. Next: gsc_series_get or gsc_table_get for one site.

## Query parameters

- `type` 'web' | 'image' | 'video' | 'news' | 'discover' | 'googleNews': The Google search surface: web (default), image, video, news, discover or googleNews. Discover and Google News have no query dimension and no position.
- `range` union: The dates, as Pacific calendar days: a word (yesterday, 7d, 14d, 28d, 3m, 6m, 12m, 16m, this_month, last_month, this_quarter, last_quarter, ytd, all; last:<days>; <start>..<end>) or the object it stands for ({preset}, {last_days: n}, {start, end} as YYYY-MM-DD). Default 28d.

## Response `200`

Search Console across every site of the workspace

- object
  - `summary` string, required: The answer in one or two sentences, with the numbers it rests on.
  - `warnings` string[], required: What limits this answer (a cap, a read that was cut short). Empty when nothing does.
  - `next_actions` object[], required: What to call next, best first. Follow them.
    - `capability` string, required: What to call next: a capability.
    - `arguments` object, required: Its arguments, complete; pass them as they are.
    - `instruction` string, required: What to do, written to you.

    - `name` string, required
    - `origin` string, required
    - `source` object, required
      - `source_id` string, required: The property's id (ssrc_…), the `source_id` the other gsc reads take.

      - `kind` 'domain' | 'url_prefix', required
