Provider-supported language code, such as en.

One-based page number.

safe'active' | 'off'

Provider safe-search filtering.

time_rangestring

Provider-supported time filter.

device'desktop' | 'mobile' | 'tablet'

Device presentation for the source request.

htmlboolean

Location to search around, such as Austin, TX.

uulestring

Encoded Google location; cannot be combined with location or coordinates.

lrstring

Restrict results to language codes joined with |.

nfpr0 | 1

Control automatic spelling correction (1 excludes corrected results).

filter0 | 1

Control omitted/similar results filtering (1 enables it).

startinteger

Source result offset, starting at zero. The provider determines page size.

output'json' | 'html' | 'md' | 'null' nullable

Response content format. md returns Markdown in data.content with data.format=md; the JSON success/request envelope remains. Accept: text/markdown also selects Markdown unless output or html=true is explicit. html is an alias for html=true and retains the existing Brotli/Base64 source format.

json_restrictorstring nullable

Select fields within data.content for JSON or Markdown. Supports comma-separated paths, non-negative array indices, half-open slices [0:3] (either bound may be omitted), [] and .{nested,subqueries}. Up to128 selections and16 levels. Missing fields are omitted; selected declared fields retain their zero defaults. The request envelope and credit headers remain. Include next_page_token when pagination is needed. Incompatible with HTML output. This changes response presentation only; tracing-enabled history retains the complete JSON result.

no_cacheboolean nullable

Accepted for compatibility. Searches are always fetched without a result cache for either value; normal successful-request billing applies.

Example request

{
  "json_restrictor": "results[].{title,url},has_next_page,next_page_token"
}

Response

Request completed. One credit is charged, including recognized empty or unavailable source results and source inventory changes discovered after a valid continuation is fetched. These completed responses may preserve verified partial results; operational failures remain errors.
