If you don’t already have an account with us, your first step is going to be signing up for an account (we offer a free account with 100 free searches per month). Operators are like advanced keywords that help to focus your searches.
- Operators are like advanced keywords that help to focus your searches.
- So instead of seeing millions of results for your search, you only see results that match precisely what you’re looking for.
- Once you have signed up and verified your account, you will need to take note of your SerpApi API key found on your dashboard so that you can use it in the following steps.
- In cases like these, search operators filter out the noise to return laser-targeted results.
- Returned in the relatedSearches.value key (array of related searches) in the official API, our API returns the equivalent in the top level related_searches key (array of related searches).
You can fine tune the results in Bing for any search you make by combining what you’re searching for with an operator. However, if you’re looking for something very specific, broad searches create a lot of results that you have to sift through to find a result that specifically answers your needs. Next we’re going to authenticate via the api_key query parameter and remove the headers entirely as they’re not necessary for any calls to our endpoint.
Step 4: Query Parameters
Search operators are very powerful commands you add to your queries to tell a search engine to return a very specific result set. So instead of seeing millions of results for your search, you only see results that match precisely what you’re looking for. You’ll notice from the image that this pulls all indexed pages hosted at the specified IP relating to the search term “soccer”. The search has pulled results from different domains that are hosted on the same server. The images.readLink attribute in the official API which provides the URL for the equivalent API image search can be found at inline_images.serpapi_link in our API. Returned in the images.value key (array of images) in the official API, our API returns bashc the equivalent in the inline_images.items key (array of images).
- The search has pulled results from different domains that are hosted on the same server.
- I heard that Bing’s search engine is powered by RankNet algorithm, but I can’t find a good tutorial on how this process works.
- I would like to know how search engines like Bing generate related searches when the user starts typing into the search box.
What Are Search Operators?
You may want just want to use that because text processing can be dirty business (a lot of junk), so I would use their modules located here and you can read about the algorithms separately. It’s also worth taking a look at our Bing Playground and performing a few searches to see it all in action. The date attribute in our API will return the date displayed in the result, though it can be in the form of a formatted date (e.g. Oct 29, 2020) or a relative date (e.g. 3 days ago). When available, the estimated number of results that was previously found under webPages.totalEstimatedMatches will be available under search_information.total_results in our API. Due to the sheer number of different possible response objects available, I’m only going to cover a few of them directly in this blog post. If your implementation is relatively simple and only uses the q and mkt parameters, then when you make these changes, you should see a full response come back from our endpoint at this stage.
domain:
Bing searches that may be related to other search terms are presented with related search section, typically at the bottom of the search page. The following option symbols streamline results to help you find waht you’re looking for more quickly. There are many of them and they can be combined together to make your searches incredibly powerful. I heard that Bing’s search engine is powered by RankNet algorithm, but I can’t find a good tutorial on how this process works. I would like to find an article or a paper which I can implement myself in Python or Matlab.
Bing Related Searches API
Stack Exchange network consists of 183 Q&A communities including Stack Overflow, the largest, most trusted online community for developers to learn, share their knowledge, and build their careers. Connect and share knowledge within a single location that is structured and easy to search. The dateLastCrawled and datePublished attributes are not available and have no equivalent, however, the datePublishedDisplayText has a similar property in our result named date. All of the above query parameters, with the exception of textDecorations and textFormat can be used as-is or ported to use with our API. Here at SerpApi, we provide our own Bing Search API that can be easily integrated to minimize disruption to your service once the official APIs have been retired.
Returned in the relatedSearches.value key (array of related searches) in the official API, our API returns the equivalent in the top level related_searches key (array of related searches). In cases like these, search operators filter out the noise to return laser-targeted results. I would like to know how search engines like Bing generate related searches when the user starts typing into the search box. Returned in the webPages.value key (an array of results) in the official API, our API returns the equivalent in the top level organic_results key (an array of results).
Step 5: Response Format
The official Bing Search API is soon to be retired on 11th August 2025 (or has already been retired depending on when you’re reading this) and you may be searching for a suitable replacement. You must capitalize the NOT and OR options when you use them or Bing will ignore them. I’m going to give you a definitive list that includes every Bing search operator currently in use, clear instruction on what each one does and an explanation about how to use them all. Python already has a free module that can handle topic modelling in text.
Step 5: Response Format
The official API’s response format differs from our own so there are still changes to make, but we’re part way there. Once you have signed up and verified your account, you will need to take note of your SerpApi API key found on your dashboard so that you can use it in the following steps. Learn how to transition to SerpApi’s Bing Search API to reduce disruption to your service.
