API Parameters

ParameterDefault ValueRequiredDescription
qPizzaYesSearch query term or phrase.
domain-NoGoogle domain to use. Default is google.com.
gl-NoThe two-letter country code for the country you want to limit the search to.
hl-NoThe two-letter language code for the language you want to use for the search.
start-NoSpecifies the result offset for pagination purposes. The offset dictates the number of rows to skip from the beginning of the results. This is useful for accessing subsequent pages of search results. For example, an offset of 0 (the default value) returns the first page of results, 20 returns the second page, 40 returns the third page, and so on. This parameter is especially relevant when used in conjunction with the ‘ll’ parameter for location-based searches.
ll@40.7455096,-74.0083012,14zNoGPS coordinates of the location where the search query is to be performed. This parameter is required if the ‘start’ parameter is present. The format for the ll parameter is @ followed by latitude, longitude, and zoom level, separated by commas. The latitude and longitude should be in decimal degrees, and the zoom level is an integer. Example: @40.7455096,-74.0083012,14z.
