Basic API Requests
We want to keep it as simple as possible on your end. That is why the Bing API is only available via GET requests and by passing the available parameters.
Using the Bing Search API is a straightforward process. You send a GET request to our SERP API and return real time results in a JSON format. In order to scrape Bing via our SERP API, you only need to pass three required parameters to your request:
engine- always set tobingfor this APIq- The keyword you are targeting
The most basic URL example for an authorised request on our Bing API is:
https://serpapi.webscrapingapi.com/v1?engine=bing&api_key=<YOUR_API_KEY>&q=<KEYWORD>
Depending on your implementation, the
q parameter's value should be URL encoded.cURL
