## ⭐️ Top Updates

### [Airbnb Search API](https://serpapi.com/airbnb-search-api)

We've added the new Airbnb Search API, making it easy to scrape places to stay from Airbnb search results. You can search a destination with `q` parameter or a specific map area with `map_bounds` parameter, for your dates and guests, and apply the same filters available on Airbnb, including price range, type of place, bedrooms, beds and bathrooms, property types, amenities, accessibility features, host languages, and booking options like Instant Book, Self check-in, Guest favorite, and Airbnb Luxe. For each place, the API returns its name and type, rating and number of reviews, badges, the total price for the stay with its full breakdown and discounts, bedrooms, beds and bathrooms, free cancellation, GPS coordinates, photos, and more, with results localized across Airbnb domains and currencies. It's ideal for developers building vacation rental market research tools, short-term rental pricing and revenue management platforms, travel planning apps, real estate investment analytics, and AI travel agents that need real-time accommodation data.

### [Google Product API](https://serpapi.com/google-product-api)

The Google Product API is back, rebuilt from the ground up for Google's current Shopping product pages. It returns a product's full details in structured JSON, including stores with prices, shipping and offers, price insights, specifications, ratings and user reviews, top insights, videos, discussions and forums, variants, and related products. A product can be fetched by its `product_id` from the [Google Shopping API](https://serpapi.com/google-shopping-api), or by a `page_token`, the same token accepted by the [Google Immersive Product API](https://serpapi.com/google-immersive-product-api), and you can set `offer_view=true` to also get ratings, reviews, and variants in a single `product_id` search. To make getting started even easier, products returned by the Google Shopping API, Google Shopping Light API, Google Search API (`immersive_products`), and Google AI Mode API (`shopping_results`) now include a ready-to-use `serpapi_product_api` link. It's ideal for developers building price comparison tools, e-commerce analytics and competitor monitoring platforms, product research workflows, and AI shopping assistants that need complete, up-to-date product data.

## 📑 Full List of Updates

### [Google Search API](https://serpapi.com/search-api)

**Bug fixes**

- We have fixed the issue where the API was returning an incorrect `organic_results_state` instead of `Fully empty` when Google returned no organic results but suggested a spelling fix. [Details](https://github.com/serpapi/public-roadmap/issues/4424)

### [Google AI Mode API](https://serpapi.com/google-ai-mode-api) and [Google AI Overview API](https://serpapi.com/google-ai-overview-api)

**Bug fixes**

- We have fixed the issue where the API was, in some cases, missing to extract code blocks inside `text_blocks`, including code blocks nested in lists. [Details](https://github.com/serpapi/public-roadmap/issues/4379)
- We have fixed the issue where the API would return a 500 error in some cases.

### [Google Light Search API](https://serpapi.com/google-light-api)

**Bug fixes**

- We have fixed the issue where the API was, in some cases, missing to extract `knowledge_graph`, and we are now also extracting its `source`. [Details](https://github.com/serpapi/public-roadmap/issues/4343)

### [Google Lens API](https://serpapi.com/google-lens-api)

**Changes**

- We have discontinued the [Google Lens Products API](https://serpapi.com/google-lens-products-api) (`type=products`), since Google no longer supports the Products search type in Google Lens. Requests using it now return an error. [Details](https://github.com/serpapi/public-roadmap/issues/4437)

### [Google Immersive Product API](https://serpapi.com/google-immersive-product-api)

**Features**

- We are now extracting `more_reviews` inside `top_insights` and `link` inside `user_reviews`.

### [Google Trends API](https://serpapi.com/google-trends-api)

**Improvements**

- We have improved the `error` message for requests Google Trends can't process (e.g., invalid or discontinued topic IDs in `q`), so they can now be distinguished from searches that have no results. [Details](https://github.com/serpapi/public-roadmap/issues/4370)

### [Tripadvisor Reviews API](https://serpapi.com/tripadvisor-reviews-api)

**Bug fixes**

- We have fixed the issue where the API was returning empty `reviews` for all searches. [Details](https://github.com/serpapi/public-roadmap/issues/4411)

**Changes**

- As part of this fix, we have discontinued the `translate` and `original_language` parameters. Requests using them now return an error. [Details](https://github.com/serpapi/public-roadmap/issues/4411)

### [Zillow Search API](https://serpapi.com/zillow-search-api)

**Bug fixes**

- We have fixed the issue where sorting by price was not working when `status_type` was set to `rent`. You can now use the new `paymenta` and `paymentd` options of the `sort_by` parameter to sort rentals by price. [Details](https://github.com/serpapi/public-roadmap/issues/4292)

### [Bing Search API](https://serpapi.com/bing-search-api)

**Features**

- We are now extracting more `finance_answer` details, such as `filters`, `analyst_rating`, `pe_ratio`, and `related_stocks`, documented on the new [Bing Finance Answer API](https://serpapi.com/bing-finance-answer) page. [Details](https://github.com/serpapi/public-roadmap/issues/4233)
