- Description: Finally, there is a solution to scrape 100 search results from Google after they dropped the num parameter: introducing the Google Fast Light API

**The API documented here has been discontinued because Google now limits the underlying endpoint to only 3 organic results. We recommend using the* [**Google Light API*](https://serpapi.com/google-light-api) *as an alternative.*

Google recently discontinued support for showing up to 100 results per page in search, a parameter that many SEO professionals, data companies, and researchers have relied on for years. [This change](https://serpapi.com/blog/google-experiments-with-restricting-results-per-page/) disrupts established workflows, making large-scale data collection, competitor analysis, and keyword research less efficient.

## API to scrape 100 search results from Google

Introducing Google Light Fast API: 

[Google Light Fast API - SerpApiScrape Google organic results faster than ever with SerpApi’s Google Light Fast API. Title, link, snippet, and more in code friendly JSON format.![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/a5/00/a5004977-0dd2-4bcd-9292-dd0e05d4c59e/content/images/icon/apple-touch-icon-80.png)SerpApiSerpApi![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/a5/00/a5004977-0dd2-4bcd-9292-dd0e05d4c59e/content/images/thumbnail/serpapi-text-logo-621a467e3b1e907622c18a6ac81455032e9784d6a86e81a1b4f6407d3f0120a6-70.svg)](https://serpapi.com/google-light-fast-api)

With this API, you can scrape 100 search results from Google with one single request. This API only contains the `organic_results` , which makes it faster compared to our regular Google Search API.

You can access this API with a single GET request:

```
https://serpapi.com/search.json?engine=google_light_fast&q=coffee&api_key=YOUR_API_KEY&num=100
```

- You can replace `coffee` with any keyword you want to search for.
- To get your API key, you can register for free at [SerpApi](http://serpapi.com?utm%5Fsource=blog%5Fgoogle%5Flight%5Ffast%5Fapi).

We also have a playground where you can test this API directly from your browser:

Scraping 100 search results from Google

## Scraping other rich results from Google

If you need the complete Google results on the first page, you can still use our Google Search API in order to scrape AI Overview answer, knowledge graph, and so on. So, if you need both `100 organic results` and `complete rich results` , you only need to perform two searches:

- 1 to get the 100 organic results via the new Google Fast Light API
- 2 to get the rich results on the Google Search API.

No need to paginate the results or run 10 searches anymore.

## Conclusion

The removal of the num=100 (`&num=100`) parameter from Google has a lot of impacts on many SEO companies that need to serve ranking data for their clients. Many search API providers fail to scrape 100 search results, which results in many errors and misinformation on their platform.

This issue was also mentioned a couple of times on X (Twitter) by many search engine professionals,
