Google Lens Image Sources API
Our Google Lens Image Sources API allows you to scrape results from the Google Lens image sources page after performed an image search. The results contain title, source, link and other data.
The API is accessed through the following endpoint: /search?engine=google_lens_image_sources
. A user may query the following: https://serpapi.com/search?engine=google_lens_image_sources
utilizing a GET
request. Head to the playground for a live and interactive demo.
API Parameters
Search Query
page_token
Required
Parameter defines the token needed to retrieve image sources in Google Lens. The token is generated by SerpApi using our Google Lens API.
Localization
hl
Optional
Parameter defines the language to use for the Google Lens Image Sources search. It's a two-letter language code. (e.g., en
for English, es
for Spanish, or fr
for French). Head to the Google languages page for a full list of supported Google languages.
country
Optional
Parameter defines the specific country location to use for the Google Lens Image Sources search. It's a two-letter country code. (e.g., us
for United States, fr
for France, or de
for Germany). Head to the Google Lens countries page for a full list of supported Google Lens countries.
Serpapi Parameters
engine
Required
Set parameter to google_lens_image_sources
to use the Google Lens Image Sources API engine.
no_cache
Optional
Parameter will force SerpApi to fetch the Google Lens Image Sources results even if a cached version is already present. A cache is served only if the query and all parameters are exactly the same. Cache expires after 1h. Cached searches are free, and are not counted towards your searches per month. It can be set to false
(default) to allow results from the cache, or true
to disallow results from the cache. no_cache and async parameters should not be used together.
async
Optional
Parameter defines the way you want to submit your search to SerpApi. It can be set to false
(default) to open an HTTP connection and keep it open until you got your search results, or true
to just submit your search to SerpApi and retrieve them later. In this case, you'll need to use our Searches Archive API to retrieve your results. async and no_cache parameters should not be used together. async should not be used on accounts with Ludicrous Speed enabled.
zero_trace
Optional
Enterprise only. Parameter enables ZeroTrace mode. It can be set to false
(default) or true
. Enable this mode to skip storing search parameters, search files, and search metadata on our servers. This may make debugging more difficult.
API Results
JSON Results
JSON output includes structured data for "Image Sources".
A search status is accessible through search_metadata.status
. It flows this way: Processing
-> Success
|| Error
. If a search has failed, error
will contain an error message. search_metadata.id
is the search ID inside SerpApi.
HTML Results
This API does not have the full html response. search_metadata.prettify_html_file
contains prettified version of result. It is displayed in playground.
HTML output is useful to debug JSON results or support features not supported yet by SerpApi. HTML output gives you the raw HTML results from Google.
