Thordata SERP API integration
Thordata's SERP API runs live web searches on Google, Bing, Yandex and DuckDuckGo from real devices and proxies and returns each results page parsed as JSON (organic results, knowledge panels, people also ask, news, images, related searches, pagination; Google can add its AI Overview). Only searches answered with status 200 are billed, and an identical search repeated within 5 minutes is served free from cache. Thordata's other engines (Google News, Images, Maps, Shopping, Jobs, Scholar, Flights, Hotels, Trends, Lens, Play, Finance, Patents, AI Mode, Bing verticals) are not exposed because their answers are undocumented, nor are the token usage query, the Universal Scraping, WebPage and Web Scraper APIs and the proxy products, which use other credentials. Authentication is the SERP API token from the Thordata dashboard (SERP API, API Playground, Token), sent as a Bearer token.

The workflow builds itself.
What you can do with Thordata SERP API
Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.
Each badge shows the default agent permission of an endpoint (allowed: an agent calls it without asking; ask first: you are asked before an agent calls it, when the agent or chat asks permission for sensitive actions; never: no agent may call it), which every user can change endpoint by endpoint in their credential settings.
Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.
