Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the SearchAPI Google Search, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.
Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fsearchapi.io%2Fsearchapi" | shStep 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fsearchapi.io%2Fsearchapi" | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
What an agent can do with SearchAPI Google Search API.
Perform a Google search
List available locations
Get account information
Query and filter SearchAPI Google Search records by parameters
Monitor SearchAPI Google Search operational status and events
GET STARTED
Patterns agents use SearchAPI Google Search API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Communications Operations
Use the SearchAPI Google Search to perform communications operations programmatically. The API provides 3 endpoints covering core functionality including perform a google search, list available locations, get account information.
Call GET /search to perform a google search
Automated Google Search Management
Automate google search operations by combining multiple SearchAPI Google Search endpoints. Agents can list available locations and then get account information in a single workflow.
Call GET /locations to list available locations, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call SearchAPI Google Search endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle apiKey, bearer tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'perform a google search', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring SearchAPI Google Search by hand means picking between its query api_key and bearer token, threading the key onto every /search call, and handling result pagination and rate limits yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import SearchAPI Google Search from the API Directory, store the key once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
SearchAPI Google Search exposes read-only lookups (/search, /locations, /account) that take their query in the request parameters rather than a resource in the URL path, so scope by operation: limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as running a search or listing supported locations, and leave the rest out.
Credential isolation
Your SearchAPI key is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'run a google search' or 'list supported search locations', and Jentic returns the matching SearchAPI operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

Specific to using SearchAPI Google Search API through Jentic.
What authentication does the SearchAPI Google Search use?
The SearchAPI Google Search uses apiKey, bearer authentication. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I perform a google search with the SearchAPI Google Search?
Yes. Use the GET /search endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the SearchAPI Google Search?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I perform a google search through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'perform a google search'. Jentic returns the matching SearchAPI Google Search operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the SearchAPI Google Search have?
The SearchAPI Google Search exposes 3 endpoints covering google search, utilities operations.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the SearchAPI Google Search?
Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which SearchAPI Google Search operations and credentials the agent can use. Since every endpoint here is a read-only lookup, you scope by operation: allow only the calls the agent needs, such as GET /search to run a query or GET /locations to list supported locations, and leave the rest, like GET /account, out. Your SearchAPI key stays encrypted in your instance and is injected only for the operations you permit.
For Agents
Programmatically perform a google search, list available locations. Covers 3 operations with apiKey, bearer authentication.
Use for: I need to perform a google search, I want to available locations, Search for account information, List all records from SearchAPI Google Search
Not supported: Does not handle payments, crm, or developer tools - use for communications only.
SearchAPI provides a real-time Google Search scraping API. Retrieve organic results, knowledge graphs, ads, and more from Google search results programmatically. The API exposes 3 endpoints secured with apiKey, bearer authentication.
