When to Use

• AI grounding — Provide grounded data to improve AI output accuracy
• Natural language search — Search using questions instead of keywords
• Sourced answers — Get answers with inline citations and source URLs
• Structured output — Define custom JSON schemas for structured responses
• Content extraction — Fetch and extract content from specific URLs
• Date-filtered search — Search within specific time periods

Best Practices

• Use natural language — Phrase queries as questions for best results
• Choose depth wisely — "standard" for quick results, "deep" for comprehensive research
• Enable sources — Set includeSources: true to get reference URLs
• Date filtering — Use fromDate/toDate for time-sensitive queries
• Domain control — Use includeDomains/excludeDomains to control sources
• Structured output — Define outputType: "structured" with schema for consistent formatting
