概览

AI 生成的概览

让助手通过 Apify 执行 Google 网页与图片搜索，并以 Google Custom Search JSON API 格式返回结果。

功能
以与 Google Custom Search JSON API 相同的 JSON 结构提供 Google 网页搜索结果，包含 title、link、displayLink 和 snippet 字段，并支持图片搜索。它是以远程 MCP 端点形式提供的托管 Apify Actor，同时提供可直接替换的 REST、Open WebUI 和 SearXNG 兼容接口。搜索使用 Google 的纯网页结果视图，不含 AI Overview、广告以及视频和论坛模块。
适用场景
当助手需要实时 Google 搜索结果时适用，也适合需要替换 Google Custom Search JSON API 端点的现有代码或客户端。适合只需要搜索摘要而非完整网页内容的代理场景。
运行要求
使用 mcp.apify.com 上的远程 MCP 端点，无需本地运行时。需要一个免费的 Apify 账户和 Apify API 令牌，通过 Authorization 请求头以 Bearer 形式发送。需要访问 Apify 的网络连接。
安装前请注意
Authorization 请求头携带 Apify API 令牌，这是可计费的凭据，须妥善保密。搜索按每 1,000 次（每次最多 10 条结果）5 美元计费，且无每日上限，可能产生费用。查询内容会发送给 Apify 和 Google。cx 参数虽被接受但会被忽略，原有站点列表需改用 siteSearch 或 site: 运算符传入。

安装

在 SourceWeft 中

  1. 打开 控制台中的 Google Search (via Apify)，将其添加到工作区。
  2. 为需要使用其工具的对话启用该服务。

Web executable，通过 Streamable HTTP。 远程服务在工作区中配置后即可从网页运行时运行。

其他 MCP 客户端

把它添加到你客户端的 mcpServers 配置中。

Google Custom Search JSON API alternative: same requests, same JSON

[Run on Apify]

Google Custom Search API Alternative is an Apify Actor that replaces Google's Custom Search JSON API, which Google has closed to new customers and retires on 1 January 2027. It answers the same /customsearch/v1 requests with the same JSON (items with title, link, displayLink and snippet, plus image search), built from live Google results, at $5 per 1,000 searches with no daily cap.

Price: $5 per 1,000 searches of up to 10 results ($4 on Gold and above) · Run it: https://apify.com/automationnation/google-custom-search-api · Guide: https://retracn.github.io/automationnation-actors/google-custom-search-api/

Quick facts

  • Drop-in endpoint: replace https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1 with https://automationnation--google-custom-search-api.apify.actor/customsearch/v1 and send your Apify token (token=… or Authorization: Bearer) instead of key=.
  • Same parameters: q, num, start, gl, hl, lr, cr, safe, dateRestrict, siteSearch, exactTerms, excludeTerms, orTerms, fileType and searchType=image with its image filters; cx is accepted and ignored.
  • Open WebUI: pick the External web search engine with URL https://automationnation--google-custom-search-api.apify.actor/search and your Apify token as the key, to keep Google results now that Google PSE is closed to new customers.
  • SearXNG-compatible route for AnythingLLM and other SearXNG clients: https://automationnation--google-custom-search-api.apify.actor/searxng?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN returns Google results in SearXNG's JSON format.
  • Same JSON: kind, queries.request and nextPage, searchInformation and items[] with title, htmlTitle, link, displayLink, snippet, htmlSnippet and formattedUrl (image items add mime and image.contextLink, width, height, byteSize, thumbnailLink).
  • Web searches use Google's "Web" results view: ten plain results per page without the AI Overview, ads or video and forum boxes, close to what the API returned.
  • Differences: it searches the whole web (pass site lists as siteSearch or site: operators), totalResults is a lower bound, there is no pagemap, and a request takes about 4–10 seconds.
  • Price: $5 per 1,000 searches of up to 10 results, the price Google charged; searches with no results are free and there is no daily cap.

Use it as a drop-in Custom Search JSON API

Change the endpoint and the key; keep the rest of your code:

BeforeAfter
Endpointhttps://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1https://automationnation--google-custom-search-api.apify.actor/customsearch/v1
Authkey=YOUR_GOOGLE_KEY&cx=YOUR_ENGINE_IDtoken=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN or header Authorization: Bearer YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN
bash
curl "https://automationnation--google-custom-search-api.apify.actor/customsearch/v1?q=best+crm+for+startups&num=10&token=$APIFY_TOKEN"

Python (examples/cse_requests.py) and JavaScript (examples/cse_fetch.mjs) versions are in examples/. The response is the API's JSON: items[].title, link, displayLink, snippet, queries.nextPage and searchInformation; searchType=image works too.

Example input

json
{  "queries": [    "best project management software"  ],  "maxResultsPerQuery": 10}

Run it from code

REST API

bash
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/automationnation~google-custom-search-api/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \  -d '{"queries": ["best project management software"], "maxResultsPerQuery": 10}'

Python — see examples/python_example.py

python
# pip install apify-clientfrom apify_client import ApifyClient
client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")run = client.actor("automationnation/google-custom-search-api").call(run_input={  "queries": [    "best project management software"  ],  "maxResultsPerQuery": 10})for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():    print(item.get("title"), item.get("link"), item.get("displayLink"), item.get("snippet"))

JavaScript — see examples/node_example.mjs

js
// npm install apify-clientimport { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';
const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN' });const run = await client.actor('automationnation/google-custom-search-api').call({  "queries": [    "best project management software"  ],  "maxResultsPerQuery": 10});const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();for (const item of items) console.log(item.title, item.link, item.displayLink, item.snippet);

Use it with AI agents (MCP)

Hosted MCP server URL (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other clients with remote MCP support):

https://mcp.apify.com?tools=automationnation/google-custom-search-api

Local config for Claude Desktop / Cursor — mcp/claude_desktop_config.json:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "google-custom-search-api": {      "command": "npx",      "args": [        "-y",        "@apify/actors-mcp-server",        "--tools",        "automationnation/google-custom-search-api"      ],      "env": {        "APIFY_TOKEN": "YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN"      }    }  }}

FAQ

When does the Custom Search JSON API stop working? Google closed it to new customers and says existing customers have until 1 January 2027 to move to an alternative.

Do I have to rewrite my code? No. Change the endpoint to https://automationnation--google-custom-search-api.apify.actor/customsearch/v1 and send an Apify API token instead of the Google key; the parameters and the JSON response stay the same.

Can I keep my Programmable Search Engine's site list? Not through cx, which is ignored. Pass one site as siteSearch, or several in the query as site:a.com OR site:b.com.

What does it cost? $5 per 1,000 searches of up to 10 results ($4.50 on Silver, $4 on Gold and above), with no daily cap. Google charged $5 per 1,000 after 100 free queries a day; Apify's free plan includes $5 of monthly credit, about 1,000 searches.
