SearchAPI.io tool searchapi-io-gemini on looot: input fields, $0.004 per call, output shape, and code to run it with curl, JavaScript or Python.

Get Google Gemini’s AI-generated answers in structured JSON. This API returns AI-synthesized text blocks, a generated markdown version of the answer, the cited grounding reference links, follow-up related questions, inline images, inline videos, typed structured cards, and response metadata (model and conversation token).

• Tool id: searchapi-io-gemini
• Provider: SearchAPI.io
• Job: Gemini search (search.gemini)
• Price: $0.004 per call. A call that fails at the provider costs $0.

Inputs

Output

Shape of the run’s result, checked against 2 real answers:

{ markdown, text_blocks: { type, items: { type, answer, reference_indexes: integer[] }[], answer, reference_indexes: integer[] }[], reference_links: { link, rank, index, title, source, favicon, snippet }[], search_metadata: { id, status, html_url, json_url, created_at, request_url, total_time_taken, parsing_time_taken, request_time_taken }, response_metadata: { model, language, detected_location, conversation_token }, search_parameters: { q, engine } }

Run it

Every call needs your API token in LOOOT_TOKEN; Sign in shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With wait: 30 the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll GET /v1/runs/<runId>.

Example input with placeholder values:

curl -X POST "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOOT_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -d '{"endpointId":"searchapi-io-gemini","input":{"q":"<q>","engine":"gemini"},"wait":30}'

const response = await fetch("https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.LOOOT_TOKEN}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Idempotency-Key": crypto.randomUUID(),
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    endpointId: "searchapi-io-gemini",
    input: {
      q: "<q>",
      engine: "gemini",
    },
    wait: 30,
  }),
});
const run = await response.json();
console.log(run.status, run.result);

import os
import uuid

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs",
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['LOOOT_TOKEN']}",
        "Idempotency-Key": str(uuid.uuid4()),
    },
    json={
        "endpointId": "searchapi-io-gemini",
        "input": {
            "q": "<q>",
            "engine": "gemini",
        },
        "wait": 30,
    },
    timeout=90,
)
run = response.json()
print(run["status"], run.get("result"))
