Search Bing by keyword and get the first results page, about 10 results, each with rank, title, link, displayed URL and snippet, plus the date Bing shows before a snippet. Choose the market with country and language. Only the first page is available.
Price $0.56 per 1,000 requests ($0.000556 per call). Failed calls and empty results are not charged. Synchronous. For slow jobs add "mode": "async" to the body, take the job_id and poll.
AI prompt
Please help me write a data collection script with the EveryInfra Bing Search endpoint (bing/search).
How the endpoint works:
- Request: POST https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/social with the header Authorization: Bearer <API key>. Read the key from the EVERYINFRA_API_KEY environment variable and never hard-code it.
- In the request body, set platform to bing and action to search, and put the parameters inside params.
- Required parameters:
- keyword: The Bing search query, up to 2,048 characters. Bing syntax such as quoted phrases and minus exclusions works. One call returns the first results page, about 10 results.
- Optional parameters:
- country: A two-letter country code such as us, de or jp that sets which market Bing searches. It does not filter results by where the site is hosted.
- language: A two-letter language code such as en or es. It takes effect together with country, searching that language-country market.
- limit: The most rows to return in this call, an integer of 1 or more. The default applies when you leave it out, and a call can return fewer rows.
- Returns a list of records. Main fields of each record: rank (Position on the first results page, fro…), title, url, displayed_url (The URL as Bing displays it under the t…), text, date_text (The date Bing shows in front of the sni…).
- Example request body:
{
"platform": "bing",
"action": "search",
"params": {
"keyword": "python asyncio tutorial"
}
}
- Price: $0.56 per 1,000 requests; failed and empty results are not charged.
- For dozens or hundreds of targets, add "mode": "async" to the body: you get a job_id at once and poll GET https://api.everyinfra.com/api/v1/jobs/{job_id} for the result.
- On 422, fix the request using the suggested parameter names and allowed values in the error; on 429 or 503, wait for Retry-After and try again.
Before writing code, ask me which targets I need, how many, which fields, and what output format I want; then confirm the plan and the rough cost with me.Request parameters

Response example
No sample response is available for these parameters yet. This preview shows the response shape and fields from the API definition, with … as placeholders; it is not the result of a live call.
{
"id": "req_…",
"platform": "bing",
"action": "search",
"results": [
{
"rank": …,
"title": …,
"url": …,

}Response fields
Business data is in results. The table lists the fields a record can contain; values the platform does not show are never made up.
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
rank | Position on the first results page, from 1. |
title | Title. null when the platform has no titles (for example text-only posts). |
url | Link to the record on the platform. |
displayed_url | The URL as Bing displays it under the title, which may contain › separators; use url to open the page. |
text | Body text with HTML removed, returned in full and never cut short (on a few platforms the list results themselves carry only an excerpt; the platform's field notes say so). |
date_text | The date Bing shows in front of the snippet, as written (such as Oct 24, 2026); absent when Bing shows none. |
platform | Source platform identifier, the same as platform in the request (for example xiaohongshu, tiktok). |

- Microsoft Learn: Bing Web Search Query Parameters cc and mkt ↗
Microsoft's documentation says Bing web search takes a two-letter country code in cc for the country results come from, and a language-country market in mkt, and that the two cannot be combined. The source confirms only that Bing separates results by country and market; this API's `country` and `language` are defined by EveryInfra (given together they select a language-country market), are not parameters of that official API, and say nothing about result counts or paging.
