Google Search Tool

The Google Search Tool allows users to perform a Google search by providing a topic name. The tool gathers relevant information from the web and presents it in a structured format.

Steps to Use the Google Search Tool​

Step 1: Access the Tool​

  • Click on Add User Step.
  • From the available options, select the Google Search Tool.

Step 2: Input the Topic Name​

You need to provide the name of the topic you want to search. You have two options for entering the topic name:

  • Manual Entry: Type the name of the topic directly into the input field.
  • User Input Variable: Use a user input variable to dynamically provide the topic name. To use input variables within your topic name, use the syntax {{variable_name}} to access the value of an input variable. For example, if there is an input parameter named “searchTopic”, you can access its value using {{searchTopic}}.

Step 3: Configure Guardrails Validators (Optional)​

You can set up guardrails validators to ensure the search results meet certain criteria. Set up validators based on your specific needs. This may include rules for filtering out low-quality results, ensuring relevance, or other criteria.

Once you have entered the topic name and configured any necessary validators, initiate the search:

  1. Run the tool: Click the Run button to start the Google search process.
  2. Results: The tool will process your request and perform a Google search based on the provided topic name.

Step 5: View the Output​

The search results will be displayed in the results section. The results will be presented in a structured format, often in plain text or JSON, depending on the nature of the output.

Step 6: Utilize the Results​

You can now use the search results for further processing, analysis, or integration into your application.

Tips for Effective Use​

  • Specific Topics: Use specific and clear topic names to get the most relevant search results.
  • Effective Guardrails: Apply guardrails validators to narrow down the search results to the most relevant ones.
  • Review Results: Carefully review the search results to ensure they meet your requirements.
