  --url 'https://serpens.p.rapidapi.com/api/v1/search?q=site%3Adocs.ai.google.dev&gl=us&hl=en&format=json' \
  --header 'x-rapidapi-host: serpens.p.rapidapi.com' \
  --header 'x-rapidapi-key: YOUR_KEY'

Build this for your own domain

Free tier, no card. One endpoint returns organic results, the AI Overview and its citations together, so ranking and citation come out of the same call.
