Real-time SERP queries

Search API returns current search engine results for a query. A Beam agent runs the query on a trigger, reads the ranked results, and applies your rule for which entries matter. Matching results are written into your store against the tracked term, with the collection time noted. When the response is empty, or the result shape differs from what the rule expects, the agent skips the write and routes the query to a person, who confirms whether the search changed, the region setting is off, or the term simply returned nothing that run.

Keyword ranking checks

Search API lets you see where a term ranks now. A Beam agent runs your tracked queries on a schedule, reads each position, and applies your rule to record movement against the last run. Changes within the expected range are written to the tracking record automatically. When a term drops or jumps beyond the threshold your rule sets, the agent flags it for a person alongside the numbers, so someone reviews whether it reflects a real shift worth acting on or a temporary result before any report reaches the wider team.

Structured JSON parsing

Search API hands results back as structured JSON. A Beam agent reads the fields it names, applies your mapping rule, and writes titles, links, and positions into your database against the right query. Proxy and CAPTCHA handling stay on the API side, so the agent works from clean parsed output. If a required field is absent or a value fails the format check, the agent holds the row and flags a person, keeping malformed entries out of the ranking tables and dashboards your team reads rather than passing a broken result straight through.
