I'm trying to figure out how to force google custom search to give me back 20 results per page.
I've tried to send this REST request configuring my new Custom Search Engine to:
Standard edition: Free, ads are required on results pages.
https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key=AIzaSyCgGuZie_Xo-hOECNXOTKp5Yk7deryqro8&cx=015864032944730029962:5ipe0q27hgy&q=test&alt=json&num=20
IT NOT WORKS!
but
https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key=AIzaSyCgGuZie_Xo-hOECNXOTKp5Yk7deryqro8&cx=015864032944730029962:5ipe0q27hgy&q=test&alt=json&num=10
IT WORKS!
But reading documentation at
https://developers.google.com/custom-search/docs/xml_results#numsp
it says that:
Optional. The num parameter identifies the number of search results to return.
The default num value is 10, and the maximum value is 20. If you request more than 20 results, only 20 results will be returned.
Note: If the total number of search results is less than the requested number of results, all available search results will be returned.
Someone has experienced this problem?
PS: I've tried also to send that REST request configuring my new Custom Search Engine to:
Site Search: Starts at $100 per year, ads are optional on results pages.
But nothing has changed no way to obtain 20 results in a request/page
This documentation url has descriptions of each parameter. It also says num is restricted to integers between 1 and 10, inclusive.

i have this code
("https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=".$twitteruser.'&count=500'
But it is giving me only 200 records , I found in twitter document that it will give 3200 tweets.Is i am doing wrong what should i do to get that much tweet.
Since there is no page system in twitter 's API, to go throught timelines, you must use the "max_id" parameter.
Here is an helpful link that explains how to work with timelines with nice illustrations: https://dev.twitter.com/rest/public/timelines.
Edit: here is how you do it.
"To use max_id correctly, an application’s first request to a timeline endpoint should only specify a count."
Make your request "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=".$twitteruser.'&count=500 (you can put 200).
Then when you get all your data, " keep track of the lowest ID received" and use it as parameter (the same way you do for the count) for your next request. it will give you the 200 next posts with a lower id than the one you specified. Do it again until you reach the end.
I'm trying to get all my job bookmarks (30+) via Linkedin Rest API but it seems that every call only returns the same exact & only 10 records max.
GET https://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~/job-bookmarks
then I found the end https://developer.linkedin.com/docs/rest-api
It seems that I can pass the parameter - count: The maximum number of items you want included in the result set. So I thought maybe I can just add that at the end of the GET url...
New query GET https://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~/job-bookmarks&count=30
then I got an error - 400 Bad Request
Does someone know how to solve this problem? Many thanks!
You need to start the query string with a '?' instead of '&'.
https://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~/job-bookmarks?count=30
You use '&' to separate query parameters. For example if you wanted to page through all the job book marks you could use the 'start' parameter to do offset paging. So the path to get the next page if you have more than 30 bookmarks would look like this.
https://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~/job-bookmarks?count=30&start=31
I'm using the YouTube Search API to grab 5 videos per time under a specific keyword. But I've been trying and trying, but couldent find the parameter for the start index. Does anyone know how to add it, so it gets the next 5 videos etc..?
Current URL I have:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?part=snippet&q=wiz+khalifa&type=video&key=AIzaSyB9UW36sMDA9rja_J0ynSYVcNY4G25
In the results of your first query, you should get back a nextPageToken field.
When you make the request for the next page, you must send this value as the pageToken.
So you need to add pageToken=XXXXX to your query, where XXXXX is the value you received in nextPageToken.
Hope this helps
I have implemented google custom search (https://developers.google.com/custom-search/json-api/v1/reference/cse/list#request) that searches flickr and other sources on my site and now suddenly it gives me very wierd results.
My query looks like this (key and search engine id removed)
https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?num=10&rights=cc_attribute&searchType=image&safe=high&key={key}&cx={searchengine}&q=cat&start=1
So a search on 'cat' obviously gives totalResult:219000 in the response. I get 10 result per request but when I use start=11
https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?num=10&rights=cc_attribute&searchType=image&safe=high&key={key}&cx={searchengine}&q=cat&start=11
I get totalResults:12!
What am I doing wrong? This used to work.
I am making some PHP code which takes a given search phrase and url and searches through the google search results until it finds the url (only first 100 results). My problem is, this is only working for the US. I have tried adding the "&cr=" option, but it still on returns US results.
The full URL I am using for the request is:
https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key=API_KEY&cx=CX_VALUE&q=KEYWORD&cr=COUNTRY&alt=JSON
Does anyone have any experience with this? I want to be able to see UK results. Tried inserting &cr=countryUK , but still only does US results.
Thanks :)

Use the gl=<country code> param to limit it to your country of choice (so gl=gb for the uk).
