The current Serper node only wraps the basic Google Web Search endpoint with no configurable options. Users have no way to access News, Images, Videos, Places, Shopping, Scholar, Patents, Autocomplete or Web Scraping from within Flowise and cannot control parameters like result count, language, country, or time range.

Problem Statement

The current Serper node only wraps the basic Google Web Search endpoint with no configurable options. Users have no way to access News, Images, Videos, Places, Shopping, Scholar, Patents, Autocomplete or Web Scraping from within Flowise and cannot control parameters like result count, language, country, or time range.

Proposed Solution

Upgrade the existing Serper node (backward compatible, version 2.0) to expose the full Serper.dev API:

  • Endpoint selector: Web Search, News, Images, Videos, Places, Maps, Shopping, Scholar, Patents, Autocomplete, Web Scrape (11 total)
  • Optional parameters: gl (country), hl (language), num (result count), page, tbs (time filter), location, autocorrect, imgar, imgtype, ll (map coordinates)
  • All new params are optional existing chatflows continue to work unchanged
  • No new dependencies required
