AI-generated

Summary

Search DuckDuckGo Light for a query, with optional locale, time period, pagination token, and zero data retention settings. Sends the selected values as query parameters to SearchApi.

Inputs

  • Search Query (required) — Search terms or a phrase, sent as q.
  • Localization — Optionally set a locale to target a country and language; defaults to us-en.
  • Filters — Optionally filter results by time period: any time, past day, week, month, or year. The field description also mentions a date range in YYYY-MM-DD..YYYY-MM-DD format.
  • Pagination — Optionally provide a next page token from pagination.next_page_token in a previous response to retrieve another page.
  • Zero Data Retention — Enable zero retention to request that SearchApi disable logging and persistent storage for the request and response.
  • Request Options — Optional HTTP settings: batch input items (default 50 per batch, 1000 ms between batches), allow invalid SSL certificates, use an HTTP proxy, or set the response-header timeout (default 10000 ms).

Output shape

SearchApi response data for the DuckDuckGo Light query.

The response includes pagination data when available; use pagination.next_page_token to request the next page. The provided source pack contains only signatures for the node implementation, so it does not expose the runtime response mapping.
