Features

Up to 20 dataset results per query

Each POST to /v1/serp/google-datasets returns up to 20 dataset matches from Google's dataset index, with the depth param controlling how deep you page. Each result keeps its position in the dataset SERP.

Dataset title, provider, and description

Every result returns the dataset's title, the provider that publishes it, and a description, so you can scan relevance and authority before following the source link.

Source URL and domain

Each item includes the source URL and parsed domain where the dataset is hosted, letting you route users straight to the download or repository page.

Location and language targeting

Set the location and language fields to surface datasets relevant to a region or locale, which matters for government and statistical data published per country.

Dataset type classification

The type field on each result lets you distinguish dataset entries from other blocks returned by Google Dataset Search.

Use cases

Data Discovery

Find public datasets for research, analysis, or machine learning projects.

Market Research

Discover available datasets for competitive analysis and market sizing.

Academic Research

Search for relevant datasets across scientific and government repositories.

Google Dataset Search API — discover public datasets programmatically

The YepAPI Google Dataset Search API returns live results from Google's dataset index as structured JSON. Send a topic and get back matching public datasets with titles, providers, descriptions, source URLs, and domains.

It uses the same key as every other YepAPI endpoint — organic SERP, news, maps, scraping, and AI — so dataset discovery becomes one programmatic step in a larger research pipeline at $0.01 per query.

What is a Google Dataset Search API?

A Google Dataset Search API lets you programmatically query Google's index of public datasets and get structured results instead of browsing the Dataset Search UI. For each dataset it returns the title, the provider that published it, a description, and the source URL and domain where the data is hosted, ordered by position. That means you can answer which datasets exist for a research topic — across government portals, academic repositories, and open-data sites — from a single request, then route directly to the download page without manually searching and clicking through results.

Build your own data discovery tool

With dataset results as JSON you can build a research aggregator, a data-catalog enrichment service, or a literature-and-data discovery assistant. Query a topic, collect provider and source URL for each match, and surface a ranked list of datasets to researchers or analysts. Because the response carries the provider field you can prioritize authoritative sources, and you can chain it with the YepAPI scraping endpoint to fetch metadata or schema from each dataset's landing page automatically.

Google Dataset Search API pricing — $0.01 per query

Each call to /v1/serp/google-datasets costs a flat $0.01 for up to 20 dataset results. No subscriptions, no minimums, no charges per field. SerpApi lists $0.05 per query and enterprise data tools cost far more. With YepAPI the same $0.01 rate covers every SERP engine, so building a data-discovery feature stays inexpensive even across thousands of research queries.

Power academic and market research workflows

Finding the right dataset is often the slowest part of research. Use the endpoint to programmatically surface datasets for a query, compare providers and descriptions, and feed candidates into a screening pipeline. Run the same topic with different language and location values to catch region-specific government and statistical datasets, then hand the source URLs to analysts or downstream automation for ingestion.
