It helps identify the content, format, and optimization strategies used by top-ranking pages and uncovers opportunities for improving rankings. In this blog post, we’re exploring what SERP analysis is, how to conduct it, and how it can help you.
To use the Google Autocomplete API with Decodo’s infrastructure, follow these steps to streamline data extraction and unlock keyword suggestions efficiently:
Start by logging into your Decodo dashboard. Once inside, choose the Web Scraping API subscription that matches your needs.
If you’ve chosen an Advanced Web Scraping API subscription, you can choose a pre-made Google Suggest template and add your scraping request by clicking Send Request. You’ll then get results in JSON or CSV format.
If you’re into cost-effective scraping with a Core subscription, insert the URL and click Send Request to get HTML results.
For advanced parsing techniques, you can use our AI Parser, which generates the parsing instructions or parses the HTML results into JSON.
You can then feed this data into your SEO tools, AI agents, LLMS, or adtech stack. For automation, Decodo’s dashboard supports task scheduling and bulk input.
What parameters can I use to customize Google Autocomplete API results?
You can fine-tune your Google Autocomplete API queries using several request parameters:
Query – your search query prefix (e.g., “data scra”).
Device_type – select from desktop or mobile devices, and OS.
Geo – choose a specific location, for example, ES or AE.
Locale – country code for location-based results, for example, US.
Session_ID – assign a name to a session.
Which output formats are supported by Google Autocomplete APIs?
Users can retrieve Google Suggest or Autocomplete results in multiple formats, depending on the subscription:
HTML – raw headless browser output, ideal for full-page parsing.
JSON – structured array format for programmatic use.
CSV – structured, ready-to-use output that's easy to read and compatible with spreadsheets and data tools.
How accurate are Google Autocomplete suggestions retrieved via an API?
Autocomplete suggestions from the API are real-time and match what Google’s frontend would return based on:
Live data from Google’s suggestion engine
Your specified query, location, and language
The selected client (which can simulate different browser types)
That said, Google applies some degree of personalization in live search based on browser history or user login. Web Scraping API results offer a cleaner, depersonalized baseline suitable for unbiased keyword research or market trend analysis.
Does my location affect the autocomplete results I get from the API?
Absolutely. Location plays a major role in shaping autocomplete outputs. By customizing the location parameters, you can retrieve highly localized results, down to city or regional preferences. This is essential if you’re running market-specific research or building geo-targeted SEO strategies.
Are the autocomplete suggestions from the API the same as those shown on Google Search?
They're very close, but not always identical. Google’s frontend suggestions can be slightly influenced by browser history, user accounts, and device signals. The API returns raw suggestions based on your inputs, without personal context. That’s ideal when you need consistent, repeatable data unaffected by personalization or search memory.
How can I test different API requests before integrating them into my workflow?
Use the API Playground in your Decodo dashboard to instantly test and debug your Google Autocomplete requests. You can adjust query strings, tweak various parameters, and preview JSON or HTML outputs on the go, no local setup needed. It’s the fastest way to iterate before going full-scale.
