Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://glim.sh/api/v1/web/searchWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, multi-source search across the open web and social platforms (Twitter, Reddit, GitHub) in a single API call, without managing API keys or a scraping stack. It is especially useful when you want to filter by recency or restrict/exclude specific domains. Prefer this over platform-specific sibling endpoints when you want broad web coverage, not just tweets or Reddit posts.
Side effects
- Query returns 0 results if published_within_days is too narrow for the topic or pages lack publish-date metadata
- Domain filter (include_domains) may return sparse results if the domain has limited indexable content
- Noisy SEO-farm results may appear if exclude_domains is not used proactively
- Payment failure (402) if USDC balance is insufficient
- Malformed query may return irrelevant results
Input
Schema · Request body
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| query | string | Search query |
| exclude_domains | array | Exclude results from these domains. Useful for filtering noisy aggregators or SEO farms when you've seen them dominate results (e.g. ['pinterest.com', 'quora.com']). |
| include_domains | array | Restrict results to these domains (e.g. ['arxiv.org']) |
| published_within_days | integer | Restrict to results published within the last N days. Skip this for broad queries - it excludes pages without publish-date metadata. Common values: 1, 7, 30, 365. |
