Google Search Intelligence
Source status - Google Search Intelligence is cataloged as a request-access source for SERP-based search data. It is not exposed as a standard self-serve connector in the current staging pipeline tree.
Use Google Search Console when you need first-party search performance for a verified property. Google Search Intelligence is for competitive and market research data collected from search results.
Current Setup Status
| Capability | Current status |
|---|---|
| App catalog entry | Available by request |
| Source option labels | Search Results, Flight Data, Hotel Data |
| Self-serve setup | Request access / managed setup |
| Clean staging pipeline connector | Not present in the current pipeline tree |
Because the pipeline connector is not present end to end, this page documents the cataloged product shape and the expected managed setup path rather than a self-serve connection flow.
Planned Data Areas
| Stream label | Expected use |
|---|---|
| Search Results | Organic, paid, Maps, and other SERP result blocks for configured queries and locations |
| Flight Data | Google Flights pricing and availability research |
| Hotel Data | Google Hotels pricing, availability, and property research |
Typical Fields
Managed exports are expected to preserve the request context and provider response blocks needed for analysis.
| Field group | Examples |
|---|---|
| Request context | Query, engine, location, language, country, device, run time |
| Result identity | Result type, rank, title, link, display URL, domain |
| Search result metrics | Snippet, sitelinks, position, paid/organic classification |
| Local result context | Address, phone, rating, review count, coordinates when available |
| Travel context | Flight or hotel price, dates, carrier/property, availability where configured |
Exact fields depend on the managed source configuration and the SerpAPI engines enabled for the account.

Verify Setup

Troubleshooting
| Symptom | What to check |
|---|---|
| Connector appears as request-access only | Expected in the current app catalog |
| No self-serve credential form is shown | Expected until a standard pipeline connector is exposed |
| Search results do not match browser results | Check location, country, language, device, and personalization assumptions |
| Need first-party SEO performance | Use Google Search Console instead |
