Hey @deepsuthar496! I'm here to help you out. Let's tackle this challenge together.

To give your chatbot internet access for a real-time search feature using the Google Search API, you can integrate the GoogleSearchAPIWrapper tool into your flow. Here’s how you can set it up:

1. Obtain a Google API Key and CSE ID: Get these from the Google Cloud Console and the Custom Search Engine setup page.

2. Integrate the GoogleSearchAPIWrapper: This component will handle the search query and return the snippet from the most relevant result.

Here is an example of how you might set this up in code:

from langchain_community.utilities.google_search import GoogleSearchAPIWrapper

# Initialize the Google Search API Wrapper with your API key and CSE ID
google_search = GoogleSearchAPIWrapper(google_api_key='YOUR_GOOGLE_API_KEY', google_cse_id='YOUR_CSE_ID')

# Function to perform a search query
def search_query(query):
    result = google_search.search(query)
    return result['snippet']

# Example usage
query = "What is the capital of France?"
print(search_query(query))

Replace 'YOUR_GOOGLE_API_KEY' and 'YOUR_CSE_ID' with your actual Google API key and Custom Search Engine ID. This setup will allow your chatbot to perform real-time searches and return relevant snippets from the search results.

Alternatively, if you are working within a framework that supports custom components, you can use the GoogleSearchAPIWrapperComponent:

from langflow.custom import CustomComponent
from langchain_community.utilities.google_search import GoogleSearchAPIWrapper

class GoogleSearchAPIWrapperComponent(CustomComponent):
    display_name = "GoogleSearchAPIWrapper"
    description = "Wrapper for Google Search API."

    def build_config(self):
        return {
            "google_api_key": {"display_name": "Google API Key", "password": True},
            "google_cse_id": {"display_name": "Google CSE ID", "password": True},
        }

    def build(self, google_api_key: str, google_cse_id: str) -> GoogleSearchAPIWrapper:
        return GoogleSearchAPIWrapper(google_api_key=google_api_key, google_cse_id=google_cse_id)

This setup will allow you to configure the Google Search API credentials securely and use the wrapper to perform search queries ^[1][2][3][4].
