We’re glad to inform you that a new Google SERP Feature, Discussions and Forums, is now supported in the Google SERP API results!
As described in Google’s announcement, the Discussions and Forums feature enriches search results with advice, experiences, and discussions from various forums across the web. For instance, if you’re searching for the best dog breed, alongside traditional web results, Google will show you links to forum posts sharing relevant advice and real experiences.
Now you can seamlessly obtain data from this feature through our Google SERP API, ensuring you have access to the most up-to-date and relevant information for your queries. Here’s an example of how the Discussions and Forums feature appears in the results.
