Search API Tool

The SearchAPITool enables agents to perform web searches using supported search engines. It is useful for agents that need to fetch real-time information, facts, or context from the internet or other external sources.

This tool allows your agent to send queries to search APIs and use the results to improve its responses or decision-making during a workflow.
