SerpApi Weekly Changelog: July 20-26, 2026

SerpApi added a new Transport Options answer box to its Google Search API, enabling programmatic access to structured train and public transit data for AI-powered travel assistants and trip planners. The company also fixed bugs across multiple APIs, including missing sports standings, inline images, and sitelinks extraction, and resolved 500 errors in the DuckDuckGo and Google Scholar Case Law APIs.

The past week at SerpApi brought new features, expanded scraping capabilities, steady improvements to existing APIs, and a range of important bug fixes. ⭐️ Top Updates Google Search API Google Search API We've expanded our Google Search API to extract the Transport Options answer box https://serpapi.com/direct-answer-box-api api-examples-transport-options-answer-box , making it easy to programmatically access train and public transit information directly from Google Search. The new response includes available routes, departure and arrival times, trip duration, transfers, fares, operators, ticket providers, and detailed itinerary segments in a structured JSON format. This makes it simple to build AI-powered travel assistants, trip planners, multimodal routing applications, fare comparison tools, and conversational agents that can answer transportation questions or recommend the best travel options without the complexity of parsing Google's rich answer boxes.
