Web Search Tool

Use the Web Search Tool to pull data from the internet into Go

Web Search is a powerful new tool in Go that allows you to retrieve data from the internet. This feature is particularly useful for data enrichment tasks, such as company and competitor research, where a foundation model needs context from the web to provide the best answer.


You can use the Web Search tool to:

  • Pull real-time data from the web to answer questions at scale
  • Format results as Text, Collection, JSON, or Select/Multi-select properties
  • Combine Web Search with Nested Collections for multi-layered research

Watch this video for a short guide on how to use the Web Search tool:


Setting up Web Search

  1. Create a new property in your project
  2. Set the Tool to Web Search
  3. Configure the property type (Text, Collection, JSON, Select, or Multi-select)
  4. Write your prompt, using @ to reference other properties as input variables

Unsure which property type to use? Consider the following framework:

  • Text Properties: Use for open-ended queries or detailed information retrieval
  • Select/Multi-select Properties: Ideal for categorization or multiple-choice outputs
  • JSON Properties: Structured data output for complex information
  • Collection Properties: Enable multi-layered research and data structuring

Web Search Tool does not currently output citations or sources, but this is on the roadmap.
