Bing Custom Search Adding URLs

Question

Bing Custom Search Adding URLs

Manisha Goteti 20

Hi

I am looking for API where I can add my Urls directly to Bing Custom Search against having to add in Bing Custom Search Portal.

The below api is not working and throwing an error: "No resource found".

"{endpoint}/indexer/{search_instance_name}/urls/add"

Can you direct us to the right documentation or GitHub repo that we can refer to.

Thank you

Manisha

@Manisha Goteti Could you add a link to the page which mentions that the URLs can be added through API? AFAIK the bing custom search portal is the only available option to add URLs and configure the custom search endpoint.

Hi

Thank you for your response.

Per my requirement, I am currently designing a web app wherein, I can add web urls from my web app to Copilot Studio and receive response from these urls . Also, I would like my citations to give me pointers to the added web urls.

However, there are certain constraints to add some of the web urls to knowledge base of Copilot Studio. Hence, I have chosen Bing Custom Search.
Could you please provide an alternative to add the urls.

Hi,

I figured a way to add urls programmatically to add to public urls. But due to below constraints I do not have a choice but to use Bing Custom search:

The website can't include a query string.

The website can't be more than two levels deep

Up to 4 public websites and up to 4 Microsoft internal sites can be added.

However, Bing custom search does not have an API to add urls externally. Could you please suggest an alternate approach.

Thank you

Manisha
