Quickstart: Suggest search strings with Bing Autosuggest REST API and Ruby

  • Artikel

Follow this quickstart to learn how to make calls to Bing Autosuggest API and read the JSON response. This simple Ruby application sends a partial search query to the API, and returns suggestions for searches. While this application is written in Ruby, the API is a RESTful Web service compatible with most programming languages.

Prerequisites

Create a new application

  1. Create a new Ruby file in your favorite IDE or editor. Add the following requirements:

    require 'net/https'
require 'uri'
require 'json'

  2. Create variables for your API host and path, market code, and partial search query.

    subscriptionKey = 'enter your key here'
host = 'https://api.bing.microsoft.com'
path = '/v7.0/Suggestions'
mkt = 'en-US'
query = 'sail'

  3. Create a parameters string by appending your market code to the mkt= parameter, and appending your query to the q= parameter. Then, construct your request URI by combining the API host, path, and the parameters string.

    params = '?mkt=' + mkt + '&q=' + query
uri = URI (host + path + params)

Create and send an API request

  1. Create a request with your URI, and add your subscription key to the Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key header.

    request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri)
request['Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key'] = subscriptionKey

  2. Send the request, and store the response.

    response = Net::HTTP.start(uri.host, uri.port, :use_ssl => uri.scheme == 'https') do |http|
    http.request (request)
end

  3. Print the JSON response.

    puts JSON::pretty_generate (JSON (response.body))

Example JSON response

A successful response is returned in JSON, as shown in the following example:
