Content Analysis Search API

Scrape Content Analysis Search data with one API call. Returns paginated web citations (news, blogs, ecommerce, message-boards, organization pages) that mention the keyword, each scored on a 6-axis emotional sentiment model (anger, happiness, love, sadness, share, fun) plus positive/negative/neutral connotation probabilities. This is web-wide brand listening over DataForSEO's citation database — page-level mentions, not native platform posts. Cursor-paginated via `cursor`; `total` is the global match count, not the page size.

Content Analysis API

What can you do with the Search API?

The Search endpoint gives you structured Content Analysis data with computed fields in a single request. No scraping infrastructure to build or maintain.

Example Request

curl -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  "https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/content_analysis/search?keyword=openai"
import requests

response = requests.get(
    "https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/content_analysis/search",
    params={
    'keyword': 'openai',
    },
    headers={"x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY"},
)

data = response.json()
const response = await fetch(
  "https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/content_analysis/search?keyword=openai",
  {
    headers: { "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY" },
  },
);

const data = await response.json();

Parameters

ParameterRequiredDescription

How do I get web mentions of a brand with an API?
Send a GET request to /v1/content_analysis/search with the keyword parameter set to your brand or term. You receive a paginated feed of web pages citing it — each with URL, domain, country, language, title, snippet, 6-axis sentiment, and a positive/negative/neutral connotation split.
What fields does each search result include?
Each item has url, domain and main_domain, country, language, domain_rank, page_types, title, snippet, a 6-axis sentiment object (anger, happiness, love, sadness, share, fun), a connotation split, rating, text_category, and date_published — all in one unified JSON shape.
How does pagination work on the search endpoint?
Search is cursor-paginated. Pass cursor and read next_cursor from the response to fetch the next page; next_cursor is omitted, not null, when there are no more pages. The total field is the global match count, not the page size, so it can run into the millions.
Can I filter mentions by page type?
Yes. Use page_type with a CSV of ecommerce, news, blogs, message-boards, or organization to narrow the feed to those source kinds. You can also pass search_mode, limit, order_by, and an advanced filters expression to scope results further.
How much does the brand mention search cost?
Each search request costs 5 credits on the advanced tier, regardless of how many mentions return on the page. New accounts get 100 free credits with no credit card required, so you can test keywords and filters before you pay anything.
