serpapi.SerpApiSearchException: Missing query q parameter when trying to use Google Lens API #23
Description
I have the following piece of code written for a Spring Boot server
public void requestSerpApiServer() {
Map<String, String> parameter = new HashMap<>();
parameter.put("engine", "google_lens");
parameter.put("url", "https://i.imgur.com/HBrB8p0.png");
parameter.put("api_key", serpApiKey);
GoogleSearch search = new GoogleSearch(parameter);
try {
JsonObject results = search.getJson();
JsonElement searchResults = results.get("knowledge_graph");
System.out.println(searchResults);
} catch (SerpApiSearchException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
This was copied from the example in the serp API playground. I'm facing this issue when I try to run this code
serpapi.SerpApiSearchException: Missing query `q` parameter.

Am I missing something or is this is a bug?
