Setting Naver Organic SERP Tasks

‌‌
Naver SERP API provides top 100 search engine results. Naver search results do not vary by location and language, and the search parameters for this search engine do not contain language and location variables. However, you can specify a keyword in any language, and the search engine results may vary depending on the language you used for specifying the search query.

There are two different priorities that stand for the relative speed of task execution: normal and high.

Instead of ‘login’ and ‘password’ use your credentials from https://app.dataforseo.com/api-dashboard

<?php
// You can download this file from here https://cdn.dataforseo.com/v3/examples/php/php_RestClient.zip
require('RestClient.php');
$api_url = 'https://api.dataforseo.com/';
try {
   // Instead of 'login' and 'password' use your credentials from https://app.dataforseo.com/api-dashboard
   $client = new RestClient($api_url, null, 'login', 'password');
} catch (RestClientException $e) {
   echo "\n";
   print "HTTP code: {$e->getHttpCode()}\n";
   print "Error code: {$e->getCode()}\n";
   print "Message: {$e->getMessage()}\n";
   print  $e->getTraceAsString();
   echo "\n";
   exit();
}
$post_array = array();
// example #1 - a simple way to set a task
// this way requires you to specify a keyword.
$post_array[] = array(
   "keyword" => mb_convert_encoding("albert einstein", "UTF-8")
);
// example #2 - a way to set a task with additional parameters
// high priority allows us to complete a task faster, but you will be charged more credits.
// after a task is completed, we will send a GET request to the address you specify. Instead of $id and $tag, you will receive actual values that are relevant to this task.
$post_array[] = array(
   "keyword" => mb_convert_encoding("albert einstein", "UTF-8"),
   "priority" => 2,
   "tag" => "some_string_123",
   "pingback_url" => 'https://your-server.com/pingscript?id=$id&tag=$tag'
);
// this example has a 2 elements, but in the case of large number of tasks - send up to 100 elements per POST request
if (count($post_array) > 0) {
   try {
      // POST /v3/serp/naver/organic/task_post
      // in addition to 'naver' and 'organic' you can also set other search engine and type parameters
      // the full list of possible parameters is available in documentation
      $result = $client->post('/v3/serp/naver/organic/task_post', $post_array);
      print_r($result);
      // do something with post result
   } catch (RestClientException $e) {
      echo "\n";
      print "HTTP code: {$e->getHttpCode()}\n";
      print "Error code: {$e->getCode()}\n";
      print "Message: {$e->getMessage()}\n";
      print  $e->getTraceAsString();
      echo "\n";
   }
}
$client = null;
?>

The above command returns JSON structured like this:

}

All POST data should be sent in the JSON format (UTF-8 encoding). The task setting is done using the POST method. When setting a task, you should send all task parameters in the task array of the generic POST array. You can send up to 2000 API calls per minute, with each POST call containing no more than 100 tasks. If your POST call contains over 100 tasks, the tasks over this limit will return the 40006 error. Visit DataForSEO Help Center to get practical tips for request handling depending on your SERP API payload volume.

You can retrieve the results of completed tasks using the unique task identifier id. Alternatively, we can send them to you as soon as they are ready if you specify the postback_url or pingback_url when setting a task. Note that if your server doesn’t respond within 10 seconds, the connection will be aborted by timeout, and the task will be transferred to the ‘Tasks Ready’ list. The error code and message depend on your server’s configuration. See Help Center to learn more about using pingbacks and postbacks with DataForSEO APIs.

Below you will find a detailed description of the fields you can use for setting a task.

Description of the fields for setting a task:

Field name Type Description
keyword string keyword
required field
you can specify up to 700 symbols in the keyword field
all %## will be decoded (plus symbol ‘+’ will be decoded to a space character)
if you need to use the “%” symbol for your keyword, please specify it as “%25”;
if you need to use the “+” symbol for your keyword, please specify it as “%2B”
url string direct URL of the search query
optional field
you can specify a direct URL and we will sort it out to the necessary fields
in most cases, we wouldn’t recommend using this method;
example:
https://search.naver.com/search.naver?where=nexearch&sm=top_hty&fbm=1&ie=utf8&query=iphone
priority integer task priority
optional field
can take the following values:
1 – normal execution priority (set by default)
2 – high execution priority

depth integer parsing depth
optional field
number of results in SERP
default value: 100
max value: 700
Note: your account will be billed per each SERP containing up to 100 results;
thus, setting a depth above 100 may result in additional charges if the search engine returns more than 100 results;
if the specified depth is higher than the number of results in the response, the difference will be refunded automatically to your account balance
max_crawl_pages integer page crawl limit
optional field
number of search results pages to crawl
max value: 100
Note: the max_crawl_pages and depth parameters complement each other;

device string device type
optional field
can take the values:desktop, mobile
default value: desktop
os string device operating system
optional field
if you specify desktop in the device field, choose from the following values: windows, macos
default value: windows
if you specify mobile in the device field, choose from the following values: android, ios

se_domain string search engine domain
optional field
we choose the relevant search engine domain automatically
however, you can set a custom search engine domain in this field
example:
search.naver.com
search_param string additional parameters of the search query
optional field
get the list of available parameters and additional details here
tag string user-defined task identifier
optional field
the character limit is 255
you can use this parameter to identify the task and match it with the result
you will find the specified tag value in the data object of the response
postback_url string return URL for sending task results
optional field
once the task is completed, we will send a POST request with its results compressed in the gzip format to the postback_url you specified
you can use the ‘$id’ string as a $id variable and ‘$tag’ as urlencoded $tag variable. We will set the necessary values before sending the request.
example:
http://your-server.com/postbackscript?id=$id
http://your-server.com/postbackscript?id=$id&tag=$tag
Note: special symbols in postback_url will be urlencoded;
i.a., the # symbol will be encoded into %23
postback_data string postback_url datatype
required field if you specify postback_url
corresponds to the function you used for setting a task
possible values:
regular, advanced, html
pingback_url string notification URL of a completed task
optional field
when a task is completed we will notify you by GET request sent to the URL you have specified
you can use the ‘$id’ string as a $id variable and ‘$tag’ as urlencoded $tag variable. We will set the necessary values before sending the request.

http://your-server.com/pingscript?id=$id
http://your-server.com/pingscript?id=$id&tag=$tag
Note: special symbols in pingback_url will be urlencoded;
i.a., the # symbol will be encoded into %23
