Available methods and priorities are described below.<\/p>\n<p>DataForSEO supports only the Standard for delivering SERP results. This method requires making separate <a href=\"\/v3\/serp\/google\/search_by_image\/task_post\/\">POST<\/a> and <a href=\"\/v3\/serp\/google\/search_by_image\/task_get\/advanced\/\">GET<\/a> requests to the corresponding endpoints. Using this method, you can retrieve the results after our system collects them.<\/p>\n<p>\u200cAlternatively, you can specify <code>pingback_url<\/code> or <code>postback_url<\/code> when setting a task, and we will notify you on completion of tasks or send the results to you respectively. Note that if you use the <code>postback_url<\/code> field, you should also indicate the function that will be applied for data retrieval: <code>advanced<\/code>, <code>html<\/code>. <\/p>\n<p>If you use the Standard method without specifying <code>pingback_url<\/code> or <code>postback_url<\/code>, you can receive the list of id for all completed tasks using the <strong>&#8216;Tasks Ready&#8217;<\/strong> endpoint. It is designed to provide you with the list of completed tasks, which haven&#8217;t been collected yet. Then, you can retrieve the results using the <strong>\u2018Task GET\u2019<\/strong> endpoint.<\/p>\n<p>Learn more about task completion and obtaining a list of completed tasks in <a href=\"https:\/\/dataforseo.com\/help-center\/completed-tasks\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">this help center article.<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>You can send up to 2000 POST and GET API calls per minute in total, with each POST call containing no more than 100 tasks. Contact us if you would like to raise the limit. &nbsp;\u200c<\/p>\n<h3>Priorities and cost<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe Standard method has two different priorities that stand for the relative speed of task execution and have different prices:<\/p>\n<p>1. Normal priority;<br \/>\n2.
