Steps to reproduce 🕹

Each time when Auto-GPT try to google something, it return the same message like this. How to solve it? T^T

SYSTEM: Command google returned: Error: <HttpError 400 when requesting https://customsearch.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?q=top+5+social+media+platforms+2023%3B+5+emerging+social+media+platforms+2023&cx=autogpt-383613&num=8&key=AIzaSyDOf6f0U-erJubJjHFA1-KmmT97T720Z8Y&alt=json returned "Request contains an invalid argument.".

I have the same error, but only when I switch to 'stable' branch if I use 'master' it return the list of result but in master I have error ref: #1407

[LeiyanGithub]

have you solved this problem? I have checked my key and id. Is there special url to check or some tutorials?

[thewasta]

In my case... Im working in "stable" branch and fixed it by editing autogpt/commands/google_search.py, you must to compare it with master branch, add the method and line which are diff.

# stable branch

def google_search(query):
 ...
  return json.dumps(search_results, ensure_ascii=False, indent=4)

But master has the method safe_google_results(results)

So you have to add this method and change the return of method. Hope you fix it!

For me, what worked was creating a custom search engine from https://programmablesearchengine.google.com/controlpanel/all and making it "Search the entire web". I added the ID of the custom search engine to .env. It started working
