Hi, the local websearch is always a bit brittle since you need to parse google results directly. Keeping it up to date is always a challenge so we recommend using a search provider if you can instead.
I can't really commit time to do it myself now but I'd be super happy to review a PR that fixes the local search however!
I tried SERPER_API_KEY instead, but this reports the same error, No results found for this search query. I can see the API calls in the Serper activity log, however. Any hints on how I can debug this?
PS. I first looked at BING_SUBSCRIPTION_KEY, but MS no longer supports new Bing Search deployments.
Could this log entry be relevant?
