# DataForSEO

This page provides instructions on how to use the DataForSEO search APIs within LangChain.

## Installation and Setup

- Get a DataForSEO API Access login and password, and set them as environment variables (`DATAFORSEO_LOGIN` and `DATAFORSEO_PASSWORD` respectively). You can find it in your dashboard.

## Wrappers

### Utility

The DataForSEO utility wraps the API. To import this utility, use:

```python
from langchain.utilities.dataforseo_api_search import DataForSeoAPIWrapper
```

For a detailed walkthrough of this wrapper, see [this notebook](/docs/integrations/tools/dataforseo.ipynb).

### Tool

You can also load this wrapper as a Tool to use with an Agent:

```python
from langchain.agents import load_tools
tools = load_tools(["dataforseo-api-search"])
```

## Example usage

```python
dataforseo = DataForSeoAPIWrapper(api_login="your_login", api_password="your_password")
result = dataforseo.run("Bill Gates")
print(result)
```

## Environment Variables

You can store your DataForSEO API Access login and password as environment variables. The wrapper will automatically check for these environment variables if no values are provided:

```python
import os

os.environ["DATAFORSEO_LOGIN"] = "your_login"
os.environ["DATAFORSEO_PASSWORD"] = "your_password"

dataforseo = DataForSeoAPIWrapper()
result = dataforseo.run("weather in Los Angeles")
print(result)
```
