What is Flowise?
Open-source drag-and-drop tool for building LLM flows. Visual interface for creating chatbots and AI agents.
Searching Google Scholar with Flowise
This integration lets your Flowise agent search Google Scholar in real time via the Scavio API. The agent gets back structured JSON with paper titles, paper URLs, SERP snippets -- ready for reasoning and decision-making.
Setup
Bash
# No installation - configure in Flowise's drag-and-drop editorCode Example
Here is a complete Flowise agent that searches Google Scholar using Scavio:
Text
// In Flowise, add a Custom Tool node:
// Name: scavio_search
// Description: Query Google Scholar for real-time results
// Method: POST
// URL: https://api.scavio.dev/api/v2/google
// Headers: {"Authorization": "Bearer sk_live_your_key", "Content-Type": "application/json"}
// Body: {"query":"your search query"}
//
// Scavio has no Google Scholar endpoint, so citation counts and author lists are not available. This runs a Google web search - narrow it with site:arxiv.org or filetype:pdf.
Full Working Example
