What is Semantic Kernel?
Microsoft's SDK for integrating LLMs into applications. Supports plugins, planners, and memory for building AI agents.
Searching Google Ads Transparency with Semantic Kernel
This integration lets your Semantic Kernel agent search Google Ads Transparency in real time via the Scavio API. The agent gets back structured JSON with ad headline, ad URL, advertiser, ad type — ready for reasoning and decision-making.
Setup
Bash
pip install semantic-kernel requestsCode Example
Here is a complete Semantic Kernel agent that searches Google Ads Transparency using Scavio:
Text
import semantic_kernel as sk
from semantic_kernel.functions import kernel_function
import requests
import json
class ScavioPlugin:
@kernel_function(description="Search Google Ads Transparency using Scavio")
def search(self, query: str) -> str:
response = requests.post(
"https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/search",
headers={"x-api-key": "your_scavio_api_key", "Content-Type": "application/json"},
json={"query": query},
)
return json.dumps(response.json())
kernel = sk.Kernel()
kernel.add_plugin(ScavioPlugin(), "scavio")Full Working Example
A production-ready example with error handling:
Text
import semantic_kernel as sk
from semantic_kernel.functions import kernel_function
import requests
import json
class ScavioPlugin:
@kernel_function(description="Search Google Ads Transparency using Scavio")
def search(self, query: str) -> str:
response = requests.post(
"https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/search",
headers={"x-api-key": "your_scavio_api_key", "Content-Type": "application/json"},
json={"query": query},
)
return json.dumps(response.json())
kernel = sk.Kernel()
kernel.add_plugin(ScavioPlugin(), "scavio")
# Use the plugin
result = await kernel.invoke("scavio", "search", query="site:adstransparency.google.com notion")
print(result)Pricing
Scavio offers a free tier with 500 credits/month (1 credit per search). No credit card required. This is enough to build and test your Semantic Kernel integration. Paid plans start at $30/month for higher volumes.
