The service is now fully operational again after deploying a final solution. The issue was caused by recent changes on Google's end, which impacted both our default and backup scraping methods. Similar disruptions were observed across other search API providers, highlighting the broader scope of the issue. We sincerely apologize for the disruption and any impact it may have had on your operations. We are continuing to monitor the situation. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
