You.com

You.com web search behind the gateway
View as Markdown

Fronts the Search API of You.com; the gateway supplies You.com’s /v1 base itself:

GET /youcom/search   → https://ydc-index.io/v1/search

Only GET is mounted. Controls such as query, count, and livecrawl ride in the query string, which is relayed to You.com without modification.

The Contents and Research APIs on You.com’s side are intentionally left unexposed; the Search API is the only part proxied.

Credential handling

  • X-API-Key is injected; a client-supplied value is overwritten.
  • Authorization is dropped before the request goes upstream — your gateway token is meaningless to You.com.

Example

$curl "$GATEWAY/youcom/search?query=cloudflare+workers" \
>  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"

Responses arrive as You.com’s JSON, untouched. Field-level request and response detail lives in You.com’s documentation; the gateway modifies neither.
