# Query with Geographic Location

This documentation explains how to specify a geographic location for your Bing searches using the SERP API. \
Bing uses a combination of `location` and `setLang` parameters to localize search results.

### Parameter for Geographic Location[​](https://serp-api.netnut.io/docs/SERP/API%20Examples/Query%20with%20Location#parameter-for-geographic-location) <a href="#parameter-for-geographic-location" id="parameter-for-geographic-location"></a>

The SERP API provides optional parameters for specifying the desired location and language for your Bing search:

* `location` (Optional): A two-letter country code ([ISO 3166-1 Alpha-2](https://www.iso.org/obp/ui/#search)) to indicate the country context (e.g., `us`, `uk`, `de`, `cn`).
* `setLang` (Optional)**:** A two-letter language code ([ISO 639-1](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639_language_codes)) to specify the interface language (e.g., `en`, `fr`, `zh-cn`).

These parameters influence the localization of search results and the language of the Bing interface used in the query.

### Example

To customize your SERP API request with a specific geographic context, include the `location` and `setLang` parameters in your GET request.

```bash
curl --location 'https://serp-api.netnut.io/search/get-html?siteType=bing&q=Netnut&setLang=en&location=us&rawHtml=1&device=desktop' \
--header 'Authorization: Basic base64(username:password)'
```

**Expected Result:**

* Search country is United States.
* Results are returned in English .
* Bing will simulate a user searching from Bing in the United States.

### API Response Example

The API responds with a structured JSON containing the Bing SERP results localized based on the specified geographic context.
