Agent Search is a Google Cloud service for building search engines over websites, structured data and unstructured data, and for grounding generative AI apps in that data. It was previously named Vertex AI Search. A search app is set up in the Google Cloud console, where a site URL is added as a data source, and results are served through the API or through a search widget added to a web page as an HTML component.
Access is controlled with predefined Google Cloud IAM roles, and the data can be confined to the US or EU multi-region. The migration guide describes moving from the Custom Search Site Restricted JSON API of Programmable Search Engine.
