## Updates from SerpApi
### 2026-03-30 18:24 UTC: identified
Response times are currently longer for the Google Search API due to a temporary fix we have in place for a high priority issue. We apologize for the inconvenience, and are actively working toward a stable solution without the added latency. Thanks for your patience in the meantime.

### 2026-03-30 23:00 UTC: resolved
Thank you for your patience - Google Search API response times should now have returned to what's expected.

From the builder: does your app depend on SerpApi? [Sazabi](https://www.sazabi.com/?utm_source=down-guide&utm_medium=markdown&utm_content=serpapi) detects problems in your own logs without hand-written monitors, and you can ask it in plain language which errors mention SerpApi.
