nextcord.errors.ApplicationInvokeError: Command raised an exception: UnknownApiNameOrVersion: name: customsearch version: v1

Is this an issue on Google's end? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time.

Had the same issue in repl.it for a discord bot. Command runs fine in Vscode, but not there. Code:

@bot.command()
async def img(ctx, *, args):
    gis = GoogleImagesSearch(GOOGLE_API_KEY, CXID)

    _search_params = {
    'q': args,
    'num': 3
}
    gis.search(search_params=_search_params)

    image_list = []

    async with ctx.typing():
        for image in gis.results():
            image_list.append(image.url)
        print(image_list)

    await ctx.send(image_list[random.randint(0, len(image_list)-1)])

Error:

Ignoring exception in command img:

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Looks like sometimes Google API has problems with API discovery doc: https://github.com/googleworkspace/python-samples/issues/194 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66700249/google-gmail-api-works-fine-as-py-but-throws-googleapiclient-errors-unknownap

This could be due to the google's dependency libs or something else. Try to play with cache_discovery argument when conducting the search:

gis = GoogleImagesSearch(GOOGLE_API_KEY, CXID)
_search_params = {...}
gis.search(search_params=_search_params, cache_discovery=True)
# the default is False
