Setting Google Dataset Search Tasks
Queues datasets matching a query in Google Dataset Search on Google, returning a task id in tasks[0].id. The charge lands here; fetching is free, including re-fetching. Wrapped in DataForSEO’s envelope: data in tasks[0].result, outcome in tasks[0].status_code - a rejected request still returns HTTP 200. The live twin answers immediately and is simpler for a single query; queue when the batch would outlast a tool call.
