Research direction

Start with BingWebSearchv7.java, especially the request construction and line 88 where the response is read. Reproduce the request with the custom query and API key, then verify whether the sample reaches the documented Bing Search API endpoint and determine what change or guidance resolves the FileNotFoundException.

Description

HI,

I am running BingWebSearchv7.java as it is with my custom query and API key value.

I am getting the following error--

java.io.FileNotFoundException: https://api.bing.microsoft.com/bing/v7.0/search?q=site%3Alinkedin.com++%22Owner%22++%22Web+Hosting%22+
at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream0(Unknown Source)
at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(Unknown Source)
at sun.net.www.protocol.https.HttpsURLConnectionImpl.getInputStream(Unknown Source)
at BingWebSearch.SearchWeb(BingWebSearch.java:88)
at BingWebSearch.main(BingWebSearch.java:44)

I have correctly specified the API key and request URL. However, the above error typically occurs for a File Not Found (404 or 410).

Please let me know what is wrong here?

The URL I am searching for is here--

"https://api.bing.microsoft.com/bing/v7.0/search?q=site%3Alinkedin.com++%22Owner%22++%22Web+Hosting%22+"

Yours sincerely,
Arvind.
