# BING_SEARCH_ENDPOINT is the default endpoint for Bing Web Search API.
# Currently There are two web-based Bing Search services available on Azure,
# i.e. Bing Web Search[1] and Bing Custom Search[2]. Compared to Bing Custom Search,
# Both services that provides a wide range of search results, while Bing Custom
# Search requires you to provide an additional custom search instance, `customConfig`.
# Both services are available for BingSearchAPIWrapper.
# History of Azure Bing Search API:
# Before shown in Azure Marketplace as a separate service, Bing Search APIs were
# part of Azure Cognitive Services, the endpoint of which is unique, and the user
# must specify the endpoint when making a request. After transitioning to Azure
# Marketplace, the endpoint is standardized and the user does not need to specify
# the endpoint[3].
