New Location for the Google Crawlers' IP Range Files
Tuesday, March 31, 2026
Just a short note this time!
Currently, you find the JSON files listing Google's IP ranges under the
/search/apis/ipranges/ directory on
developers.google.com. Since these ranges apply to more than
just Google Search crawlers, we're moving them to a more general location:
developers.google.com/crawling/ipranges/.
We've already
updated our documentation
to point to this new location. For the time being, the files will continue
to be available at the old /search/ path as well to give
everyone time to update their systems. However, we encourage you to switch to
the new /crawling/ipranges/ path as soon as possible. We will
eventually phase out the old locations and redirect them to the new ones
within 6 months.
