Use this quickstart to make your first call to Bing Entity Search API and view the JSON response. This simple Ruby application sends a news search query to the API, and displays the response. The source code for this application is available on GitHub.

Although this application is written in Ruby, the API is a RESTful Web service compatible with most programming languages.

Prerequisites

Ruby 2.4 or later.

Create and initialize the application

In your favorite IDE or code editor, create a news Ruby file and import the following packages:
```
require 'net/https'
require 'cgi'
require 'json'
```

Create variables for your API endpoint, News search URL, your subscription key, and search query.

host = 'https://api.bing.microsoft.com'
path = '/v7.0/entities'

mkt = 'en-US'
query = 'italian restaurants near me'

Format and make an API request

Create the parameters string for your request by appending your market variable to the ?mkt= parameter. Encode your query and append it to the &q= parameter. Combine your API host, path, and the parameters for your request, and cast them as a URI object.
```
params = '?mkt=' + mkt + '&q=' + CGI.escape(query)
uri = URI (host + path + params)
```
Use the variables from the last step to create the request. Add your subscription key to the Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key header.
```
request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri)
request['Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key'] = subscriptionKey
```

Send the request, and print the response.

response = Net::HTTP.start(uri.host, uri.port, :use_ssl => uri.scheme == 'https') do |http|
    http.request (request)
end

puts JSON::pretty_generate (JSON (response.body))

Example JSON response
