Hi Jignesh, I think this defeats the purpose of either.
eZFind and Google Search API are two entirely different search methods and I doubt they can be mixed unless you hack things apart in Google's JS library.
What exactly are you trying to accomplish?
Thanks!

I need google search and ezfind search where on search page i provide the option of selecting the google and ezfind
if Google options is selected then it will do the google search and when the ezfind option select it will do ezfind search
if u know any thing about google search api then let me know

Ahh ok, this is a much different approach than I first thought.
-Have a link to /content/search and make sure the template is running ezfind search methodolody
-Have a link to the Google search page. These link should provide lots of info regarding integrating Google search into your site:
https://developers.google.com/custom-search/v1/overview - The overview
https://developers.google.com/custom-search/v1/getting_started - The details. Check out the outline. There are a bunch of small steps to get going.
Also make sure that Google is not indexing your actual ezfind search (content/search).
Hope this helps!
