# Sponsored Banners on search pages

> Learn how to use the auctions API to create auctions for search results

To serve targeted banner ads on your search pages based on user queries, simply include the search query and slot ID in your auction request.

Here's an example showcasing a single banner slot on a search results page for mobile devices:

```json theme={null}
{
  "auctions": [
    {
      "type": "banners",
      "slots": 1,
      "slotId": "search_banner_top",
      "device": "mobile",
      "searchQuery": "blue running shoes"
    }
  ]
}
```

The sample response below provides all the necessary information to serve the banner ad:

```json theme={null}
{
  "results": [
    {
      "winners": [
        {
          "rank": 1,
          "winnerType": "product",
          "winnerId": "p_PJbnN",
          "resolvedBidId": "WyJlX1BKYm5OIiwiMTJhNTU4MjgtOGVhZC00Mjk5LTgzMjctY2ViYjAwMmEwZmE4IiwiYmFubmVyQWRzIiwiZGVmYXVsdCIsIiJd",
          "asset": [
            {
              "url": "https://topsort.cdnprovider.com/lhs-banner-image-for-p_PJbnN-1x.png"
            }
          ]
        }
      ],
      "error": false
    }
  ]
}
```

<Note>
  winnerType can be "product", "brand", "vendor", or "url" based on the target
  of the winning banner ads campaign.
