// FAQ

Google Trends API — FAQ

Is there an official Google Trends API?

Google’s official Trends API is in closed alpha — quota-limited, requires Google Cloud auth, and has no recent or realtime data. This API is a working alternative you can use today through the marketplaces below.

How do I get Google Trends data via API?

Pick a marketplace, grab an API key, and call an endpoint with a keyword, geo and time range. You get clean JSON back — no scraping, proxies or rate-limit handling on your side.

Does it include realtime Google Trends data?

Yes. Realtime windows (now 1-H … now 7-d) are refreshed about every 15 minutes — the gap the official alpha API does not cover.

Do I pay for empty results?

No. A keyword with no data comes back flagged as no_data and is never billed. You pay only for delivered, non-empty results.

Can I compare keywords on the same scale?

Yes — the compare endpoint puts 2–5 keywords on one shared 0–100 scale (cross-term scaling), so the numbers are directly comparable in a single request.

What Google Trends data can I pull?

Interest over time, cross-term compare, top & rising related queries and topics, interest by region (country / region / city / DMA), and realtime trending searches.
