Scrape data for hundreds of search terms per Google sheet, fix time ranges to get faster outputs, and choose geolocations and other trending searches from the Google Trends platform using Google Trends Scraper. Store your data as a usable file like XML, CSV, etc. Our Google Trends data collection tool is available in the USA, UAE, UK, Australia, France, Germany, Canada, Singapore, Mexico, Spain, Brazil, and other countries worldwide.
It is a data scraping tool to collect search trends data from the Google Trends platform. Google Trends doesn't have an official API, but you can directly scrape Google Trends data using an unofficial scraper at scale. We have developed it on a robust SDK, allowing you to execute it locally or on our platform.
The Google Trends platform allows you to discover the topics people have been searching for on the internet globally. It also allows you to find new ideas and trends with a public interest level. After studying the Google Trends data at scale, you can decide where to use your resources and make an investment.
Whether you're an SEO expert or digital marketer monitoring Keywords, a journalist researching trending topics, an e-commerce seller looking for ways to dropship products, or a real estate developer checking and tracking the future of property values, Google Trends will help you with reliable data.
Estimating the required resources to scrape Google Trends data is exhausting due to variable use cases. Therefore, the best option to estimate the cost is to perform a trial run of the trending search data scraper with the sample data and restricted output. It will give you the price of every scrape you can multiply with the scrape counts you want it to perform. .
You can check out our stepwise tutorial for Google Trends Scraper and its pricing. If you choose a higher plan for the long term, you will save your money.
Important Note: It will work best to enter more search queries for every scrape in this scraper. As per our experience, if you enter one thousand queries in one scrape, it will do better than if you feed a single keyword.
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| searchTerms | array | It is the search query list to scrape Google Trends data. If spreadsheetId is unavailable, you must use a search term list. |
| spreadsheetId | string | spreadsheetId string It is an optional Google Sheet Id for crawling search query locations. |
| isPublic | boolean | If tested, you can upload the publicly available datasheet without authorization. Please go through the authorization below on the same page to upload private data sheets with false defaults. |
| timeRange | string | Select the time range with the last year as default. |
| category | string | category string Select the search filter category with All categories as default. |
| geo | string | geo string Retrieve geolocation results for specific areas with worldwide default. |
| maxItems | number | It is an optional field for the total product item count you want to scrape. |
| customTimeRange | string | Please input the custom range for a time. If you give it, it has priority instead of a regular timeRange. Check out the custom time range to check the suitable examples and format. |
| extendOutputFunction | string | extendOutputFunction string It is an optional function to take the JQuery handle($) argument and reflect the data to merge it with the default result. Check out the Extend Output Function to learn more. |
| proxyConfiguration | object | It is an optional field to set up proxy servers. |
You can use the drop-down menu to select the time range on our platform. If you give the JSON input, here are the possible values of time ranges.
{ "searchTerms": [ "test term", "another test term" ], "spreadsheetId": //spreadsheetId, "timeRange": "now 4-H", "isPublic": true, "maxItems": 100, "customTimeRange": "2020-03-24 2020-03-29", "extendOutputFunction": "($) => { return { test: 1234, test2: 5678 } }", "proxyConfiguration": { "useRealdataAPIProxy": true } }
The Google Trends data scraper will save its output in a dataset. All items will include search queries; corresponding dates will let each value.
Here is the sample output of an item:
{ "searchTerm": "CNN", "Jan 13, 2019": "92", "Jan 20, 2019": "100", "Jan 27, 2019": "86", "Feb 3, 2019": "82", //... }
The outputAsISODate will display as accurate if you set it to true:
{ "Term / Date": "CNN", "2019-08-11T03:00:00.000Z": "43", "2019-08-18T03:00:00.000Z": "34", "2019-08-25T03:00:00.000Z": "34", // ... }
If your Google spreadsheet is private, you'll need authorization.
The Google Trends data extractor internally executes the actor to import and export Google Sheets. You must conduct the authorization process by separately running this scraper in your account. After its single run, it will store the token in the key-value store, and the Google Trends data extractor will automatically use it. You can use automation full-fledged for the Google Trends Scraper without any authorization parameter setting all the time after running the import-export actor for Google Sheets once.
It would help if you had a separate tokensStore in every Google account to use more Google Sheets from multiple accounts. Further, you must adequately name each store to monitor the token location.
After the scraper run, you can export the resulting spreadsheets with structured format from your dataset.
It is a string with the custom range for a time in the startDate endDate order.
It has a YYYY-MM-DD YYYY-MM-DD format.
Samples:
2020-01-30 2020-03-292019-03-20 2019-03-26All dates support the time only if there is a seven-day time range.
Samples:
2020-03-24T08 2020-03-29T15Update the default result of this API using the extended output function. You can select the required data with the help of an argument JQuery handle $. The function will merge the scraper output with the default value.
The function should return its value in the object format.
You can get the following things with return fields:
You'll see a new field in the following example:
($) => { return { comment: 'This is a comment', } }
Also, get the related links and keyword trends using this example:
($) => { return { trends: $('a[href^="/trends/explore"] .label-text') .map((_, s) => ({ text: s.innerText, link: s.closest('a').href })) .toArray() } }
Lastly, you can connect the Google Trends data collection tool with any web application or cloud service with the help of integrations available on our platform. To integrate the scraper, GitHub, Google Drive, Google Sheets, Slack, Zapier, Make, Airbyte, and other options are available. Use Webhooks to take any action for event occurrence, like getting an alert after the successful execution of the Google Trends Scraper.
Our actor gives you programmatic permission to access the platform. We have organized it around the RESTful HTTP endpoints, allowing you to run, manage, and schedule scrapers on our platform. The actor also allows you to track scraper performances, update and create versions, access datasets, etc.
Use our client PyPl and client NPM packages to access the actor using Python and Node.js, respectively.
If you use our Google Trends data scraper and don't get what you want, you can develop a scraper with custom requirements on our platform. We provide many templates to design the scraper in TypeScript, JavaScript, and Python to begin the process. You can write the scraper script in Crawlee, the open-source library.
Contact our team to design it if you want to avoid working on it.
We have a dedicated team to work on the scraper performance improvement on our platform. Therefore, if you find any issues or want to suggest any feature update for Google Trends Scraper, please visit the issue tab on your console account, and create an issue. API
You should have a Real Data API account to execute the program examples. Replace < YOUR_API_TOKEN> in the program using the token of your actor. Read about the live APIs with Real Data API docs for more explanation.
