Hello there!
I've built a php tool to retrieve search volume data for many keywords. I used the TargettingIdeaService of the Google Ads API with RequestType :: STATS and IdeaType :: KEYWORD
My problem - Example: Adwords Keyword Planner: Insektenschutzmittel  (will be automatically changed) Output: Insektenschutz | Searchvolume: 18,100 API request: Insektenschutzmittel Answer: Insektenschutzmittel | Search volume: 18.100 (search volume of Insektenschutz) -> The tool returns the values ​​of the corrected keyword with the text of the requested keyword, which makes the data incorrect. In this case the API is completely useless for me, as is the Adwords Keyword Planner that adjusts every word and only max. 10 keywords allowed at once. How do I get the data from the API exactly as I requested it, even if there is no data for the requested keyword?

Hello,

Could you please confirm whether you are using the production account to fetch this data? Also, could you please share the screenshot of the UI where the changed keyword is shown in the result? When I try on the production account the keyword did not changed for me. Please use reply privately to the author option while sharing the information requested.

Hello there,

I am using a production account to make the calls. 

The keyword is only chaning in the adwords keyword-planner, not in my api-tool. 
The Values are same but the keyword is different. 

Is the api returning the requested keyword with the corrected data?

Hi Max,

So I can better investigate the issue, could you provide the complete SOAP request and response logs of your TargetingIdeaService request and also the complete screenshot of the keyword planner?
