Getting undefined search volume for a well known keyword

[Matic Jurglic]

We're using Adwords API to fetch keywords' search volume (global and US) and we've been observing some oddity in the data. 

For example, for a keyword electro we are getting null data from TargetingIdeaService. This is obviously pretty odd since it's such a widespread term. 

We have checked the Keyword Planner in Google Ads and the data is not available there either.

Looking for some explanation on why this is happening - thanks!

Hello Matic,

Since the keywords ideas are not available via Keyword Planner the TargetingIdeaService also not resulting any keywords. I recommend you to post your concern on the Advertisers community forum, the product owners there are better equipped to answer this.
