Hi,

I am trying to use TargetingIdeaService (v201809) to get the monthly search volume data for specific keywords.

In keyword planner, you can select a keyword such as "italian restaurant stockholm" and get the monthly search volume for that particular keyword, and a bunch of other suggested keywords.

However, in the TargetingIdeaService API, I can so far only see that I get the list of suggestions, but not for the particular keyword itself.

Is there any setting I can change to get the monthly search volume data for the specific keyword  that I sent to the API?

Best Regards,
Jonas

Hello Jonas,

In general the targeting idea service will get keyword ideas with the production accounts and while using with the test accounts you will receive junk data. You could share the complete request and response log to check further.
