I tried to get the volume of the keyword "italian men", location: USA. In Google Keyword Planner I see the following data: 10 000 - 100 000. Screenshot: http://joxi.ru/eAOXYPlipNzZJr?d=1
But via API I get 0 search volume. Request attached. Why is that so?

Hi,

Could you try using the new Google Ads API for making this request, and see if the results vary? You can find the relevant details here: https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/keyword-planning/overview.

Cheers

I am also experiencing this issue, and I can confirm that the same term "italian men" does not produce any data in the new Google Ads API too. Same goes for "apple" and "iphone" (and many others).

Folks,

Can you please provide a log so I can investigate further?

Folks,

Could you also take a look at https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/keyword-planning/overview to see if that gives you the necessary data? It is a closer API to the Keyword Planner UI than TargetingIdeaService.

Now the data coincide, thanks for answers.
