Getting stats from Keyword planner API for specific date range

[vib...@nvidia.com]

Hello I'm using the targeting keyword Idea api to extract the search volume of past searches of a speciifc word monthly. In the UI I can set the date range and extract the month by month stats for the specific country for past three years. In API I can get the annual stats. However when I want to get the stats for three years month by month I'm nt able to correctly use the date range feature in the python API of the Google ADWORDS. I get the below error 

TypeNotFound: Type not found: 'DateRange':

This is my script. Please help

from googleads import adwords

      'TargetingIdeaService', version='v201702')

Hi Vibhor,

In the TargetingIdeaService of the AdWords API, only the TARGETED_MONTHLY_SEARCHES attribute type is supported for the Date Range, which ranges to only 12 months as mentioned in this section of the Targeting Ideas guide. However, to further investigate your concern, could you provide the complete screenshot (all filters included) of the Keyword Planner in the AdWords UI wherein you were able to specify a date range for the past three years? Please reply using Reply privately to author.

Thanks and regards,

Peter

Hi Jigar,

As discussed in this guide, you can use the TARGETING_MONTHLY_SEARCHES attribute to retrieve monthly volumes for a period of 12 months. Also, seeing that you have responded to quite an old thread to discuss your concern, I would recommend that you create a new one if you have additional questions, for better tracking.

Best regards,

Peter
