This endpoint will provide you with historical search volume data for up to 1000 keywords in one request. You can get search volume for keywords in monthly, weekly, or daily format and specify the device type.
If your system requires delivering instant results, the Live method is the best solution for you. Unlike the Standard method, this method doesn’t require making separate POST and GET requests to the corresponding endpoints.
If you don’t need to receive data in real-time, you can use the Standard method of data retrieval. This method requires making separate POST and GET requests, but it’s more affordable. Using this method you can retrieve the results after our system collects them.
