# Google Trends interest by country (pytrends 429 fix)

**Use case:** 

Compares five programming languages (Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Rust, Go) worldwide over 12 months and returns interest over time and interest by country as JSON. The same data pytrends returns from interest_over_time() and interest_by_region(), with a fix for pytrends' '429 Too Many Requests': requests are paced and retried after a pause, and failed keywords are free.

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Google Trends Scraper API & Trending Now](https://apify.com/egra_van/google-trends-reliable.md) with a specific input configuration.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/egra_van/google-trends-reliable.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
