## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

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 examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

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`).

# README

## Google Trends Scraper (Reliable)

Get **Google Trends** data for any keywords and country: interest over time, interest by region, top and rising related queries, and related topics. Built to survive Google's rate limits (HTTP 429), so your runs finish.

### What you get (one row per keyword)

| Field | Example |
|---|---|
| keyword / geo / timeframe | air fryer / US / today 12-m |
| averageInterest | 66.2 |
| interestOverTime | \[{date: 2026-10-18, value: 64}, ...] |
| interestByRegion | \[{region: Florida, code: US-FL, value: 33}, ...] |
| relatedQueriesTop / Rising | \[{query: ninja air fryer, value: 100}, ...] |
| relatedTopicsTop / Rising | \[{title: Ninja, type: Brand, value: ...}, ...] |

### Options

- Any country or region (US, GB, IN, US-CA) or worldwide.
- Timeframes from the past hour to 2004-present.
- Web, Image, News, Shopping or YouTube search.
- **Compare** up to 5 keywords on the same scale.

### Use cases

- Find rising product ideas and seasonal demand.
- SEO and content planning from rising related queries.
- Track brand or competitor interest over time and by region.

### Pricing

Pay per keyword: **$10 per 1,000 keywords** (each keyword includes the full time series, regions and related data).

### Reliability

Fresh browser-grade sessions, rotating residential proxy and automatic retries with backoff. If one keyword fails after all retries, the rest of your run still completes.

### Notes

Values are Google's relative interest scores (0-100), exactly as Google Trends shows them.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "keywords": [
        "air fryer",
        "bitcoin"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("resolver/google-trends-scraper-reliable").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();

        "bitcoin",
    ] }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("resolver/google-trends-scraper-reliable").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "keywords": [
    "air fryer",
    "bitcoin"
  ]
}' |
apify call resolver/google-trends-scraper-reliable --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,resolver/google-trends-scraper-reliable"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
