Hi Aryeh. Thank you for your reply. But it is still not clear how to get a monthly search volume for an array of keywords. For example, if I have an array of keywords *@keywords = ['cars for sale', 'used cars for sale', 'new cars for sale' ] *and I need to get monthly a search volume for the past 3 months for each of these keywords.
According to documentation that you provided the first step that I need to do is to create a keywords plan object: *client = Google::Ads::GoogleAds::GoogleAdsClient.new keyword_plan = create_keyword_plan(client, customer_id)* Could you please explain and provide code samples of the following: 1) How to pass an array of keywords *@keywords *into the *keyword_plan * object in order to receive monthly search volume for these keywords in the array? 2) Ho to specify a needed past period of time, for example for the past 3 months? How to tell API that we need monthly search volume for the past 3 months? Thanks.
