Data by Canadian cities
Opened this issue · 3 comments
I have been trying to get searches by Canadian cities using the CMA (Census Metropolitan Area) code.
I have also been trying to get results by writing the city's name, but it doesn't work. Here is my code:
res <- gtrends(c("EV"), geo = c("CA-AB-825"), time = "2018-01-01 2024-05-05" )
I keep getting the same if I use "CA-AB-Calgary
Error in get_widget(comparison_item, category, gprop, hl, cookie_url, : widget$status_code == 200 is not TRUE
If I look at the results in Google Trends, I see 23 cities displaying results that don't follow a CMA geography. And I can't find a DMA for Canada.
Is there a way to get results from Canadian cities?
If you download the data directly from the website, do you have the data you are looking for?
No, I only get trends for the province (Alberta). And I do get the information that $interst_by_city captures.
Will this mean I can retrieve no more detailed information (as in the US)?
I am afraid, if the official tool is not providing such data, we can not either :)
