Geo='UK' yields no results

Open jdavalos opened this issue 10 years ago • 1 comments

For some reason, any search querry for the UK such as: x<- gettrend(keyword = 'ebay', geo = 'UK') yields the following output |- Something went wrong! |- Did you login to your gmail account at http://www.google.com/trends? |- or Maybe, your browser default download directory path is different! |- type googletrend::setdownloaddir("YOUR BROWSER DOWNLOAD DIRECTORY PATH") Error in gettrend(keyword = "ebay", geo = "UK") : |- timeout

Is it only me or something related to my regional configuration (I'm in Peru) ? everything else works fine.

Hi,

The geo-code for the UK is 'GB', and not 'UK'.

If you try x <- gettrend(keyword="ebay", geo="GB") it should work.
