Google Trends Extraction Tool for Google Trends Extended for Health data

Researchers who apply for an API key to the Google Extended Trends for Health API gain access to higher quality Google Trends data than from the Google Trends website but must access the data using Python code customized for each extraction. Researchers can also only access one time-series sample per individual query per day. The Google Trends Extraction Tool provides full access to all the API methods in an Excel-based GUI, requiring only a unique API key from Google. It employs a novel multiple sampling method to circumvent the API limitation, records an audit trail, and automatically plots results.
