Quota defeating / Authentication about google-trends-api

[Dayjo]

I'm off to Vietnam for a couple of weeks on Friday so won't get a chance to implement it properly, however I may get a chance when I'm back 👍

[Dayjo]

@pat310 Going to probably get a chance to look into this over the next couple of weeks so will keep you posted! Need to come up with a proof of concept for a reliable way of utilising this.

Hey man!

what kindda quota limits you are getting now, after cookies? better than 10/ min or 200/ hr ?

[Dayjo]

Far lower than normal without the cookies, literally the first request I did said that I reached my limit. Apparently Google gives reduced quotas if there are no cookies as it recognises that it's a bot.

It just seemed very inconsistent. However when sending the cookies along with the request I had consistent results, (though i've yet to benchmark how many exactly)

@Dayjo sounds like it's worth a shot - good idea!

[KelvinCampelo]

@Dayjo can you explain to me, what the cookies I need to send... I would be grateful!

[Dayjo]

Hello @KelvinCampelo

As in the code in my first post, the cookies I was sending were;

GMAIL_RTT=223;
HSID=AvCAPi1_gcLNPHp04;
NID=90\=ljp9bPedFIvbHjyJu_ASSrzAyOjG8bql-141rlIlMUAFUl2whg2O7g6u8Fa0_I5Nf3WteTzfPF4UEp1K5BZw_FLqRXrpdICasdbkRT24zGGkdJHloBLmNZ55hJb2EgUtfsglxlevfPTIeM5bSZ0SmQejORetaXY_yWUvLxQ5NgsxFjMw8eBuqFYruG3aOMhK4jCrc2p8evYPwLMU5t5z1YqdjvBsJw0pWHTHpM7WWWqHhEVvPgZh8SwvAdCTMidd4Q9TTa3bX77lA8hG_kvcaXGApb1ppelSHCE607viCgNYy4pBHAMYypWW9cgX_WxwOmhzvbSjNn21gJZw6TUkadGhEt8vWYjbJUW7q;

SSID=ASaVarA9Iip_lMFg-w;

Which I'd extracted from the browser when I'd logged into google. I don't know what they do, I literlaly just copied them all :)

[Dayjo]

Note to self / anyone else; I'm going to be attempting to max out the quota. I would like to go for around 170k requests a month. Hopefully that's within their limit!

@pat310 @dreyco676 no idea if either of you have tried or had anyone else try anything near this number?

[pat310]

@Dayjo I'm not sure, but I would be curious to see what the number is. I'll let you know as soon as it's updated

[pat310]

@Dayjo Closing this for now. Are you going to run a test to see what the limit is?
