Parameters

Answers arrive in `suggestions`, each with `value`, `relevance` and `type`. SCOPE WARNING for cross-provider comparison: these are Google's live autocomplete suggestions and they carry NO search volume, CPC or difficulty. Every other provider implementing google.keywords.ideas returns metric-bearing keyword ideas from a research index. SerpApi is the right choice for discovering real user phrasings cheaply, and the wrong one when the next step needs volume — pair it with a keyword-metrics provider.
