Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| keywordstring · required | string | required | The search query to fetch rankings for. |
| depthnumber · optional | number | optional | Number of organic SERP results to fetch, and a hard ceiling on the rows returned. Default 10; higher costs more. SERP page blocks (AI Overview, People Also Ask) share the same budget but rank BEHIND the organic results, so they appear only if this number leaves room after them. Raise it by one or two if you want the blocks as well as a full page of results. On a low number over a page carrying about as many blocks as results, neither clearly outnumbers the other, so you get some of each instead. Default: |
| targetstring · optional | string | optional | (Optional) Domain to filter results to, e.g. "example.com". Example: |
| language_namestring · optional | string | optional | Language for results. Defaults to English. One of: Default: |
| location_namestring · optional | string | optional | Country for results. Defaults to United States. One of: Default: |
