<?php
      
# set up the request parameters
$queryString = http_build_query([
  'api_key' => 'demo',
  'q' => 'pizza',
  'search_type' => 'trends',
  'data_type' => 'INTEREST_OVER_TIME'
]);

# make the http GET request
$ch = curl_init(sprintf('%s?%s', 'https://api.serpwow.com/live/search', $queryString));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 180);

$api_result = curl_exec($ch);
