POST
Reference example
Queues a Bing search-volume task, returning a task id. Wrapped in DataForSEO’s envelope: data in tasks[0].result, outcome in tasks[0].status_code - a rejected request still returns HTTP 200. Retrieve with get_dataforseo_keywords_bing_search_volume_fetch.

Example

Cost and request rules

Published reference values are not an account-specific quote or a settled charge. For endpoints supporting X-AISA-Cost-Mode: quote, obtain a free quote for your exact request before execution; reconcile the settled cost with response metadata and Usage Logs. USD amounts use 1,000,000 integer micro-USD per dollar.
  • Default request reference estimate (USD): 0.06
  • Cost contract: response_usd
  • Published reference multiplier: 1.0
  • Settlement evidence source: response_body
