i have a problem using the gtrendsR package. When creating an example Shiny APP I always get the error:
Error in gtrends: unused arguments (start_date = start_date(), end_date = end_date())
The start and end date no longer exist in the current package. Currently, start and end times only need to be specified as follows:
Time span between two dates (ex.: "2010-01-01 2010-04-03")
How can I change the function?
Many thanks for your help.
The complete code looks like this:
