This section documents the People Also Ask data returned by the Google Search endpoint. People Also Ask items are part of the Google response, so no separate API call is needed.

​
Example request

People Also Ask items are returned by default. To hydrate AIOVERVIEW-type items with markdown and sources, set include.paaAioverview to true. 
{
  "query": "best laptops for programming",
  "country": "US",
  "include": {
    "paaAioverview": true
  }
}
This produces a response containing the peopleAlsoAsk array documented below.

​
