Google Trends - How to use

Hello guys, let me start by saying that I am new to Apify. That said, I am trying to scrape Google Trends, but the result I'm getting back is not the expected data. I am getting dataset that looks like this:
[{
"Term / Date": "Socks",
"May 16 at 9:44 PM": "95",
"May 16 at 9:52 PM": "88",
"May 16 at 10:00 PM": "90",
"May 16 at 10:08 PM": "100"
]}
[{
"Term / Date": "Socks",
"May 16 at 9:44 PM": "95",
"May 16 at 9:52 PM": "88",
"May 16 at 10:00 PM": "90",
"May 16 at 10:08 PM": "100"
]}
I was hoping to get something with more detail based on my queries, even the other fields such as category and geo aren't included in the result - Is there something I needed to do?

Hey @ReactingMe ! Just a heads-up that this is a community actor, it would be the best to repost the question in the Issues tab so that the dev can assist directly.

Could you actually please send you userId (could be in DM). My colleague wants to have a look at it. Thanks! But actually - just got a response from my colleague - the data you get is precisely what Google Trends will display. It is pretty much a chart with a value per time range... About category and geo - the guys will have a look.
