you can do it via the terminal using the following command:

You can do either solution:

sudo mv chromedriver /usr/local/bin/

b.- Update the chrome driver path on the Python script.

On line 35, update executable_path with your Chrome driver path

Usage

To run the script, we go to the terminal and ensure we are in the correct folder. We type:

python3 paa.py

Once you run the script it will ask you to provide 3 inputs that are necessary.

1. Add Query: Query that you want to get the answers from.

E.g

netflix stock

2. How many questions do you want to click?: The more clicks you add the more question you get. Usually, 1 click adds 2 or 3 questions and by default, Google provides 4 questions. So if we add 5 as clicks, then we would get around 15 questions.

3. Please select your language: I added only 2 languages, English (en) and Spanish (es). Make sure that the language is in lowercase.

Result

Once you run the script, it will output a df with all the questions that found for the query you requested. The output should look like this:
