$productSearchClient = new ProductSearchClient();

// Prepare the request message.
$request = (new GetProductRequest())
    ->setName($formattedName);

// Call the API and handle any network failures.
try {
    /** @var Product $response */
    $response = $productSearchClient->getProduct($request);
    printf('Response data: %s' . PHP_EOL, $response->serializeToJsonString());
