Hi! I just started replacing the v13 reports with v2010 and ran into some problems (at least from my point of view ;-).
A few words on what we are using the reports for, so you can understand what the trouble is: Besides updating performance data, we use the v13 ad performance reports for synchronization of structure elements with activity (impressions > 0). This way we can do the full synchronisation with the (much larger) structure reports on a less frequent basis, saving resources. Structure reports can be replaced with zeroImpression reports in v2010, as suggested in http://groups.google.com/group/adwords-api/browse_thread/thread/4b52811c2162d097/49cdb6241ebe16b4. But there are some more issues with the reports. For synchronisation purpose there are some attribute columns missing in the ad and keyword performance reports, compared to the old reports. One is the campaignId, what would be really nice, but was already requested in http://groups.google.com/group/adwords-api/browse_thread/thread/5ab1a7687d9a6001. The other ones are columns like campStatus, agStatus, maxCpc, maxCpm, maxContentCpc and more. We need them to keep the data in sync. Moreover the new ad performance report provides less granularity than the old one, which actually contains creatives *and* keywords/ placements. Our reporting is based on the fine granularity of v13, so we would be more than happy if there would be a comparable replacement. Are there any plans to add attribute columns and to expand the new ad report(s) to this granularity or add an additional keyword/placement- creative report?
