Hi Jeremy, Yes, it is possible to generate reports of campaigns, adgroups, ads, etc. You would need to run multiple reports though. See http://code.google.com/apis/adwords/docs/appendix/reports.html for report types and relevant fields.
Yes, you can request various cost metrics by requesting relevant fields in your report. See the link above. Reports are free, so it won't cost you anything to generate daily reports. I recommend you start with the PHP client library available at http://code.google.com/p/google-api-adwords-php/. The home page has a getting started video, and the distribution has code examples that show how to do most of the common tasks. http://code.google.com/p/google-api-adwords-php/source/browse/trunk/examples/v201109/DownloadAdHocReport.php is a good place to get started for downloading reports. http://adwordsapi.blogspot.com/2011/11/discover-v201109-adhoc-reports.html gives a technical overview on using v201109 reports. http://adwordsapi.blogspot.com/2010/07/introduction-to-reportdefinitionservice.html and http://adwordsapi.blogspot.com/2010/07/discover-v201003-migrating-your-account.html are slightly older blogs on the same topic. There are some differences in the technical details in these blogs, but the basic concepts discussed there are still valid - especially for getting your entire account structure. Let me know if you have more questions. Cheers, Anash P.
