Reading the release notes for V201309, I was excited to see
Placement Performance Report- Automatic placements are now included in this report. I am now attempting to identify automatic versus managed placements within this report. So I started at the UI and used the tab “Display Network” and then navigated to “Placements”. Noted the column “Status” provided me with the information and looked into the documentation for the report type<http://goo.gl/AoJ0lQ> and found the API field name. So I created the following report, and low and behold the API output gave me the values Paused, Deleted or Active for this and not the Managed, Automatic. What should my report definition look like to get column that designates a managed vs. automatic placement, like the "Status" column in the UI? <reportDefinition> <selector> <fields>Date</fields> <fields>AdNetworkType1</fields> <fields>Status</fields> <fields>CampaignName</fields> <fields>AdGroupName</fields> <fields>DestinationUrl</fields> <fields>CriteriaDestinationUrl</fields> <fields>PlacementUrl</fields> <fields>DisplayName</fields> <fields>Cost</fields> <fields>Impressions</fields> <fields>Clicks</fields> <fields>Conversions</fields> <fields>ViewThroughConversions</fields> <fields>Ctr</fields> <fields>AverageCpc</fields> <fields>ConversionRate</fields> <fields>CostPerConversion</fields> <fields>ConversionsManyPerClick</fields> <fields>ConversionValue</fields> - <dateRange> <min>20131001</min> <max>20131001</max> </dateRange> </selector> <reportName>Custom PLACEMENT_PERFORMANCE_REPORT</reportName> <reportType>PLACEMENT_PERFORMANCE_REPORT</reportType> <dateRangeType>CUSTOM_DATE</dateRangeType> <downloadFormat>XML</downloadFormat> </reportDefinition> -- -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog and discussion group: http://adwordsapi.blogspot.com http://groups.google.com/group/adwords-api =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.
