Hi everyone,
We are building an in-house reporting solution to generate some customized reports and put the obtained data on Google Spreadsheets. The reports are being generated with the following query (example for the month of August compared to ): SELECT AdNetworkType1,Clicks,Impressions,Ctr,AverageCpc,Cost,Conversions,CostPerConversion,ConversionRate FROM ACCOUNT_PERFORMANCE_REPORT DURING 20160801,20160831 However the data downloaded is not the same as the one found directly on Adwords interface considering the dates are exactly the same. On Adwords, the data is not segmented and it is set to see data about "All campaigns" (not "All enabled" or "All but removed"). Some examples: Search Network Clicks Adwords UI: 14927 Adwords API Data: 14246 Adwords API reporting 4.8% less clicks than the Adwords UI. Search Network Impressions Adwords UI: 511875 Adwords API Data: 422374 Adwords API reporting 21.19% less clicks than the Adwords UI. (!) Display Network Clicks Adwords UI: 37461 Adwords API Data: 38278 Adwords API reporting 2.18% more clicks than the Adwords UI. And the list goes on... These differences are present if I use AdNetworkType1 or AdNetworkType2 so this is not the source of the problem (as also demonstrated by differences on the Display Network). So the data discrepancies are quite high and right now make Adwords API reporting almost unusable. Do you have an idea why the data is not the same as in the Adwords UI? Also what would be the best way to solve this? Thanks.
