Hi Shwetha, No I haven't, but I'm not sure how much the Keyword Optimizer would be useful for my use case.
Basically, I just need a way, given a list of keywords, to identify which ones are low search volume (the ones that will yield systemServingStatus==RARELY_SERVED); I don't *think *(correct me if I'm wrong) that this is related to my account history in any way, as new keywords (unknown to my account) are instantly categorized as ELIGIBLE or RARELY_SERVED once I add them to an ad group. Because I potentially have more product references than the maximum number of keywords allowed in a single AdWords account, the only way I can think of, at the moment, is to use an ad group dedicated to categorizing keywords, and to: - add a batch of 20,000 keywords to the ad group - get the systemServingStatus for each keyword - remove the keywords from the ad group - rinse and repeat with the next keyword batch This would work, but seems highly inefficient (and will leave a huge number of deleted keywords in the account). Is there another AdWords API service that would allow me to know the systemServingStatus *without adding the keywords to an ad group*? Thanks in advance for any help, Benjamin On Friday, May 19, 2017 at 9:24:25 PM UTC+2, Shwetha Vastrad (AdWords API Team) wrote: > > Hi Benjamin, > > Have you tried using the Keyword Optimizer > <https://github.com/googleads/keyword-optimizer> to identify high-quality > keywords?
