Re: Having trouble fetching asset group performance data

[Oliver]

Hi Johan,

When you say "*metrics now seem to be available*" are you actually seeing 
data for metrics like clicks, coversions, etc.  or are you referring to the 
fact the fields exist?  The fields have always been there but no data was 
ever returned for them (except impressions).

Oliver

Re: api down for ad_group_ad_asset_view

[Oliver]

The same problem is also happening with *customer_asset*.

Hence, so far, the following resources are reported in this thread as 
experiencing *Internal* errors:

   - *ad_group_ad_asset_view*
   - *asset*
   - *customer_asset*

Re: api down for ad_group_ad_asset_view

[Oliver]

The issue is NOT temporary. We already have a retry mechanism and even 
after 3 retries (minutes apart) the same operation is failing.  It failed 
thousands of times over the last few hours.  Please investigate at your end 
as this is the first time anything like this ever happened in our 10 years 
of using the API.

API DOWN for ad_group_ad_asset_view

[Oliver]

Hi,

For the last few hours, the following query (which has been running fine 
for a long time) suddnely started returning an INTERNAL error for all 
accounts.

SELECT 
campaign.id, 
ad_group.id, 
ad_group_ad.ad.id, 
asset.text_asset.text, 
metrics.impressions 
FROM ad_group_ad_asset_view
 WHERE asset.type IN ('TEXT') AND
ad_group_ad_asset_view.enabled = 'TRUE' AND
ad_group_ad.ad.type IN ('RESPONSIVE_SEARCH_AD')

Example request IDs that are failing *1syrBXafY0bYDn8vcOO*

Can someone from the API team please update us?

Oliver

Re: how to reproduce this ui report with the api?

[Oliver]

Hi Chad, I'm not from the API team but can contribute. The answer to your 2 
questions is 'No'.  The API does not give any historical meta data about 
statuses. The only way to achieve what you want is exactly what you 
described in your last message.

This data is not available for asset groups, neither in the UI or the API.

Re: Metrics not returned for RSA assets other than impressions in v12 - ad_group_ad_asset_view

Hi,

Where in the GAds dashboard do you see other metrics?  Can you please 
attach a screenshot?  As far as we can see, only impressions are visible.

Re: Batch job completion messages

[Rodney Oliver]

Hello,

I am getting the status from the batch job result.  However it seems to blank.  
My implementation was taken directly from the 
AddCompleteCampaignsUsingBatchJob.php example

See snippet below.

// Gets all the results from running batch job and print their information.
$batchJobResults = 
$this->googleAdsBatchServiceClient->listBatchJobResults(
$batchJobResourceName,
['pageSize' => self::PAGE_SIZE]
);
foreach ($batchJobResults->iterateAllElements() as $batchJobResult) {
/** @var BatchJobResult $batchJobResult */
printf(
"\t [%s] Batch job #%d has a status '%s' and response of type 
'%s'.%s",
date('Y-m-d H:i:s'), $batchJobResult->getOperationIndex(),
$batchJobResult->getStatus()
? $batchJobResult->getStatus()->getMessage() : 'N/A',
$batchJobResult->getMutateOperationResponse()
? 
$batchJobResult->getMutateOperationResponse()->getResponse()
: 'N/A',
PHP_EOL
);
}

Re: Missing field in asset_group_product_group_view report

[Oliver]

Hi Darwin,

There is a difference between a 'product' and a 'listing group'.  The 
suggestion you made retruns the product details which is not what we want.  
We want the listing group name which is completely different from the 
product name. We already attached a screenshot.

The original poster explained the issue very well.  I really have nothing 
to add to it.  I'll leave the rest to you.

It seems every time someone asks a question on this forum you guys ask for 
a request/response log without considering if this is a valid approach to 
answering the question.  The fact of the matter is we do not have a request 
log because we cannot even construct the request since we don't know what 
field name to use.  It really is frustrating why you guys do this all the 
time.

Oliver

Re: Missing field in asset_group_product_group_view report

[Oliver]

Hi Sherwin,

The question I asked on this thread has nothing to do with the other thread 
you mentioned.   As the original poster on this thread said, he uses the  
*asset_group_product_group_view *report to get the listing groups of 
Performance Max campaigns.  We also use this report for Performance Max 
campaigns.  We're not debating whether or not this is the right report.  My 
question is exactly the same as the question posted here i.e. where can we 
get the name of the listing group?   I already attached the screenshot you 
asked for but I attach it again for convenience. It shows the listing group 
name that we need.  

You aksed me to send you a request/response but the issue here is I do *not 
*have a request log because I don't know how to construct one in the first 
place.

Can you please refer back to the original question and let us know where 
this field can be found?

Regards

Oliver

Never mind. We found out we have to use *asset_group_product_group_view *and

How to get the listing groups of a Performance Max Retail campaign

[Oliver]

Hi,

Listing groups exist for both Shopping campaigns and Performance Max Retail 
campaigns.

We know how to get the listing groups in case of Shopping campaigns. 
However, the same query doesn't return anything for Performance Max Retail 
campaigns.

We use the following query to get the listing groups in Shopping campiagns:

SELECT  
campaign.id,  
ad_group.id,  
ad_group_criterion.criterion_id,  
ad_group_criterion.display_name,  
ad_group_criterion.listing_group.parent_ad_group_criterion,  
ad_group_criterion.listing_group.type  
FROM product_group_view  
WHERE campaign.id IN XXX

Any idea why the above query won't return the listing groups in Performance 
Max Retail campaigns?  What would the correct query be?

Oliver

Re: Error: The developer token is not approved.

[Jaime Oliver]

Hello Ernie,

I have followed basically all the guides you have available on this issue.

1) I created a test manager account in order to be able to create test user
accounts because this is the only way of doing that correct?
2) I have a live manager account with a dev token which is what I am using
in order to query the test accounts. However I still get access denied.
3) I have a GCP project where I have the OAUTH credentials and consent
screen setup.
4) I am using the following data:

*developerToken* - Unapproved token from the live manager account
*clientId* - Coming from the OAuth credentials
*clientSecret* - Coming from the OAuth credentials
*refreshToken* - Taken by authorizing APIs using OAuth Playground
*clientId* - Using the client ID from the test account that I want to
query. See screenshot below.
[image: image.png]

I have already asked for a dev token review. However I would like to be
able to understand the system and query test accounts for future
development cases. Some guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for
your time.

USER_PERMISSION_DENIED - User doesn't have permission to access customer.

[Jaime Oliver]

I am having some real issues trying to use the Google Ads API. 

I have followed all the steps to get the app running and authenticated. I 
am using the LaravelExampleApp from here: 
https://github.com/googleads/google-ads-php/blob/HEAD/examples/LaravelSampleApp/README.md

I am getting this error when trying to run a report : 
"authorizationError":"USER_PERMISSION_DENIED"},"message":"User doesn't have 
permission to access customer. Note: If you're accessing a client customer, 
the manager's customer id must be set in the 'login-customer-id' header.

I am using the developerToken from my live manager account from the API 
Center along with my cientID and clientSecret and refreshToken from the GCP 
Project and OAuth credentials. I created a TEST Manager account so that I 
could create a TEST CLIENT account. I updated those credentials inside the 
google_ads_php.ini file in my project folder.

The app runs but when I try to run a report against the test client account 
using the test client_id I get that error. I tried to link or create the 
test client account inside my live manager account but was unable to do so. 

My developer token is only allowed to run reports on test accounts but it 
doesn't let me run reports on any of the test accounts I created under the 
Test Manager account.

This is all overly complicated. Can anyone provide some assistance?

Error: The developer token is not approved.

[Jaime Oliver]

I am getting this error when trying to run a report using my customerID. 

*Error: The developer token is not approved. Non-approved developer tokens 
can only be used with test accounts.*

When I created my manager account in order to interact with the API, there 
was a google ads account automatically created. This is what I'm using as 
my CustomerID. Is this not the correct account I should be using when 
querying?

Re: Extension Upgraded - how to get from API

[Oliver]

We're having the same issue.  Using *ad_group_asset* and *customer_asset 
*doesn't 
help.  The upgraded extensions are not returned at any level.

Can you please keep us updated on this forum with the solution to this 
issue?

Re: No extensions returned when they should

[Oliver]

Hi Jakeia,

I'm not sure why we're talking about feed-based extensions here.  According 
to Google's announcement 
<https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/10514212>, all sitelinks 
extensions (in every account in the world) have now migrated to asset-based 
extensions.  We're not trying to access any feed-based metrics here.  We're 
using *campaign_asset* which accesses only asset-based extensions.  If all 
sitelink extension have indeed been migrated to asset-based extensions 
(like Google says), then the *campaign_asset *query should return them.

If the above argument is correct, can you please look into why we're not 
getting back any sitelink extensions when querying *camapign_asset*?  This 
is happening with some (but not all) of our customer accounts.

Oliver

Re: No extensions returned when they should

[Oliver]

Hi,

Thanks for your response.   The formatting issue picked up by the Query 
Builder happened due to copy & paste of the string here.  However, the 
query is formatted correctly in our code and is running correctly in 
production.  In any case, the issue is still there even if we remove all 
the WHERE conditions.  Please run the below query on the accounts we 
mentioned and you will see that no sitelinks are returned when infact the 
account has a lot of active sitelinks.


*SELECT asset.policy_summary.approval_status, campaign_asset.campaign, 
campaign_asset.resource_name, campaign_asset.field_type, 
campaign_asset.status FROM campaign_asset *

Please advise.

Oliver

No extensions returned when they should

[Oliver]

Hello API team,

We believe Google has now upgraded all sitelink ad extensions (according to 
this <https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/10514212>).  Hence, we 
believe all such extensions can now be retrieved by querying *account_asset* 
and *campaign_asset.*

We are, however, experiencing issues in a number of accounts where the 
sitelinks extensions are not returned (while the sitelinks can be seen in 
the Google UI).  We haven't yet tested for other extensions so we're not 
saying the issue is confined only to sitelinks. 

Below is one example of one such request and a response:
















*Request---MethodName:

Any idea why this is happening?

DSA ads are not supported by the new API because they are legacy ads.  Only 
the newer type *Expanded DSA *ads are supported.

Re: Performance max campaign not returned in campaign_budget report

[Oliver]

We asked the exact same question few weeks 
ago: https://groups.google.com/g/adwords-api/c/UIFVRN3fM1M

Google's response early March was:

*Just a brief update - it does look like there's an issue here, thanks for 
pointing it out. I'm not sure why metrics from Performance Max campaigns 
aren't showing up in the campaign_budget resource, but I'm checking with 
the team to see if this is expected or not. I'll follow up with more 
information as soon as I can.*
We still haven't heard back with any more updates.

Zero cost omitted from results

[Oliver]

Hi,
I have a fairly simple python script that runs a query to get the 
cost_micros, day, date for a given campaign.

It works fine but I've noticed that any days where no cost was accrued are 
not included in the results - e.g. it will go from Jan 1st to Jan 3rd if 
there was no spend on Jan 2nd. This gives an incomplete picture of the 
data, which is difficult to amend after retrieving.

Is there a way to force zero results to be included? I haven't been able to 
find anything in the docs for this.

Here is the query:









*SELECTmetrics.cost_micros,segments.day_of_week,segments.date,  
  customer.currency_codeFROM campaignWHERE campaign.status = 'ENABLED'AND 
segments.date >= '2020-01-01' AND segments.date <= '2021-01-01'ORDER BY 
segments.date, campaign.name*

Thanks in advance if anyone has any ideas!

Malformed auth code

[Oliver]

Hi,

Please note, I previously had an issue getting the refresh token, which I 
posted about here:
https://groups.google.com/g/adwords-api/c/8tW1GPj_u6E?hl=en

This thread is about a different issue, with a different error.

I've been getting refresh tokens successfully but today I'm getting a 
"*Malformed 
auth code*" error.

Visiting the request URL works fine as evidenced by the output in the 
browser:


*Authorization code was successfully retrieved.**Please check the console 
output.*

But, instead of displaying the token, the terminal shows the following 
error:


















*Traceback (most recent call last):  File 
"/home/.../authenticate_in_web_application.py", line 206, in

Google Ads cannot create refresh token

[Oliver]

Hi,

I've been creating refresh tokens successfully for some time now, but 
suddenly it doesn't work, even though I'm using the same code.

This issue is similar 
to https://groups.google.com/g/adwords-api/c/xEWD6khWmcI/m/_jjTxl3uAgAJ?pli=1 
but seeing as there was no solution there other than "use a different 
computer" or "reinstall your OS", I'm posting again as neither of those 
suggestions are particularly suitable for me.

I'm using the Python client library locally 
(https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/client-libs)

I'm calling authenticate-in-web-application.py. It gets as far as opening 
the browser: http://localhost:8080 but when it opens I get the following 
error message:












*Waiting for authorization and callback to: 
http://localhost:8080...Traceback (most recent call last):  File 
"/home/.../authenticate_in_web_application.py", line 203, in 
main(args.client_secrets_path, configured_scopes)  File 
"/home/.../authenticate_in_web_application.py", line 81, in maincode = 
_get_authorization_code(passthrough_val)  File 
"/home/.../authenticate_in_web_application.py", line 112, in 
_get_authorization_codeparams = _parse_raw_query_params(data)  File 
"/home/.../authenticate_in_web_application.py", line 160, in 
_parse_raw_query_paramsparams = match.group(1)AttributeError: 
'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'*
---

On line 157 of the above file, inside the _parse_raw_query_params(data) 
function there is this line:

*decoded = data.decode("utf-8")*

The variable 'decoded' at this point contains the following:















*GET / HTTP/1.1Host: localhost:8080Connection: keep-alivesec-ch-ua: " Not 
A;Brand";v="99", "Chromium";v="99", "Google Chrome";v="99"sec-ch-ua-mobile:

Seems like there should be some args with the GET on the first line?
The next 2 lines are:

*match = re.search("GET\s\/\?(.*) ", decoded)*
*params = match.group(1)* <-- Error here (match is 'NoneType')

I re-downloaded the client libaray, and created a fresh virtual 
environment, but nothing I've tried so far has helped, so if anyone has any 
ideas, I'd be very grateful!!

Python version is 3.9.10 (but this hasn't changed since it was working last 
week)

Re: Performance Max campaigns data not returned in campaign_budget

[Oliver]

Just to confirm, the Performance Max campaign ID is returned by the above 
query but with no performance data (clicks, impressions) when the campaign 
actually has a lot of clicks and impressions in the time period.  In other 
words, it is visible but the performance data is incorrect.  

Here are the IDs:

Customer ID: 6725963874
The performance max Campaign ID: 15696211884

Regards

Oliver

Performance Max campaigns data not returned in campaign_budget

[Oliver]

Hi,

We're using v9 of the Ads API.  The below GAQL query returns the budget 
performance data for all campaigns in the account except for the 
Performance Max ones.  Are Performance Max campaigns not supported yet in 
the *campaign_budget* view?

We confirm the campaign we're referring to is enabled and has performance 
data in the date range below.

SELECT campaign_budget.id,  
metrics.clicks, 
metrics.impressions, 
metrics.cost_micros, 
FROM campaign_budget  
WHERE campaign_budget.status IN (ENABLED)  
AND campaign_budget.reference_count >= 1  
AND segments.date BETWEEN '20220201' AND '20220218'

Re: campaignCriterion.bidModifier returns 1 while UI shows 0%

Apologies, the last bullet point should say an API value of 9!

Re: campaignCriterion.bidModifier returns 1 while UI shows 0%

[Oliver]

The way it works in API is different from UI.  Here are examples of how the 
2 values are mapped:

   - UI value of 0% = API value of 1
   - UI value of -10% = API value of 0.9
   - UI value of 10% = API value of 1.1
   - UI value of 800% = API value of 8

You can easily translate between the 2 values using the above logic.  This 
applies to all bid modifiers.

How to get the name of a CustomerLabel?

[Oliver]

Hi,

Apologies if I am missing something very obious but according to this:
https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v9/customer_label

the only info we can get about a customer label is its resource name (which 
gives us only the ID).  The attributes *customer_label.label *and 
*customer_label.resource_name 
*seem to give the same info which is the resource name.  We verified this 
by testing it.

How do we get the actual name of the label in this case?

Oliver

Rows returned is wrong

['oliver zhao' via AdWords API and Google Ads API Forum]

Hi,

I'm using GoogleAds API V9.
GAQL Query:

as expected, there should be no records which impressions = 0. but I found 
one in the result.

Re: How to get products under specific product groups?

[Oliver]

Thanks for the responses.

Regarding *Aryeh's *response:  The solution you're proposing is essentially 
to find out the full criteria of a product group (type, brand, ID, etc.) by 
analyzing the heirarchy in the *ad_group_criterion.display_name *and then 
filtering the *shopping_performance_view *with those conditions.  This is 
the same as the reverse engineering solution Mat mentioned.  In additon to 
the problems Mat mentioned with this solution, there is also another reason 
this solution will not work. 

Consider the scenario when one of the subdivisions in your hierarchy is the 
*Everything 
else* product group (see the screenshot below).  In the example I show in 
the screenshot, the* cafe appliances *product group sits under a parent 
called *Everything else in kitchen>cooking*.  The condition of this 
parent node is basically the opposite of all other nodes at that parent 
level.  Hence, for me to filter by that condition I'll have to find all 
other nodes, etc. and work out the opposite condition of all of them.  You 
can see how messy this can get.

What we need is, like what Mat said, a way to segment the* 
shopping_performance_view *by the product group ID (i.e. 
*ad_group_criterion.criterion_id*). At the moment, 
*shopping_performance_view* can't be segmented by anything related to the 
product groups. Segmenting by adgroup is not of much help because obviously 
there are lots of product groups per adgroup and we want to zoom into one 
product group only.

I considered using the Content API for this but my understanding is that 
API deals only with the data in the Merchant Centre and hence doesn't know 
anything about the product group structure.  Please correct me if I'm wrong.

It's puzzling why something as simple as this is so hard to do in the API.  
In the Google UI, it's very easy to see the products under a product group. 

Any ideas?

Re: How to get products under specific product groups?

[Oliver]

Hi Aryeh,

The scenario you're talking about works only if the product groups are 
subdivided by item ID.  This way, each product group represents one product 
and hence why you see product_item_id in the data returned from 
product_group_view.

However, subdividing by item ID is not the only way of subdividing product 
groups. In fact, it's not common at all.  Product groups can also be 
sub-divided by brand, type, etc. in which case the product_item_id will *not 
*be available in the data returned from product_group_view.

Has anyone else tried to solve this problem before?  Your contribution is 
much appreciated.

Oliver

Re: How to get products under specific product groups?

[Oliver]

Hi Aryeh,

Thanks for your response.  I don't believe, however, this is how it works. * 
product_group_view *gives us data about only product groups (listing 
groups), and not individual products.  The *product_item_id *you're 
referring to is the that of the product group subdvision.  The 
*parent_ad_group_criterion* gives us the parent subdivion and not the 
product.

If I'm mistaken, can someone please correct me but, from what I see, 
*product_group_view* returns data about product groups only while 
*shopping_performance_view* returns data about products only and there is 
no way to link these 2 data sets or figure out which products belong to 
which product group.

Oliver

How to get products under specific product groups?

[Oliver]

Hi,

I'm aware I can use* product_group_view* to get the list of product groups 
(aka listing groups) in a campaign.

I'm also aware I can use *shopping_performance_view* to get the list of 
products in a campaign.

I'm trying to determine which products fall under which product groups.  I 
don't see a way to use the product group IDs I get from *product_group_view* 
when 
querying the products data from *shopping_performance_view.*

What am I missing?  Is there any way I can determine which products fall 
under which product group?

Oliver

Re: Getting ENUM_VALUE_NOT_PERMITTED

Hi Jakeia,

Yes it works if we use *=* instead of *IN*.  However, how is this going to 
work if we want to include more statuses as follows:

*AND ad_group_ad.policy_summary.approval_status IN (APPROVED, 
APPROVED_LIMITED) *

Is it possible to include more than one enum value if we use *=* ?

Getting ENUM_VALUE_NOT_PERMITTED

[Oliver]

We used the *Query Migration Tool *to migrate one of our AWQL queries to 
the below GAQL.  However, when running this query we get an 
*ENUM_VALUE_NOT_PERMITTED 
*error.

*SELECT ad_group.id, *
*ad_group_ad.ad.id,*
*metrics.clicks,*
*metrics.impressions  *
*FROM ad_group_ad *
*WHERE campaign.id IN (968861968) *
*AND ad_group_ad.status IN (ENABLED) *
*AND ad_group.status IN (ENABLED) *
*AND ad_group_ad.ad.type IN (EXPANDED_TEXT_AD) *
*AND ad_group_ad.policy_summary.approval_status IN (APPROVED) *
*AND segments.date DURING LAST_30_DAYS*

The error we get is this:

*Request ID 4ek3bYb5BvN-OhB3C0yNpQ failed due to GoogleAdsException. 
Underlying errors:*
*  Error 0: error_code {*
*  enum_error: ENUM_VALUE_NOT_PERMITTED*
*}*
*message: "The enum value is not permitted."*


The query works if we run it without the below line:
*AND ad_group_ad.policy_summary.approval_status IN (APPROVED) *


Any idea why this condition is causing an issue?

Oliver

Re: Shared List data mismatch between Google Ads UI and API

[Oliver]

Hi Aryeh,

Apologies, I actually gave you the version of the query that works.  We 
were testing various ways to get this data and the below version of the 
query (where we specify the Shared Set ID instead of specifying the 
campaign ID) is the one that doesn't work.

The below query returns an association between shared set ID *7677837490 * and 
campaign ID *12531200580:*

*SELECT campaign.id, shared_set.name, shared_set.id FROM 
campaign_shared_set WHERE shared_set.id IN (7677837490)*

We will use the first version we mentioned in the previous post.  However, 
there is clearly an inconsistency in the data served by the API.

Regards

Oliver

Started getting INTERNAL_ERROR in Google Ads API

[Oliver]

Hi,

We're using Google Ads v8 (Java library).  We started getting an 
INTERNAL_ERROR when attempting to query some data from the 
*landing_page_view*.  This is happening with only one account (ID: 
2564310082). The same query works work with all other accounts. We don't 
beleive the data size is an issue because the query works with accounts 
with much more data.  

We attempted the failed query twice and here are the 2 request IDs:

*S7avTfzFpp2t5PUj2h4oxw*
*qiHKx0OpIZJTagQGsS8c9g*

Any ideas what is happening?

Oliver

Shared List data mismatch between Google Ads UI and API

[Oliver]

Hi Google team,

We noticed an issue that is happening in few different accounts.  We're 
using Google Ads API v8.

We use the following query to retrieve which negative keyword lists (shared 
sets) are associated with which campaign: 

*SELECT campaign.id, shared_set.name, shared_set.id FROM 
campaign_shared_set WHERE campaign.id IN (12531200580) AND shared_set.type 
IN ('NEGATIVE_KEYWORDS') AND campaign_shared_set.status IN ('ENABLED')*
 
In some accounts, the info returned has a slight mismatch.  For example, in 
*Account 
ID:  1591967311*, the API data indicates that *Shared Set ID  7677837490 *is 
linked/associated with *campaign ID 12531200580*.  However, the Google UI 
data doesn't show such a relationship.

When we revert back to the Adwords API, the data returned matches exactly 
the UI.  Only the Google Ads API returns different data.

The above mismatch is happening in few other accounts.  We gave only one 
example above.

Any ideas what is going on?

Oliver

Generate Historical Metrics

['Oliver Hayman' via AdWords API and Google Ads API Forum]

Hi there,

I'm trying to write a script that will query the average monthly search 
volumes from the Google Ads API, and store them.

However, the issue I'm encountering is that whilst I can get data back from 
the API, it doesn't give me search volumes for *every *keyword I request 
with about 10-15% of them missing from the response.

I'm not sure whether it's just that it's grouping similar keywords together 
and only returning me data on one of them, or what the issue is, but if 
anyone could shed some light on it (or have any fixes) that'd be really 
helpful.

I've tried both KeywordPlanService.GenerateHistoricalMetrics 
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/keyword-planning/generate-historical-metrics>
 and KeywordPlanIdeaService.GenerateKeywordIdeas 
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/reference/rpc/v8/GenerateKeywordIdeasRequest>
 methods 
- and both seem to encounter this same issue.

Is there any way to get around it? The previous AdWords API would simply 
return the search volumes for all the keywords you entered regardless.

Many thanks,
Oliver

Re: Why are AdWords API reports being deprecated now?

[Oliver]

Hi Nadine,

We appreciate you taking the time to elaborate on the reasons behind this 
recent announcement.  While you might have good reasons for this, the main 
issue here is the conflict between the messages you gave your customers.  
We feel these plans were not communicated clearly to allow us to plan 
accordingly.  

We were told we will have a year after the sunset announcement of the 
Adwords API.  We're aware you deprecated various fields in the Adwords API 
over time but none of those deprecations were anywhere as big as the recent 
announcement.   Even when you deprecated the Placement_Performance_Report 
recently, there was an alternative in the Automatic_Placement_Report.  
However, the latest announcement deprecates even that one last option to 
get any automatic placements data at all from the Adwords API and hence has 
a much bigger impact.

You mentioned some developers started migrating last year. We chose not to 
for few reasons including: 1) missing features we needed, 2) new API 
versions constantly being released (and sometimes with big changes) which 
would have required more code maintenance 3) most importantly, again, 
because we thought we have one year after the final announcement and hence 
had no reason to migrate sooner.   Had we known earlier this will happen, 
our plans would have been very different.

Can you please at least consider extending the 12th July deprecation by a 
month or two?  We're sure it'll be highly appreciated by everyone who is 
now starting the migration process.

Oliver

Re: Why are AdWords API reports being deprecated now?

[Oliver]

Hi Peter,

We appreciate if your team give your customers a bit more time to plan the 
migration.  That announcement is giving us 4 weeks to migrate to the Ads 
API before 2 important reports are removed.  What is the point of the Apr 
2022 deprecation deadline if essential parts of the AdWords API are 
deprecated much earlier?  This is really puzzling and unexpected.

What is even much more concerning is that in yesterday's webinar 
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QaNf-JGCGU>your team mentioned that you 
will be deprecating even more of the AdWords API in the next couple of 
months!  Why?  The reason your team gave is that it's because the features 
are deprecated in the web interface.  This is not correct! The 2 reports 
above you're planning to deprecate in 4 weeks time are not going to be 
removed from the UI.  

Judging by how many people were concerned in yesterday's webinar about the 
same issue, we're sure a lot of your customers are not happy about this 
announcement.  It's our hope that your team will listen and find a better 
way of managing this transition.

Oliver

Why are AdWords API reports being deprecated now?

[Oliver]

Regarding this announcement:
https://ads-developers.googleblog.com/2021/06/deprecating-url-performance-report-and.html

What is the reason for deprecating major reports like the above ones in the 
AdWords APi when that API is still supported until Apr next year?

This is very frustrating and unexpected from a company like Google.  The 
AdWords API is officially supported and hence we expect you to at least 
leave it as it is until deprecation for apps that rely on it.  

You can't expect people to jump on migrating to the Ads API when you have 
officially only made it production ready a month or two ago.  Some of your 
customers have millions of lines of code to migrate and have been waiting 
for you to fix what had been a slow and buggy Ads API for over a year.  
This is the last thing we expect to have to deal with!

Is this now going to be Google's policy of slow shutting down parts of the 
AdWords API to force people to migrate in a very short time?

Really frustrating

Oliver

Re: Google Ads API: cannot filter by a field which is not in select

[Oliver]

Hi Xiaoming,

This is quite a serious deviation from how the Adwords API behaves.  
Including a field in the SELECT clause causes segmentation which might not 
be wanted.  It's perfectly valid to want to filter the data (WHERE) but not 
segment it (SELECT).  If data is segmented, we can not easily get the 
aggregate performance we want.  There should be no logical or business 
reason to have to include a field in SELECT for it to also be included in 
WHERE.

There are a few worrying differences between the new and old API. Unless 
the Ads API behaves exactly like the Adwords API from a logical point of 
view, a LOT of apps will break when migrating and there is no easy fix to 
this.  Why is the new API being done in such a way that is different from 
how you pushed your old API for years? These are not small changes; they 
are major breaking ones with no added benefit to your users. 

Please guys consider the impact your new API is going to have. We already 
are going to 'waste' so much effort to upgrade for no functional benefit.  
Please consider making the life of your users easier.

Oliver

Re: Strange behavior of Demographic criterion

[Oliver]

Hi Bharani,

Thanks but this is not what we were asking.  We are already aware of 
everything you mentioned as we stated in our first post.

Our concern is when we use ADD to add a new modifier for an AgeRange 
criterion to an adgroup, the result of this operation removes/excludes all 
other AgeRanges in that adgroup.  Please refer to the post we linked to in 
our previous message for confirmation.

What we expect to happen is for other AgeRange criterion to stay the same.  
This doesn't seem to be the case.

Please confirm why other criterion are removed as a result of adding a 
criterion?

Oliver

Strange behavior of Demographic criterion

[Oliver]

We're using AdWords API v201809

We need to be able to set bid modifiers for AgeRange, Gender, etc.  We're 
aware we have to use *AdgroupCriterionService* (*not* 
AdGroupBidModifierService) for this and provide the relevant 
*BiddableAdGroupCriterion* objects.

It seems, however, to set a bid modifier, we have to use the ADD operator 
(and not SET).  This is because, even though the UI is showing the criteron 
is enabled (i.e. added), it's added by default and not by user choice.   If 
an adgroup has multiple *AgeRange* criterion enabled by default, and you 
ADD one criterion so you can set its bid modifier, all other AgeRange 
criterion are excluded/removed imemdiately!  This behavior is confirmed in this

by Srilakshmi on 28/6/2018.  

We find this way the API works very strange and confusing.  It means we 
can't set a bid modifier on such criterion before first getting all the 
existing criterion in an adgroup, ADD them all first so that they are no 
longer added by default, and then use the SET operator to change the bid 
modifier.  

This doesn't sound right so we're hoping we missed something somewhere.  
Can you please confirm how bid modifiers should be set for Demographic 
criterion?

Thanks

Oliver

Re: What is possible with Google Ads API vs not possible with AdWords API?

[Oliver]

Well said.  We still can't believe a company with the calibre, reputation 
and resources of Google can come up with such a comparably poor API for the 
exact one product that makes them most of their money.  We really are at 
loss as to what to make of this new API.

Re: Ads api v1 - login-customer-id with MCC above client

[Oliver]

Wow.. if what Bas is saying is true, this is a major showstopper!  There 
might be no way of finding out info about the parent MCC because the 
authenticated user might not have permission.  Even if he has permission, 
why does the new API work like this?It's a perfectly common scenario 
for tools to want to access the data of one account without needing to be 
aware of who its parent is.  The old API allows this and rightly it 
should.  Please consider fixing major limitations like this as this is 
enough to cause many apps to stop working completely.

Re: [4-6034000026529] Why Google Ads API doesn't support CSV downloads?

[Oliver]

Thanks Ben for your response.  I’ll list below the reporting concerns we 
have and, since you’ll be discussing this with your team, we’ll include 
also a couple of other concerns we have regarding the new API.

Our main problem with the new API is that it doesn’t allow downloading in a 
.csv format.  We’re not sure what the reason behind this could be but the 
csv download functionality was a significant component in the old API that 
was heavily promoted by the documentation and used by us (and am sure many 
others).  Our Java app is close to 1 million lines of code built primarily 
around downloading those csv reports.  We download tens of thousands of 
reports daily serving customers that have hundreds of thousands of ads and 
keywords.   Re-engineering our codebase using the new API will require a 
huge investment in time and resources (and no benefit) and will potentially 
slow down the download speed (we share Stepanian's concerns 
<https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/adwords-api/L94G_cJax2g> raised on 
7th May).  We personally find the csv reporting functionality of the old 
API a very robust feature that makes the API easy to understand and use.  
We’re really not sure why it was decided to not port all these benefits 
across to the new API.  

Other concerns we have:

   - The performance degradation reported by this user 
   
<https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/adwords-api/50$20times%7Csort:date/adwords-api/fZMov7jBeX0/xG6K6enfCwAJ>
 
   is of particular concern to u.  We’re sure you’ll resolve it in the future 
   but we raise this issue here to highlight the fact the new API might not be 
   production ready yet with such performance.
   - There are few minor but important features that are no longer 
   supported in new API. As an example, retrieving account hierarchies is 
   straightforward in the old API but not with the new API 
   <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/adwords-api/Xu_v-dnpVug>.  This 
   is a very common scenario needed by apps that support agencies and large 
   users.  We, and everybody else, now need to put in additional work 
   re-engineering our codebase for no apparent benefit.


It was good hearing fron you that the one year deadline to shut down the 
old API is not set in stone.  

Out of interest, what was the reason to phase out the old API? IMHO it is a 
very robust and elegant API that does the job very well.  It’d be a shame 
to migrate to something that is not as user friendly and fast as the old 
API.

Best regards

Oliver

Why Google Ads API doesn't support CSV downloads?

[Oliver]

We find it very strange and frustrating that the new API does not provide a 
standard way of downloading the data in CSV format. We're told to write our 
own code to do this as mentioned here: 
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/adwords-api/L94G_cJax2g

The Adwords API documentation clearly encouraged users to try and get data 
via reports as opposed to the Service API.  It's now a massive blow to 
users who followed your previous advice and built their apps around the 
usage of reports.

Judging by the many complaints on this forum about the various limitations 
and bugs in the new Ads API, and by the fact that a huge part of 
downloading data via reports is no longer supported, having to migrate to 
the new API in less than one year is a very significant challenge to us 
and, as we can see here, to many users of the API.

1) Can we please ask you to consider supporting data download via reports 
as this alone is a massive showstopper in the migration process?

2) Can we also please ask you to consider extending the period when the 
Adwords API will stop working?  One year is not enough to migrate large 
apps especially when the new Ads API seems to have many serious issues 
currently with performance and fundamental data structures as frequently 
raised on this forum recently.

We've always found the Adwords API planning carefully took developers and 
businesses needs into consideration more than any other similar API.  We're 
hoping you'll continue to listen to the many requests of other users on 
this forum regarding the serious challenges we're currently facing with the 
new API.

Re: Placement Performance report has duplicate rows

[Oliver]

Hi Luis,

If this report is always segmented by the AdGroupId, then IMHO the 
documentation is not accurate.  The report documentation says:


*The Placements Performance report includes all statistics aggregated at 
the placement level, one row per placement.*

This is obviously not true because the data is not aggregated at the 
placement level. We're not sure what aggregation is being referred to in 
the documentation in this case.

Regards

Oliver

Re: Placement Performance report has duplicate rows

[Oliver]

Hi Luis,

I don't have access to the complete report definition unfortunately.  We 
use AWQL to download reports and here is the query we use in this case for 
customer ID 5205280896:

SELECT CampaignId, AverageCpc, Clicks, ConversionRate, Conversions, 
ConversionValue, Cost, CostPerConversion, Ctr, Impressions, Criteria, Id 
FROM PLACEMENT_PERFORMANCE_REPORT WHERE CampaignId IN [1476506364, 
599824041] AND AdGroupStatus IN [ENABLED] AND IsNegative = FALSE AND 
AdNetworkType1 IN ['CONTENT', 'MIXED'] AND Impressions >= 1 DURING 
20180501,20181030

I hope the above is enough for you to be able to investigate the issue.

Regards

Oliver

Placement Performance report has duplicate rows

[Oliver]

The documentation for the Placement Performance report (v201809) state that 
data is aggregated at the placement level.

When we download this placement report for customer ID 5205280896 (for the 
period  1st May 2018 - 30th Oct 2018) we get many duplicate rows where the 
placement data is not aggregated.  See attached screenshot for an example 
where there are 2 rows for the same campaign.

These are all automatic placements because the Criterion ID is -- as per 
the documentation.  We're filtering for IsNegative = false  i.e. we're not 
downloading excluded placements.

Any idea why the aggregation is not working as expected?

Oliver

Re: Duplicate rows in placement performance report

[Oliver]

We're also seeing this issue in the Placement Performance Report i.e. 2 
rows for the same placement (in same camapign ID).  However, in our case, 
both rows don't have a criterion ID which, according to the documentation 
of this report, mean that both rows are automatic placements.  We're 
puzzled as to why the 2 rows are not aggregated as per the documentation?

Ad_Performance_Report does not match UI

[Oliver]

>From time to time, we come across an adgroup where the API returns more ads 
than there are in the UI.  API operations on those additional ads 
subsequently fail with a MUTATE_ACTION_NOT_PERMITTED_FOR_CLIENT  error 
which normally means that these ads were created in Adwords Express.  
However, we are assured by the account owner that Adwords Express was never 
used in the history of the account.  The Campaign_Performance_Report also 
confirms that the channel type and subtype does not contain 'Express'.

Here is one example we came across today:

Customer ID: 2533687629. 
Camapign ID:  125023188. 
Adgroup ID:  4920116748. 

When downloading only enabled Expanded Text Ads (ETAs), the API is giving 
us 4 enabled ads with IDs   323197102481, 285409627137, 332424239689, 
332424364303.

However, the UI is showing only one ETA with ID  285409627137.

Any idea why the API is giving more enabled ads than the UI, and why 
operations on these additional ads fail?

Any Java code example for retrieving negative placements?

[Oliver]

We'd like to use *AdGroupCriterionService.get() *to retrieve the negative 
placements (exclusions) at the adgroup level for the whole account.  

Is there any Java code example? If not, can someone please be kind enough 
to show how the selector for the get() method should look like in this case?

We're aware we can perhaps use reports as well but we want to use 
*AdGroupCriterionService* class because it gives the app names and video 
names (whereas reports don't).

Thanks

Oliver

How to get excluded placements at the adgroup level?

[Oliver]

Placements can be excluded at either adgroup, campaign, account or list 
level.  We know how to retrieve the excluded placements at all of these 
levels except for adgroup level.  Can you please advise how the adgroup 
level excluded placements can be downloaded?

Re: Account labels in API are not correct

Thanks Dorian.  That explains exactly what is happening.  We're seeing 
different labels dependent on which MCC ID we use to retrieve the data.  
It's very confusing though why this was designed to work like this!

Account labels in API are not correct

[Oliver]

We use *ManagedCustomer.accountLabels* to retireve the account lables for 
all accounts in a hierarchy of an MCC together with all its sub MCCs.

The account labels returned for the sub MCCs do not match the labels those 
accounts actually have.  This issue seems to happen only for the sub MCCs.

Any ideas what the reason could be?

Re: Field AllConv.Value/Cost not available in reports?

[Oliver]

Thanks Jude.

Although computing this figure manually is possible, it's not practical 
when you need to do it for millions of data points a day.

The *All Conv Value / Cost*, commonly known as ROAS (return on ad spend), 
is an extremely useful metric especially for ecommerce advertisers.  It 
would really be of great help if you can include it in the reports.

Re: Expanded Dynamic Search Ads using AdGroupAdService V201705

We assumed this ad type is not supported in reports because there is no

Re: Expanded Dynamic Search Ads using AdGroupAdService V201705

[Oliver]

Are you referring to getting them returned in the AD_PERFORMANCE_REPORT? or 
from the service object?

There is no equivalent to Expanded DSA ad type for the report.

Re: Expanded Dynamic Search Ads using AdGroupAdService V201705

[Oliver]

Hi Anthony,

There is no AdType = EXPANDED_DYNAMIC_SEARCH_AD in the Ad performance 
report.  We reported this on another thready a couple of weeks ago. 
 v201705 doesn't seem to support this ad type yet at all.  We're also 
unable to download this new ad type.

Re: Unable to create DynamicSearchAd in v201705

[Oliver]

Thanks.  However, we're still able to create these ads in the web interface 
in this type of adgroup.This inconsistency makes it confusing to our 
users who question why it's possible in web interface but not API.

Re: AdType for expanded dynamic search ad in AD_PERFORMANCE_REPORT

[Oliver]

We use v201705 and we currently can't download *Expanded DSA* because there 
is no type for it.  We don't want to use type UNKNOWN in case we get back 
other unwanted ad types as well.

A new enum value for this ad type would be great!

Re: Unable to create DynamicSearchAd in v201705

[Oliver]

Hi Shwetha,

You say:
*>> You can only create Dynamic Search Ads 
<https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/dynamic-search-ads> in 
ad groups with adGroupType 
<https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201705/AdGroupService.AdGroup#adgrouptype>
 as 
SEARCH_DYNAMIC_ADS.*

We don't believe this is the case.  We're referring here to *DynamicSearchAd 
*and *not *ExpandedDynamicSearchAd.  We've always been able to create 
*DynamicSearchAd* in adgroups with type  SEARCH_STANDARD.  The 
documentation below also confirms we can do this:
http://googleadsdeveloper.blogspot.co.uk/2017/05/validation-rules-for-new-dynamic-ad.html?m=0=fi

The last paragraph in the above document says:
*>> Ad groups with AdGroupType

affected by this change. You can still continue adding expanded text ads, 
dynamic search ads, call ads, and various criterion types 
<https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/criteria-usage> to 
them.*

Example adgroup ID:  19597050263

Just to confirm, I'm not referring to creating the new Expanded DSA.  I'm 
referring to only DSA.

Looking forward to hearing back from you.

Oliver

Unable to create DynamicSearchAd in v201705

[Oliver]

Since upgrading to v201705, we're unable to create new ads od type 
*DynamicSearchAd*.  We get back this error:  
*OPERATION_NOT_PERMITTED_FOR_AD_GROUP_TYPE*

The adgroups in which we want to create the DSA allow this type of ad.  The 
adgroups are of type SEARCH_STANDARD which according to the below should 
allow DSA ads:
http://googleadsdeveloper.blogspot.co.uk/2017/05/validation-rules-for-new-dynamic-ad.html?m=0=fi

The ads can be created via the web interface, but not the API.

Any ideas why this is happening?

TEMPLATE_AD AdType in Report

[Oliver]

We noticed that, when downloading an AD_PERFORMANCE_REPORT with AdType 
field set to *TEMPLATE_AD,* we get back gmail ads as well as Html5 ads in 
the report.

We need to be able to to differentiate between these 2 distinct ad types in 
the report.  

Is there a way to do so?

How to get image(s) of a html5 ad?

[Oliver]

In the Adwords web interface, we see the html5 ad as shown in the attached 
screenshot.  When we click on the html5 ad, we can see all the images in an 
ad.

How can we get these images via the API?

With other type of image ads (uploaded image ads), we get an Image URL in 
the *Ad Performance Report*.  However, with html5 ads, there is no URL in 
the report?

Re: Optional Path fields in Expanded Text Ads and CSV Reports

[Oliver]

We believe path1 and path2 used to be blank until early last week.  The " 
--" is something we started seeing only last week as our parsing code broke 
for exactly this reason.

FINAL URL report contains multiple entries per URL?

[Oliver]

When we download the FINAL_URL report, including the following columns:

- ExternalCustomerId
- EffectiveFinalUrl
- Clicks
- Impressions
- Conversions
- Cost
- CostPerConversion
- ConversionRate

We get the same URL repeated in multiple rows but with different 
performance data.  See attached screenshot.

We don't expect to see multiple entries for the same URL.  Any ideas why 
this is happening?

Re: Incnosistency in quality score between API v210605 and v201607

[Oliver]

Thanet, are you saying that any keyword that hasn't had its quality score 
change in 90 days will now have "--" quality score in the API?  

What if this keyword is active and generating traffic?  

I was under the impression that the "--" quality score was for inactive 
keywords only.

Re: CustomerService in v201607

[Oliver]

Further to my last post pointing to what the documentation said, we tested 
this functionality and it seems the documentation is not correct.

Without setting the *clientCustomerId,* we still get back one entry only 
when calling the getCustomers() method for a Manager account.  It seems the 
new getCustomers() method work exactly the same as the old get() method.

Can you please clarify if we missed something? or what exactly has changed?

Oliver

Re: CustomerService in v201607

[Oliver]

Hi Shwetha,

The documentation says something different from what you mentioned.  It 
says in this page: 
 
https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/accounts-overview#customerservice

*In v201605 and earlier, if no clientCustomerId is specified, then the 
response will contain a single entry for the authenticated account. You 
must specify a clientCustomerId when authenticating as a manager account to 
obtain info for a specific account.*


*Starting with v201607, if no clientCustomerId is specified, then the 
response will contain multiple entries if more than one account is directly 
accessible by the authenticated account. If you only want results for a 
single account, you must specify the clientCustomerId in your request.*


So my question is, if we don't specify a customerId (which we can't if we 
just authenticated a new user and we don't know his Id), then we will get 
back multiple accounts.  How do we know which account is the root account?


Oliver

Re: Getting CANNOT_USE_AD_SUBCLASS_FOR_OPERATOR error after moving to 201605

I'm using the *TextAd *object.

As I said, we've been running this code for years without any problems. 
 There is nothing in the release notes about any change to how Ad statuses 
are changed.

CustomerService in v201607

[Oliver]

The latest API version v201607 removed the CustomerService.get() method and 
replaced it with getCustomers().

I'm a bit puzzled by how one can achieve the same functionality.

If an account is authenticated but no customerId is set (because it's 
unknown), the old get() method used to return the root account details 
(i.e. account at top of hierarchy).  The new method will return all the 
accounts that are accessible by the authenticated user.  So how would one 
know what the root MCC is in this case?

Getting CANNOT_USE_AD_SUBCLASS_FOR_OPERATOR error after moving to 201605

[Oliver]

We upgraded from 201601 to 201605 and started getting 
*CANNOT_USE_AD_SUBCLASS_FOR_OPERATOR* error when pausing Ads.

The documentation says this happens when we try to modify anything in the 
Ad other than its status:
https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/common-errors#AdError.CANNOT_USE_AD_SUBCLASS_FOR_OPERATOR

However, we're attempting to modify only the status.

Our code worked for years with previous API versions.

We're using the Java lib.

Any ideas what is going on?

Oliver
