Get ImageAd MediaFile or Data with GoogleAdsService.Search

[Zhong Li]

Hi,

I am currently working on migrating our AdWords API client to GoogleAds API 
client, and I am having an issue to list all ImageAds with the 
GoogleAdsService.Search (Google Ads SearchQuery).

In the old AdWords API, the AdGroupAdService.Get() will return an ImageAd 
with Image entity 
(https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201809/AdGroupAdService.ImageAd)
 
(https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201809/AdGroupAdService.Image)
 
The Image entity contains all media file info,


With AdGroupAdService.Get(), I can get an AdGroupAd with ImageAdInfo, 
(https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/reference/rpc/v9/ImageAdInfo?hl=en)
 
and it would contains either a "media_file" filed (media file resourceName) 
or "data" field (Raw image data as bytes).

But when I try to list ImageAds with the GoogleAdsService.Search (Google 
Ads SearchQuery). I can only find those ImageAd fields available for query:

   - ad_group_ad.ad.image_ad.image_url
   - ad_group_ad.ad.image_ad.mime_type
   - ad_group_ad.ad.image_ad.name
   - ad_group_ad.ad.image_ad.pixel_height
   - ad_group_ad.ad.image_ad.pixel_width
   - ad_group_ad.ad.image_ad.preview_image_url
   - ad_group_ad.ad.image_ad.preview_pixel_height
   - ad_group_ad.ad.image_ad.preview_pixel_width


   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   
I could not get the MediaFile Resource Name of the image or the raw data. 

May I ask is there a way to list ImageAd with the media file info by search 
query? or is there another option to link them?


BTWI found for VideoAd, the search query actually provided a filed called 
"ad_group_ad.ad.video_ad.media_file" and it contains the Video Media file 
resource name. If I can get the MediaFile Resource Name as field 
"ad_group_ad.ad.image_ad.media_file", I might be able to make another query 
from media_file to get the media file detailed info.


Thanks!

Re: Can GoogleAdService Query Pagination support fetching a specific page?

[Zhong Li]

Thanks for replying. I knew the usage of  page_size but it's not convenient 
if we want to get a specific range with variable start index.

Hope Goolgle consider to add the offset support in GAQL, anyways... thanks 
again!

Can GoogleAdService Query Pagination support fetching a specific page?

[Zhong Li]

In the old AdWords API, the SelectorBuilder can specify offset/limit to 
fetch a specified page of entity 
results(https://ads-developers.googleblog.com/2014/02/adwords-api-java-selector-builder.html).
 

For example, if my campaign has 2000 ads, I want to list the ads from 501 
to 600, then I make the  SelectorBuilder builder = new SelectorBuilder() 
.fields("Id", "Name") .orderAscBy("Id") .offset(500) .limit(100) .build()

But in the GoogleAds API, the  GoogleAdsService.SearchStream would return a 
stream of all results. To get a custom page (with specified offset), we 
need to manually read the stream and handle it on client side; If we use 
GoogleAdsService.Search, then it does not support "offset" but can only 
specify the pageSize, so we still need iterate the pages and calculate the 
"desired page of results".

May I ask if there's a better way to achieve this? or any equivalent 
solution in GoogleAds API as the AdWords API's SelectorBuilder.

Thanks!

No valid AdType value return in Create AdGroupAd response

[Zhong Li]

When we create Ad through AdGroupAdService (
https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/reference/rpc/v9/AdGroupAdService),
 
the response with created AdGroupAd contains the empty value in "type" 
field (in the Ad) instead of the correct AdType.
