Re: Is it possible to download a list of clicks using the API?
Hmm having looked over that, it looks like we have that sort of system already in place. It's really individual clicks that we need to match up which is why ideally we need a list of clicks that Google say we have had so to reconcile that with our list of visits. It seems that the gclid is used in Analytics for just that purpose. Unless I've missed something in the Value Track documentation you linked to, there doesn't seem to be a way of passing a unique identifier for each individual click that we can later reconcile to ensure our recorded number of clicks match Google's number of clicks exactly so we can display the correct spend for a day overall. The gclid seems the nearest thing to what we need, the missing link being the gclid being available in the click performance report in the previous reply...

Re: ConversionOptimizerBiddingTransition
Hello, I'm facing the exact problem. The new docs do not specify an alternative to setting the explicit bids. Did you find a solution? Thank you.

Looking for a competent freelancer to develop some Adwords API code for us.
I've been trying (in vain) to find someone competent and reliable, as well as good value for money of course, to develop a pretty simple Adwords API program. I'm sure many people on here will put themselves forward which is just great. Ideally I'd like them to be able to demonstrate their abilities by also citing references from third parties.

Discrepancies between UI and API reports
Hi people. I've been fielding questions from users over discrepancies between UI and API reports. I've found this article: http://adwords.blogspot.com.au/2012/11/impression-share-reporting-changes-are.html that discusses changes that came into effect on October 1. In particular: 1) *Distinct search and display columns*. We’re adding new columns to cleanly separate search and display impression share. 2) *“Hour of day” segmentation*. Based on your feedback, we’re enabling “Hour of day” segmentation so you can evaluate how your ad coverage varies by the hour. I see these changes have *not* made it into the API report documentation, nor the API reports themselves, and hence are a source of discrepancy ( and hence source of issues for us ). Can someone please give an estimate on when this is expected to be fixed? On a similar topic, the article also states that the old impression share columns will become unavailable in February 2013. It's not clear if this affects API reports or not. Will there then be a situation where we can't even say to users stop using the new impression share metrics and use the old ones that are compatible with API reports? If not, that implies there will be a breaking change to API reports in February 2013, which I'm currently unaware of. Are there plans to deprecate v201209 in February 2013? Stability of reports is essential to tool providers, as discrepancies like this cause users to doubt solutions we build around them. -- -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ 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.
