Hi Chirag,

I once replied to Mark privately, but it seems I forgot to relay 
information here as well.
To exclude *automatic placements, *please do as follows:

Add a NegativeAdGroupCriterion 

 to 
a certain ad group, setting its Criterion.Type 

 to 
*PLACEMENT.*Then, set its url 

 to 
the same one you would like to exclude (the original *automatic placement* of 
your interest).
Finally, use AdGroupCriterionService to execute an ADD operation of the 
*AdGroupCriterion*.
Note that in this way, the *automatic placements *will be changed to 
*managed* one.

To get *automatic placements*, please run 
AUTOMATIC_PLACEMENTS_PERFORMANCE_REPORT 

.

Best,
Thanet, AdWords API Team

Re: Placement Performance Report - ID field null

2015-07-10 Thread Thanet Knack Praneenararat (AdWords API Team)

Hello Mark,

AdWords script is not my expertise but I'm asking my colleagues for you.
My guess is that it might be not so different between the script and the
API.

You may get 0 as an ID if you call getId() of
https://developers.google.com/adwords/scripts/docs/reference/adwordsapp/adwordsapp_placement#getId_0
AdWordApp.Placement
https://developers.google.com/adwords/scripts/docs/reference/adwordsapp/adwordsapp_placement#getId_0
.

By the way, as you may know, you can use Automatic Placements Performance
Report
https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/reports/automatic-placements-performance-report
to
get only rows for *automatic placements*.

Cheers,

HiThanet,

I had a follow-up question.

As you have mentioned in the thread below -

*'But possibly they are not returned by Selector due to the fact that they
are not supposed to be added/deleted by users at first place.'*

*A user can 'Exclude' automatic placements* from the Ad Words user
interface as shown below. So, Automatic placements are actionable by an
user. The only difference is that we want to perform the same action using
an API call instead.

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-A_DKXzoJOr4/VZ_v02bsJ1I/AAM/jmYe6Vzvghc/s1600/screenshot.jpg

We will not be adding any new placements. Just excluding them using an API
call.

Let us know if we have any options to just do the *exclude action using API
call*.

Thanks for all your help.

Hey Folks,

In the Placement Performance Report, I'm observing a large

I'm not seeing in the documentation why that would be. Is there a
segmentation that could cause this result?

I still think that you should ignore those placements without IDs or
not offer them to your users.
Originally, they are *automatic* placements (i.e., you or your user
haven't created them), not the *managed* placements that you can add

If you still would like to tweak around them, the best possible way
might be using their descriptions instead of IDs.

Re: Placement Performance Report - ID field null

2015-07-06 Thread Thanet Knack Praneenararat (AdWords API Team)

Hi Mark,

I'm not sure I understand your use case correctly.
Why would this mechanism (returning null when the placement is automatic 
one) is problematic to you?

That is just one of other possible ways (e.g., returning an arbitrary 
constant value) to show that a certain row is of automatic, not the one you 
have manually specified.
Could you please tell me what you are trying to achieve so I can help you 
appropriately?

Cheers,
Thanet, AdWords API Team

 Hey Thanet,

 That agrees with what we've observed, but is there a technical reason?  It 
 seems to also be the case when I pull the Placement through the 
 AdGroupCriterionService.

 Can you suggest an alternative method for getting the ID?

 Regards,
 Mark

 Hey Folks,

 In the Placement Performance Report, I'm observing a large quantity of

 seeing in the documentation why that would be.  Is there a segmentation 
 that could cause this result?

 Thanks,

Re: Placement Performance Report - ID field null

2015-07-06 Thread Mark R



Hey Thanet,

 

We use an internal tool for managing some of our Criterion, and our team 
would like the capability to bid/pause/remove Placements through this tool.

 

Without an ID they would need to individually select each Placement through 
the AdWords webpage they wish to manipulate, rather than use API calls.

 

Thanks,
Mark
