Without using reports you will have to make api calls to the services for each entity you wish to pull data for.
If you want data at the keyword level, you will need to use the AdGroupCriterionService. If you want data at the adgroup level, you will need the AdGroupService. And so on, it really depends on what specific level of data you want. It is much more cost effective to get data from the report service since otherwise you will be paying units per entity. Getting data through the AdGroupCriterionService for 1,000 keywords will cost you 1 unit per keyword, thats 1,000 units for getting all your keyword data just one time. You can get the same data as many times as you would like using the report service for a one time charge of 400 units to define the report. This report definition can then be used as many times as you wish at no charge. To get the data without using reports, you just have to specify the individual stats fields you want in your selector and make a get request to the appropriate service. Here is an example of how selectors are used in php: http://code.google.com/apis/adwords/docs/selectorguide.html I am not a php developer so can really only offer AdWords API specific questions. Maybe there is someone else on here that could be more helpful. -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ 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.
