I set up a project using the .NET Adwords API.
I'm querying a large number (100s of thousands) of potential search terms
for their SEARCH_VOLUME to decide which to target.
The api works as expected except for occasionally the API returns fewer
results than the number of queries I sent it.
After narrowing it down, one of the problem search terms turned out to be
simply 'amherst properties'
In this example, the API returns 0 results for the one search term.
This results in my lists being of different lengths, and I don't know which
term failed to return a value so I've been unable to identify a proper fix
for it this far.
Are there search term constraints that I don't know about, or some other
method to handle this?
I can't request one term at a time due to the sheer number of queries I'm
testing.
using System;
using Google.Api.Ads.AdWords.Lib;
using Google.Api.Ads.AdWords.v201710;
namespace WpfApp1
{
internal class MyClass
{
public MyClass()
{
AdWordsUser user = new AdWordsUser();
TargetingIdeaService targetIdeaService =
(TargetingIdeaService)user.GetService(AdWordsService.v201710.TargetingIdeaService);
TargetingIdeaSelector targetIdeaSelector = new
TargetingIdeaSelector();
targetIdeaSelector.ideaType = IdeaType.KEYWORD;
targetIdeaSelector.requestType = RequestType.STATS;
targetIdeaSelector.requestedAttributeTypes = new
AttributeType[] { AttributeType.SEARCH_VOLUME };
var adultContentSearchParameter = new
IncludeAdultContentSearchParameter();
var locationSearchParam = new LocationSearchParameter();
var searchLocation = new Location();
searchLocation.id = 2840; //United States
locationSearchParam.locations = new Location[] { searchLocation
};
targetIdeaSelector.paging = new Paging();
targetIdeaSelector.paging.numberResults = 600;
targetIdeaSelector.paging.startIndex = 0;
var relatedQuerySearchParam = new
RelatedToQuerySearchParameter();
relatedQuerySearchParam.queries = new string[] { "amherst
properties" };
targetIdeaSelector.searchParameters = new SearchParameter[] {
locationSearchParam, relatedQuerySearchParam, adultContentSearchParameter };
var targetIdeaPage = targetIdeaService.get(targetIdeaSelector);
Console.WriteLine(targetIdeaPage.totalNumEntries);
}
}
}
Thanks,
Brett
