Hi,

I noticed that the data freshness of the various ...impression_share 
metrics is different for shopping vs. search campaigns. While in search 
campaigns those data usually are available for yesterday, in shopping 
campaigns they usually are delayed for another day.

In the Google Ads UI, you'll see a "—", if the data is not available yet. 

In the Google Ads API on the other hand, those metrics are of the type 
"DOUBLE", hence the value of "metrics.search_budget_lost_impression_share 
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v2/metrics#metrics.search_budget_lost_impression_share>"
 
will be returned as 0.0, even if the real value is not available yet.

As a workaround to determine, if the real value of 
"metrics.search_budget_lost_impression_share" is already available, I came 
up with the idea, to check if "metrics.search_impression_share 
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v2/metrics#metrics.search_impression_share>"
 returns 
a value > 0.0. Because "metrics.search_impression_share 
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v2/metrics#metrics.search_impression_share>"
 is 
returned as 0.0 if the real value is not available yet and as some value 
between 0.0999 and 1 it it is. 

And to assume, that if metrics.search_impression_share 
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v2/metrics#metrics.search_impression_share>
 has 
a value >= 0.0999, the real value of 
metrics.search_budget_lost_impression_share 
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v2/metrics#metrics.search_budget_lost_impression_share>
 is 
already available too, even if it is still returned as 0.0.

So my question is: can I assume that 
metrics.search_budget_lost_impression_share 
and metrics.search_impression_share are always of the same data freshness 
(for the same campaign)? 

Regards
Mat
