Hi Anthony, The managed_placement_view reports targeted placements (managed placements), whereas the group_placement_view returns automatic placements. There is no corresponding UI view for detail_placement_view, it's only meant to parallel the old deprecated UI and the deprecated URL Performance Report.
Deprecating Url Performance Report and Automatic Placements Performance Report in the AdWords API from our blog states that for Url Performance Report, use detail_placement_view in Google Ads API and for Automatic Placements Performance Report, use group_placement_view in Google Ads API. Note that there's a difference between the URL Performance Report and the detail_placement_view because Url Performance Report is a single attribution report. This means that one criterion is picked to be given credit for the click or view. In some cases, one URL may not be given credit because another criterion elsewhere was given all the credit. The whole Google Ads API does not use single attribution because we found it can be confusing, so each view will show every single criterion that was in play at the time, which gives more of an all encompassing picture of what was being used while serving. I brought to my team your request for clear documentation on these views and their correspondence to UI views. You may monitor our blog for an update.
