AdWords API Problem with KeywordToolService retuning bad data
I am running into a strange problem. I created a keyword search tool using the sample php script provided and everything seems to be working perfect so far. But I had a user that did a search for a keyword "swimming exercise programme" and the adwords API returns using: $more_specific = $variation_lists['moreSpecific']; echo 'List of popular queries with given seed has ' . count ($more_specific) . ' variation(s).' . "\n"; foreach ($more_specific as $eachOne){ echo $eachOne['text'].' - '.$eachOne['lastMonthSearchVolume'].''; } List of popular queries with given seed has 5 variation(s). s - s - 0 - 0 2 - 2 - - - I tried to do the search in Googles Adwords Keyword Tool: https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal and it returns Not enough data. >From what I could read in the API developers guide if there wasnt enough data it should return -1. I have tried it with different variations with just single words from that phrase and it works fine but not with that phrase. I was even looking at the debug information and it does have that keyword found: swimming exercise programme 0 28 -1 but doesn't seem to know that it would be one of the choices of the variations. Please Help, Thanks in advance. Tony --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.

AdWords API Re: Is there any problem with the Sandbox and ImageAd ?
Hello Qmepop, Which version of the AdWords API are you trying to use? Which client library, if any, are you using? The error message you're getting is associated with v200902 of the AdWords API. I just tried creating an image ad in the v200902 Sandbox environment and it succeeded, so I think there's some underlying issue here.

AdWords API Can QS be preserved when moving keywords to another adgroup
Hi, I read this blogs: http://www.freshthinkingbusiness.com/google-adwords-quality-score.html In paragraph 8, it says that through adwords editor you can preserve keyword quality score by cut and pasting a keyword from one adgroup to another. Is it possible to do the same through the API v13? Is the adwords editor using the same API as we are?

AdWords API Re: Problem with KeywordToolService retuning bad data
Hello Tony, I made the following SOAP request: swimming exercise programme Broad true en GB and the first item in the list of results I got back was swimming exercise programme 0 28 -1 This all seems as expected to me.

AdWords API Re: Can QS be preserved when moving keywords to another adgroup
Hello Peer, It's not possible to do a true move of existing keywords using the AdWords API (or the AdWords web interface, or any other system that I'm aware of). You can only delete existing keywords and create new ones. It's possible to automate this process in a UI so that it appears that a move is taking place, of course. The article you linked to in turn links to this AdWords Editor Help article: http://www.google.com/support/adwordseditor/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=32921 the last paragraph of which says "If you paste keywords in a new ad group, the keywords' performance statistics, such as impressions and clicks, will not be transferred to the new location." This is what you would expect if a delete and create were taking place.
