Re: Wrong clic value

2010-08-20 Thread AdWords API Advisor
Hi,

If I understand you correctly you got a report for the 15th on the
16th.  If you re-run that report now, is the data the same or does it
match the UI?

Re: Negative Polygon Targeting

2010-08-20 Thread AdWords API Advisor
Hi Pete,

That's correct.  As shown in the UI there is a hierarchy of Country ->
Region -> Metro -> City.  Excluded geo targets are only possible
within this structure.  PolygonTargets and ProximityTargets can't be
excluded from other targets and can't have other targets excluded from
them.

Hi David,

I will take your concerns to the appropriate teams within Google.  No
sunset date has been announced for the v13 ReportService yet, and when
it is announced customers will have at least 4-6 months to migrate

Re: problem creating new keyword whit same text as an older, deleted keyword

2010-08-20 Thread AdWords API Advisor
Hi,

A keyword ID (criteria ID) may be the same if you deleted and then
added it again.  Additionally, the correct way to delete a keyword is
to use the REMOVE operator:

Re: LocationExtension in v201003 - can we now use iconMediaId and imageMediaId?

2010-08-20 Thread AdWords API Advisor
Hi,

The limitation in v200909 was that it wasn't possible to retrieve the
media IDs, but v201003 introduced the MediaService, which allows you
to upload images and query your existing images and retrieve their
IDs.

Re: Wrong clic value

2010-08-20 Thread Clem
Well no that's the weird part. If i look at the data (on the adwords
center)
for the 15, it shows me 13 clics, 482 impressions and a cost of 1.19
euros.

 If i look at the data (on the adwords center)
 for the 16,it shows me 15 clics, 473 impressions and a cost of 1.18
euros.

But the data i downloaded (with the api) for the 15  on the 16 gave me
14 clicks, 482 impressions and a cost of 1.21 euros

It's like it's between the 15 and the 16, knowing that today was the
16 so technically the 15 should be over and have the correct value...
That's why i'm thinking it's a time thing. It was the 16 in France but
was it the 16 where the data were downloaded from ?

Am I correct ?

Re: AdWords API Terms and Conditions

Still can't find it anywhere, I'm logged in on the Admin account and
I've looked on all the pages and then  looked on the Client area and
looked everywhere on there. So frustrating!

Re: Negative Polygon Targeting

2010-08-20 Thread Pete Lavetsky (AdWords API Guru)
Hi Eric,

Maybe there's something I'm fundamentally missing, but lets run
through the following scenario.

Let's say I wanted to exclude Philadelphia.  If I have no GeoTarget's
at all except for one CityTarget ( marked excluded ) for Philadelphia,
I'll get an error saying
TargetError.CANNOT_EXCLUDE_IF_NOT_TARGETED ... that makes sense ...
I'll also get the same error if I have a Polygon that encompasses
Philadelphia and I have the same excluded CityTarget for
Philadelphia ... so is the only way to exclude Philadelphia is if I
have either a Country, Region or Metro target that includes
Philadelphia and then creating an excluded CityTarget for
Philadelphia?

Thanks for clearing this up
Pete

Re: Retreiveing GeoTarget's Attribute

2010-08-20 Thread AdWords API Advisor
Hi Syed,

You can check the type of the objects inside the loop to handle
different type of Targets. For instance, the C# code would look
something like this:

foreach (TargetList targetList in page.entries) {
  if (targetList is GeoTargetList) {
GeoTarget[] targets = (targetList as GeoTargetList).targets;
foreach (GeoTarget geoTarget in targets) {
  if (geoTarget is CityTarget) {
  } else if (geoTarget is ProximityTarget) {
  }
}
  }
}

Re: pass a link and it returns the existing ads that contain this link?

2010-08-20 Thread AdWords API Advisor
Hi Rafael,

AdWords API doesn't allow you to filter ads by destination url. The
easiest workaround would be to run an Ad performance report to
download all the ads as a report, and then search through the urls at
your end to find the ads.

http://adwordsapi.blogspot.com/2010/07/discover-v201003-migrating-your-account.html
and 
http://adwordsaeshpi.blogspot.com/2010/07/introduction-to-reportdefinitionservice.html
are two good articles to help you get started on Reporting service.

Re: ReportDefinition

2010-08-20 Thread okiebug1...@gmail.com
Hello Eric,

I am shocked to hear this undocumented requirement for what should be
a standard performance report, Keyword performance in our case.  The
mandate to consume multiple methods just to translate report field's
ids is a tough pill to swallow.  Please let the team know this is
adding hours to the migration and causing additional web service
method consumption, not to mention supporting data base files to
handle these lookups.  All this additional work could be eliminated
via the simple addition of the fields that define an AdWords campaign,
rather than their ID's in the reports.

The date issue is unfortunate, since I like to run an EOM procedure to
clear my data warehouse and then recreate via a performance report for
the month, in order to get latent conversions.  I can then show your
customers the value or ROI in a lower cost per conversion, which
translates to higher budgets and a greater spend.  This would now
require, yet again, multiple report method consumption.

I've migrated our in-house apps going back to Google's V5 and have
always looked forward to the migration for added functionality and
knowing the Google team was moving the bar forward with each
migration.  Now this has my head spinning trying to understand how a
simple report, readily available w/n the engines portal for all to run
interactively, could be translated with in the API to multiple web
services method's consumption and additional data base tables just to
resolve the basic elements of an AdWords campaign: Campaign Name,
which isn't even returned in the Keyword report, AdGroup, Keyword and
date.  Please say it doesn't have to be this way.

How can you make my argument known and get this rectified w/o
interruption in services?  Has there been a drop dead date released
for V13, or better yet has the request for functionality for V201003
been closed.  Do I need to get our account rep involved at this time,
in order to further support our push-back against this release?

TGIF,
David

account problems with API

2010-08-20 Thread Nick Lothian
Hi,

I had a preexisting AdWords account. When I attempted to setup API
access I ran into the common problem of being unable to do it, so I
tried cancelling my AdWords account.

Now when I log in I get a message:

"This account has been canceled.
The ads are not running and all other account activity has stopped.
Any edits you make here will take effect only if you reactivate the
account. If you would like to do so, please click here."

Which is fine. However, if I click the reactivate link I get this
message:

"We apologize for the inconvenience, but we are unable to process your
request at this time. Our engineers have been notified of this problem
and will work to resolve it. Please note that using your browser's
back button in AdWords can increase the likelihood of errors. If you
think this was the cause of your error, please try again without using
the back button."

Is there anyway I can reactivate my account? Secondly, how do I set it
up for AdWords access?

Re: problem adding same negative keyword on multiple campaigns

2010-08-20 Thread Ugron
Yes, you are right: the criterion id is the same but the keyword
exists on both campaigns.
I just misunderstood the behavior of the criterions.
Thanks for your help.
