v13.ReportService keeps throwing InternalError since yesterday for some accounts
Hi there, Since yesterday, we keep getting the response "An internal error has occurred. Please retry your request." for some of the AdWords accounts that we are processing. I have copied the log for one such call below. It doesn't seem to matter for what period I try to retrieve the data in the report. For other accounts, everything seems to work fine. Any ideas as to how to fix or work around this issue? Right now we are kind of stuck here. Thanks, T.J. -BEGIN API CALL- Request --- POST /api/adwords/v13/ReportService User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; MS Web Services Client Protocol 2.0.50727.4952) VsDebuggerCausalityData: uIDPoxnDkO1lkO5Oh +nvjcp39cEAqwmAfljSXUKVL0v0Ofkqu7AHL8CXBR1Irz9N229jt7MACQAA Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8 SOAPAction: "" Host: adwords.google.com Content-Length: 2345 Expect: 100-continue http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/ XMLSchema">l6wwhttps://adwords.google.com/ api/adwords/v13">***-***-https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v13";>zEZwhttps://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/ v13">*...@***.***https://adwords.google.com/ api/adwords/v13">***2011-01-07Creative Structure Report2010-01-08EnabledCreativeActiveCreativeIdAdGroupAdGroupIdAdGroupMaxContentCpcAdGroupMaxCpcAdGroupMaxCpmAdGroupSiteMaxCpcAdGroupStatusAdGroupTargetCpaAdStatusCampaignCampaignIdCampaignStatusCreativeDestUrlCreativeTypeDailyBudgetDescriptionLine1DescriptionLine2DescriptionLine3ImageAdNameImageHostingKeyPhoneNoVisibleUrlStructure Response X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block Transfer-Encoding: chunked Cache-Control: private, max-age=0 Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8 Date: Sat, 08 Jan 2011 17:34:55 GMT Expires: Sat, 08 Jan 2011 17:34:55 GMT Server: GSE http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/ envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";> http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/actor/ next" soapenv:mustUnderstand="0" xmlns="https://adwords.google.com/api/ adwords/v13">386 http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/actor/ next" soapenv:mustUnderstand="0" xmlns="https://adwords.google.com/api/ adwords/v13">0 http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/actor/next"; soapenv:mustUnderstand="0" xmlns="https://adwords.google.com/api/ adwords/v13">0 http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/actor/ next" soapenv:mustUnderstand="0" xmlns="https://adwords.google.com/api/ adwords/v13">dcf105d4d513b02adb6f0a4bde569797 soapenv:Server.generalException An internal error has occurred.

Which service is better to track adwords conversions on my CRM
Hi, could someone please tell me if there is any specific service that can help me track any single AdWords conversion on my CRM. My objective is that as soon as I create a lead via AdWords, my CRM notes that it is coming from this channel and from then on I simply check my CRM to know how many sales and their value is coming from AdWords in a given date range. Thanks in advance.

Re: Report using days in a month
Hi, You could run an Ad performance report with a custom start date and end date, and request Date as an additional column. You could then convert Date column value into Day, based on the start date. See the following code examples and links for more details: How to add a report definition: http://code.google.com/p/google-api-adwords-dotnet/source/browse/branches/v11.3/examples/csharp/v201008/AddKeywordsPerformanceReportDefinition.cs?r=140 Downloading a report: http://code.google.com/p/google-api-adwords-dotnet/source/browse/branches/v11.3/examples/csharp/v201008/DownloadReport.cs?r=140 Report aggregation: http://code.google.com/apis/adwords/docs/reportguide.html Cheers, Anash P.

Re: It's possible to Edit an Text AD ?
Hi Ramesh, You need to create an AdGroupAd and an Ad object within it, set the adGroupId, status and adId, and call AdGroupAdService::mutate with SET operation. See this code example for more details. http://code.google.com/p/google-api-adwords-dotnet/source/browse/branches/v11.3/examples/csharp/v201008/UpdateAd.cs?r=140 Cheers, Anash P.

Re: Formatting of CSV files returned from Keyword Performance reportservice
I should have mentioned that this is V201008 of the api. A sample file has been sent to the private API address. thanks reed -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog and discussion group: http://adwordsapi.blogspot.com http://groups.google.com/group/adwords-api =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.

Formatting of CSV files returned from Keyword Performance reportservice
I'm seeing a change in the way the CSV files coming back from the reportservice look. This is for the Keyword Performance but that doesn't mean that it might not be happening on other reports as well. It isn't happening on all of our clint accounts, and I cannot come up with a pattern. But it is causing big problems with parsing the file and appears to be a bug on the API end. In the badly formatted files, the beginning of the file looks like this: "Keyword Perf Rpt With Conversions (Jan 7, 2011) Keyword text",Day,Keyword ID,Match type,Quality score,First page CPC,Highest position,Conversion action name,Conversion tracking purpose,Conv. (many-per-click),Keyword state,Is negative,Conv. (1-per- click),Ad group,Campaign,Ad group ID,Campaign ID,Destination URL Notice where the closing double quote is on the Report Title - it is actually after the column heading for the first column of the report, which is part of the second line. This causes problems with parsing the CSV on two levels. FIrst, the end-of-line character between the title line and the column header line is inside of the double quotes, and makes the column header line look like it is not on a line of its own. Plus, even if it could figure out that the rest of that line is actually column headers, it won't see the first header (keyword) because the header is inside of the double quotes. Other files look like this: "Keyword Perf Rpt With Conversions (Dec 7, 2010)" Keyword text,Day,Keyword ID,Match type,Quality score,First page CPC,Highest position,Conversion action name,Conversion tracking purpose,Conv. (many-per-click),Keyword state,Is negative,Conv. (1-per- click),Ad group,Campaign,Ad group ID,Campaign ID,Destination URL Which are parsed just fine. This seems to have started happening with reports that were pulled on Saturday 1/8/11. I am trying to backtrack to get report and request IDs. Nothing has changed on our end in terms of the SOAP requests for defining the reports or downloading the files, and it doesn't seem to happen on all files - but I'm still trying to sort out the specifics. I will try to isolate a couple of the actual files and email them to the private API email address shortly. Is anyone else seeing this? This is a serious problem for us because we pull all of our clients' performance data via these reports. thanks! -reed -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog and discussion group: http://adwordsapi.blogspot.com http://groups.google.com/group/adwords-api =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.

ID's
Are ID's unique across all object types? So is a keyword id unique across adgroup id's, campaign id's, and ad id's?
