RE: Requests to get AdWords report time out

[Google Ads API Forum Advisor Prod]

Hi Alejandro,

Thank you for posting your concern.

Could you please confirm if you're still encountering the issue? The report 
download requests may time out on extremely large data sets. There is no 
explicit data size limit; however, due to a variety of factors, the server may 
return an error if the report is too large. If so, could you try the report 
with a shorter date range or use predicates to break up the report request into 
multiple, smaller requests. If you're still having an issue, so I can further 
investigate, could you provide the complete report definition together with the 
Client customer ID via Reply privately to author?

Requests to get AdWords report time out

[Alejandro Grinberg]

We have a recurring job that runs hourly to fetch 4/5 reports from AdWords 
for a particular account. That used to take just a few seconds, and since 
yesterday its taking forever and finally times out.
We have a 20min timeout configured, it should be more than enough but its 
still failing to retrieve the data. In some cases, after a few retries 
(with exponential backoff) and several minutes it ends successfully, but 
the overall time is sometimes more than 1 or 2 hours (taking into account 
the retries).

We were able to reproduce this behavior with a CURL (so its not something 
related with our application). Also, we have several accounts fetching 
reports daily / hourly, and this is the only one causing issues.
It seems like its not related to one particular report type.

RE: Googleads not return anything for campaign report

[Google Ads API Forum Advisor Prod]

Hello,

If you are making an API call against a Test account, you will need to set 
includeZeroImpressions to true as the test accounts do not have any metrics. 
Could you please confirm if you are receiving any errors while making the API 
call? If so, could you please share the details? If you're not receiving any 
error, could you share the report query along with the client customer Id, to 
investigate further? You can share the details privately via Reply privately to

RE: Keywords Metrics Data(impressions, click etc) with bid simulator field

[Google Ads API Forum Advisor Prod]

Hi Kuldeep,

Thank you for writing to us today. You could use the keyword_view resource to 
retrieve the keyword metrics data. Please find below the sample report query 
for reference.
"SELECT ad_group.id, ad_group_criterion.criterion_id, 
ad_group_criterion.status, ad_group_criterion.keyword.text, 
metrics.impressions, metrics.cost_micros, campaign.id FROM keyword_view WHERE 
ad_group_criterion.type = 'KEYWORD' AND segments.date BETWEEN '2019-09-08' AND 
'2019-09-20' LIMIT 100"
Also, you could use ad_group_criterion_simulation, ad_group_simulation and 
campaign_criterion_simulation resources to retrieve bid simulator data on the 
level at which you want to adjust bidding. Please refer to the Interactive 
Google Ads Query Builder to build the GAQL query for reporting via Google Ads 
API. Let us know if you have any additional concerns.

Re: Issue with adding members to the existing CrmBasedUserList using Adwords API

[Lars Hemel]

Hello Bharani,

I am receiving the UserListError.CONCRETE_TYPE_REQUIRED error, but have 
checked all resources online and cannot find where I go wrong.

I have created a CrmBasedUserList and would like to add Member of 
hashedEmail and hashedPhoneNumber. Some of the things I found online:
* The CrmBasedUserList has listType CRM_BASED so that should look good 
allthough I read online a lot about that I might be missing operand type in 
my soal call. But this is not added by default by the MutateMembersOperand 
class.
* I have updated to the latest version googleads-php-lib/43.0.0.
* I have tried changing the MutateMembersOperation order of setOperand and 
setOperator, but that did not help (nor should it be!).

This is part of my code:

*$mutMembers = new MutateMembersOperand();*
*$mutMembers->setUserListId($userListId);*

*$memberList[] = new Member($hashedEmail, $mobileId, $hashedPhoneNumber, 
$addressInfo, $userId);*

*$mutMembers->setMembersList($memberList);*
*$operations = [];*
*$operation = new MutateMembersOperation();*
*$operation->setOperand($mutMembers);*
*$operation->setOperator(Operator::ADD);*
*$operations[] = $operation;*

*$userListNew = $userListService->mutate($operations)->getValue()[0];*

And here is the resulting SOAP.

Googleads not return anything for campaign report

[biadmin biadmin]

once you create your project and do the oauth2 and have your client id, 
secret, developer token and refresh token and authorize the ads api do you 
need to do anything.
I am not getting any campaign report being return.
How do you authorize oauth2 to run campaign reports?

ROAS as a metric in Scripts

[Vas Rod]

Hello,

I am trying to run a script for bidding on keywords based on a set of rules 
from a Google Sheets spreadsheet.

One rule is based on ROAS. However, in the logs an error appears saying 
that it is invalid.

I tried CoversionValuePerCost and ConvValuePerCost, but the issue remains.

Is it possible that there is no such metric?

In these two links I did not found conversion value or ROAS to be supported 
but it strikes to me highly strange since these two metrics are very 
significant

Re: Google Ads API - MEDIA_BUNDLE

[Google Ads API Forum Advisor Prod]

Hi Omri,

Regret the delay as I was checking this internally with the team. Please note 
that Assets and Media are completely different and not related to each other in 
any way. They both store similar kinds of information, but they are not 
interchangeable, and using one in place of other will always result in blank 
data. I have raised a feature request to the team for MEDIA_BUNDLE support. 
Please keep an eye on our blog for more updates.

Re: Google Ads API - reports: locations and top impressions rate

[Zweitze]

David,

This is turning into a product question. When campaign managers (I work for 
an agency) here ask the same question, I explain the information is just 
not there. Many ask how they should maintain their fine-grained structure 
for locations or audience, I tell them to ask their Google 
representative(s) to learn about Google's priorities.

I don't think anyone on this forum can answer such questions.

 We have similar problems, in our case (using AdWords API v201809) we 
 cannot access top impression stats in reports AUDIENCE_PERFORMANCE_REPORT 
 and CAMPAIGN_LOCATION_TARGET_REPORT, although they do exist in the web 
 interface of Google Ads.
 On one thing you were wrong, in KEYWORD_PERFORMANCE_REPORT those stats 
 do exist - they are called "AbsoluteTopImpressionPercentage" and 
 "TopImpressionPercentage".

 Note I only checked AdWords API, not Ads API nor Ads Scripts.

 In our case, we prepare our users to live without those stats for a 
 while.

Re: Google Ads API - reports: locations and top impressions rate

[David García]

Thanks Zweitze, found it.

But unfortunately that report warns that the average position metric will 
disappear next week and the "Impr. (Top) %" metric, as you say, is not 
available. How does Google think that we can track the performance of the 
targeted locations that we have configured in our campaigns?

That metric (Impr. (Top) %) is available in the Geo Performance Report (via 
UI only, not APIs, any of them!!!) but you can segment only by this 
criteria: country, region, area, city and most specific target location. 
Any of this criteria matches directly the target locations that you might 
have configured in your campaigns, so it is not obvious how to track the 
performance of your campaign target locations.

I can't imagine why Google did this. In my opinion it is a big downgrade in 
geographic performance reporting, which I think is a very important topic. 
The ability to split campaigns in targeted locations becomes useless if you 
can't check the performance of those targeted locations via average 
position or Impr. (Top) % in the Campaigns Location Target Report (whether 
web UI or programatically).

David

 Hi Nikisha,

 Thanks for the feedback.

 However, there are still some critical problems:

 In a few days (30th September) you will remove the average position in 
 the geo reports (and others). It is supposed that it will be replaced with 
 new metrics, like absolute top impression percentage and search absolute 
 top impression share. However, in the link you provide for geo reports via 
 AdWords API, it seems that those new metrics (absolute top impression 
 percentage and search absolute top impression share) are not 
 accesible. I can see them on the web UI but they are not visible via API. 
 Can you confirm that please?

 I thought they could be implemented in the newest Google Ads API but 
 unfortunately you are confirming that that data can not be pulled.

 The point is that in several places you are removing in a few days the 
 average position metric (geo performance, keywords performance) but you 
 are 
 not providing accesors to the new substitutive performance metrics (top 
 impression percentage and search absolute top impression share). Is that 
 true? If so, I think this is a terrible downgrade in your application. 
 During years I have accessed average position in geo and keywords 
 performance reports via Google Ads Scripts. But now, you are removing 
 average position, and the new metrics on geo and keywords performance 
 reports are not accesible neither via Google Ads Scripts (getStatsFor) nor 
 Google Ads API nor AdWords API. What a disaster! Was that on purpose (I 
 can't imagine the reason why) or has it been unintentional?

 Please check this because if average position is removed without access 
 to the new metrics via getStatsFor in Google Ads Scripts (or equivalents 
 in 
 Google Ads API or AdWords API), it could be justified to delay that 
 removal 
 until the new metrics are implemented. Otherwise, you are causing a big

David,

To find the UI-equivalent of CAMPAIGN_LOCATION_TARGET_REPORT:
In Google Ads, the vertical bar starting with Overview, Recommendations 
etc. Item "Locations" is the one.

BTW I just checked, but in the UI nowadays I cannot find column "Impr. 
(Top) %" anymore. I am so sure it was there about a month ago...

 Hi David,

 Thank you for reaching out. Currently, it is not possible to pull the 
 data under User locations view on the Dimensions tab in UI via Google Ads 
 API. However, you could get this data using Geo Performance Report 
 
  via 
 Adwords API by modifying the predicates as mentioned in the shared guide. 
 Let us know if you need any additional information.
