Hi,
To get attribute information you can either use the object-specific
services such as CampaignService
https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201406/CampaignService
, AdGroupService
https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201406/AdGroupService,
etc., or use reports. Reporting is often preferable for the reasons
outlined in our Structure Reports guide
https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/structure-reports.
Fields labeled as *Attribute* always show the *current* value of the
field -- please see the descriptions of the columns after the list of
reports on our Report Types page
https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/reports.
To determine when attributes of an account have changed, you can use the
CustomerSyncService
https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201406/CustomerSyncService.
This will give you the IDs of changed objects for a given time frame, but
not the changed values. If you need the history of values on your objects,
you will have to utilize the CustomerSyncService
https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201406/CustomerSyncService
in
conjunction with the other services and store the history of values in a
database on your side.
Cheers,
Josh, AdWords API Team

Greetings,
Using Performance reports as listed in https://developers.google.
com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/reports the only way to download attribute
data for Adwords entites (Account, Campaign, Adgroup etc)? In other words
to get attribute/structural data is specifying the performance reports of
your choice (say CAMPAIGN_PERFORMANCE_REPORT) and fields of behavior
'Attribute' (say ExternalCustomerId,CampaignId,CampaignName,Amount,Status)
the right way to go about it?
When we download only attribute values through performance reports, are
the attribute values always what they are at the time of download or we can
request for attribute values back in time?
How can we know through API the time at which the attribute value (eg
Amount, Status) changed for some entity (eg Campaign)?
Thanks!
Anurag
