Re: Clarity on AdWords API Use

[Brett Baggott]

There are provisions for allowing others access to your API credentials but 
this is usually done for employees of your company. It doesn't sound like 
that's what's going on here. I think your instincts on this are right.

Having said that, were he an employee or contractor, and I wanted to do 
what you are talking about, it can be done and still limit access. I 
wouldn't do it for anyone that wasn't in my direct employ, but here's an 
example of a good way to limit access:

Anash Oommen at PubCon 2015

[Brett Baggott]

I was resolved to the fact that I'd miss this year's PubCon due to family 
obligations. However, now that I know Anash Oommen himself is going to be 
there, I'm really bummed. Those that can go should definitely take 
advantage. PubCon is the only "gotta go if possible" conference for me. 
Full disclosure, I have no association with PubCon except for attending 
about 6 of the years so far.

If you can, go.

Re: How to get Keyword-level Biddingstrategies and MaxCPC with Keyword Performance Report

Duplicate in case you didn't get the other response:

Josh, disregard my earlier post. I just realized that I was using the 
Criteria Performance Report, which does not include any of the

Re: How to get Keyword-level Biddingstrategies and MaxCPC with Keyword Performance Report

[Brett Baggott]

Josh, I happened to be doing some coding on the Keyword Performance Report 
while reading this post and I attempted to get exactly the information 
requested by Orangevn, thinking it wouldn't be a big deal. I was surprised 
to find that BiddingStrategyId, BiddingStrategyName, 
and BiddingStrategyType, all returned Invalid Field errors for the keywords 
I was requesting. The CpcBidSource for all of these is returned as "ad 
group criteria" or "ad groups". So apparently, at least for the C# client 
code, these fields are invalid selectors in some cases. Yet in the two 
examples you give above, at least one of the BiddingStrategy fields are 
valid, whereas in my testing, none of those fields are valid.

I'm assuming I will get the details of the BiddingStrategry from the 
criterion specified (ad group in this case), however, I'm surprised that 
these fields are invalid as selectors, even though they would be empty.

Re: Simple Questions about the OAuth2 access_token and Redirect URI

[Brett Baggott]

Alan, here's a link to Google's official explanation of the different types 
of 
projects. 
I suggest that, instead of thinking of these different project types in 
relation to what _your_ application is, think of them in relation to how 
each is different. Here's my lame attempt at describing each of these 
projects in my own words:

Web Application - This is for interactive applications that are going to 
allow any user (basically) to go through your application and authorize you 
to access their account via API and then your application will do whatever 
it is designed to do, most likely interactively.
Installed Application - This is for an application that contains 
functionality that uses the Adwords API but authorization is most likely a 
one-time thing (at least in the way I think of it), probably accessing a 
specific account(s), and where authorization (or more likely refreshing of 
authorization) pretty much happens in the background.
Service Application - This is the same as the Installed Application except 
it's meant to be run on a server and therefore even less user interaction. 
There's actually some assumed authorization processes that are pretty 
different from the Installed Application but for the purposes of my example 
here, is beyond the scope of discussion.

So really I think of these different project types in terms of _how_ I'm 
going to handle authorization (i.e. interactively or "built-in").

As far as your question about the Redirect URI, think of it like the PayPal 
process. You click on a PayPal button on a website, you're taken to PayPal 
to sign in and authorize the payment, and then you are redirected at some 
point back to the vendors site so he can say Thank You. Well, in the same 
way you'd tell PayPal "here's the URI I want you to redirect to after the 
payment is processed" (i.e. my thank you page), you tell the Auth API where 
you want to redirect to after the user has authorized you to access their 
account.

Hope that helps,
~Brett

Re: Google APIs Console. Web or Installed applications?

[Brett Baggott]

Alan, I suggest that, at least for your testing, you specify an "Installed" 
application, even though you may be developing a web application. The 
reason I suggest this is because you're going through the 
GetRefreshToken.php process which is intended to provide you with an Access 
Token that has already been approved (via the web as that's a part of the 
GetRefreshToken.php process) and can then be perpetually refreshed as you 
test, essentially making Auth a non-issue from that point forward (i.e. the 
system takes a look at your Refresh Token, sees that it is valid, refreshes 
it, and "auth" is done).

Now, if you are building a fully functional website that will have an 
authorization process "fronted" by your web application, then you can 
choose "Web" application and build all the web functionality necessary to 
do the auth handshake based on input from your user. However, most people 
want to get started programming against the Adwords API, such as running 
GetCampaigns to get a list of campaigns for an account, so that they can 
make sure they understand the programming necessary for the Adwords API 
_before_ they build all the website functionality necessary just to get 
past the auth process. In fact, that's exactly what I'm doing. At some 
point, I will have to build all the web pages necessary to allow a user to 
authorize my web application to access their Adwords account and at that 
time, I will change over to a "Web" application project. But right now, I 
want to focus on the code that interacts with the API because if I can't 
get that going, I'm not going to need all the auth web pages.

I hope that's clear.

I don't know why you are still having issues with "access token required" 
but I'm going to address that in your other thread.

Re: Trying to get clientCustomerId

[Brett Baggott]

Yes, it is true. At least that is the error I got when I tried to access

Re: Is IN operator working like an OR for the status field?

[Brett Baggott]

Stephane, try this instead:

Predicate predicate = new Predicate();
predicate.field = "Status";
predicate.@operator = PredicateOperator.IN;
predicate.values = new string[] {"ACTIVE", "PAUSED"};
selector.predicates = new Predicate[] {predicate};


I think the problem might be in how you have delimited your "ACTIVE, 
PAUSED" values as one value.

Re: Global Average Position for Filtered Campaign Report

[Brett Baggott]

Stephane, if I understand you correctly, you're saying that when looking at 
your Adwords user interface, you can filter campaigns a certain way and 
when you do, you will see a "total filtered average position" represented 
as one number at the bottom of your filtered list of campaigns. However, 
when you try to run a Campaign Performance Report using the Adwords AP, 
using similar filters/predicatesI, it only shows you an average position 
per campaign without showing you an overall "total filtered average 
position"?

If I understand you correctly, I don't think you are going to find an exact 
match for that "total filtered average position" you see on the Adwords 
user interface from anything the Adwords API can provide. I absolutely 
_hate_ it when someone answers my questions by telling me I don't need what 
I'm asking for, but, I'm still going to say it, I don't think you need what 
you're asking for. If you read that article, even the per campaign average 
position can be very misleading. If you are basing decisions on some 
further "average of averages", I would think you're headed in the wrong 
direction.

I may have completely misunderstood what you're asking, and if so, my 
apologies. Also, please forgive me in advance for telling you that you 
don't need what you seem to be asking for. I really do hate it when people 
tell me that. But please, take the time to read that article.

I think this article will help:

I think the problem here is that you are assuming that "sum all the above

Re: Generate URL pointing to Adwords user interface

[Brett Baggott]

I've just looked all through the Adwords API reference and I don't see any 
support for this type of information. I've looked at the Adwords user 
interface and I don't see any "hackable" URL's (for example, when you click 
on an Ad Group, it doesn't go to a URL with a parameter for AdGroupId=123. 
Therefore, I don't think you can use information you can obtain _from_ the 
Adwords API in order to do this either. Or at least it's not easily 
accomplished nor evidently provided for in the API.

I'm not saying it's impossible though, I'm saying I don't see any obvious 
support for doing what you want in the Adwords API.

Good luck,
~Brett

Re: Creating site links with description

I just modified the .NET Client Library example to include support for Line

I don't think they have added support for Line 2 and Line 3 into the API

Re: Completed OAuth2 setup but still being asked for email and password pair

[Brett Baggott]

Are you sure your Refresh Token is still in the auth.ini file and that it's 
valid? Dig into the OAuth2Handler.php and you'll see the flow it expects. 

I still suggest you turn on logging and see if the logging sheds some light 
on it. What you're seeing now is just the default OAuth2Exception message 
and maybe the SOAP messages will have better debug info.

Re: Completed OAuth2 setup but still being asked for email and password pair

[Brett Baggott]

Alan, I'm not a PHP dev but I've taken a look at the PHP Client Library and 
it _seems_ you've gone through the right steps. I can't imagine why you'd 
get the email null error using OAuth2 verification if you've gone through 
the steps to get a valid refresh token. Maybe this would happen if the 
email address for your Application associated with the refresh token was 
blank but that couldn't be the case.

Anyway, the best advice I can offer you is to turn on logging in your 
settings.ini file and see if the log file doesn't give you a better idea of 
what and where it's breaking. It's helped me solve seemingly unsolvable 
problems.

Hope this helps,
~Brett

Re: Get list of all clients

[Brett Baggott]

I'm using OAuth2 authorization so I'm not 100% sure this will work for you 
but I think you need to drop the line about the 
customerService.RequestHeader and set the Client ID for the account you 
want to get the account list for by using:

config.ClientCustomerId = "111-222-"

I just tried the ManagedCustomerService example code that I think you are 
working from and did the above and it listed all my accounts attached to my 
MCC which was the ClientCustomerId I used as above.

Hope this helps,
~Brett

I'm going to answer my own question because I just stumbled upon the 
CustomerSyncService<https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201306/CustomerSyncService>
 that 
seems to have been made for just the sort of thing I'm trying to do. I 
guess the idea here is to start with a complete account fleshed out in 
local data as of a certain DateTime and then poll for changes as of the 
last time you polled for changes. I'm going to work this into my account 
syncing workflow and see how it goes.

Now, can I give myself points for answering my own question :)
