Is this available through the API? I couldn't see it referenced anywhere.

Remove Shared Sets

[Joe Stedman]

Hi guys,

I've removed some shared sets (negative keyword lists) using the GUI.

But whenever I use the SharedSetService to retrieve the sets they still 
appear as Enabled.

This happens when I use SharedSetService, or CampaignSharedSetService, both 
on the Ads API and AdWords API. Is there any way to only retrieve the 
enabled shared sets?

Thanks,
Joe

Re: Did Google Ads API provide access log ?

[Joe Stedman]

Not related to Google Ads specifically, but if you log into your Google 
account (the one that granted access to the 3rd party app). You can select 
'Security -> Third-party apps with account access' and revoke the access 
there.

Re: Conservative Targeting in AdWords API

[Joe Stedman]

I hate to be *that *guy but, is this still not available through the 
AdWords or Ads APIs?
I couldn't see anything in the change history but i'm kinda hoping you'd 
expose it in the new ads API at least.

 Hi there,

 Is it possible to use the API to determine of a campaign has checked

 I know that we can use the ExplorerAutoOptimizerSetting

 to find if a campaign has "aggressive targeting" set, but what about 
 conservative?

Re: Shopping campaign setup via API

[Joe Stedman]

There are a few tools out there that do this already but are built on the 
AdWords API. (I even built one myself). 
I think the Google Ads API has a few limitations. eg. I don't think it can 
subdivide by product category yet. Might be worth waiting til V2.

Re: List of campaign attributes.

[Joe Stedman]

You know what, i figured it out.
$"SELECT name,selectable,enum_values WHERE category = 'ATTRIBUTE'" gives 
you all the attributes. Then you can just include the ones with a 
ResourceName that contains "/campaign.".
There's probably a better way though.

List of campaign attributes.

[Joe Stedman]

Hi, I'm trying to get a list of attributes+metrics for the campaign 
artifact along with their enum values if applicable.
I managed to get the metrics using the GoogleAdsFieldService with this as 
the query:
"SELECT name, category, selectable, enum_values, filterable, sortable, 
selectable_with, data_type, is_repeated WHERE category IN 
('METRIC','ATTRIBUTE') AND selectable_with CONTAINS ALL ('campaign')"

This only returns the metrics, which i understand. What should I do to get 
the attributes?

Thanks,
Joe

Google Ads API Metric List

[Joe Stedman]

Hi,

With the AdWords API it's always been possible to download a csv of all the 
metrics found here: the button at the top of this page 

.
Does something similar exist for the Google Ads API? Closest thing I could 
find was this metric list here: 
https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/fields/metrics  
 but 
there's no file export.

Thanks,
Joe

Is this still possible with Ad Customizers?

FeedItemTargetService and the SET operator.

[Joe Stedman]

I'm writing a program where I need to set the campaign targeting on ad 
customizer feed items.
I'm using v201806 of the API.

I can use the ADD and REMOVE operators just fine but i get a 
operand_not_supported error if I try and SET the targeting. 
For now my workaround is to remove all the targeting and then add it all, 
but this seems a bit messy. i must be doing something wrong.

the operand i'm trying to post contains the campaignId, feedId, feedItemId 
and of course the operator. What am I missing?

Regards,
Joe

Retrieving Ad Extensions

[Joe Stedman]

Hi, 

I'm trying to get a list of all the ad extensions in an account at account 
level, campaign level and ad group level.

I've used the *CustomerExtensionSettingService *and the 
*CampaignExtensionSettingService 
*with a selector applied containing the fields: 'ExtensionType' and 
'Extensions'.
This all seems to work fine, and I can see a list of entries.
When I try and use the *AdGroupExtensionSettingService *to retrieve the 
extensions however, it does not work. Weirdly, I can see the entries exist 
as the 'totalNumEntries' property on the page is populated. However the 
'entries' property is null.



(see screenshot above of my *AdGroupExtensionSettingPage *object).


Any help would be most appreciated.


Joe

Re: Finding automated ads with awql

[Joe Stedman]

Ok I solved this, but i'll leave it up in case anybody needs it in future.
I was using this method:
public ReportUtilities(AdWordsUser user, string query, string format);

Assuming it would use the latest AdWords version, but it does not.
Once you switch to this method:
public ReportUtilities(AdWordsUser user, string reportVersion, string 
query, string format);

You can define the AdWords version you need, which seemed to fix the 
problem. It does however mean that you'll need to keep changing your 
reportVersion string every time your version gets sunset.

Finding automated ads with awql

[Joe Stedman]

Hi,

I'm using the c# library to request an awql report for automated ads in my 
account.
The Nuget package version I'm using is 22.4.0.0

When I try and request the report using this string:
"SELECT 
CreativeFinalUrls,AdGroupStatus,Status,AdGroupId,CampaignName,CampaignId,AdGroupName,HeadlinePart1,HeadlinePart2,Description
 
FROM AD_PERFORMANCE_REPORT WHERE Status != 'DISABLED' AND Automated = 
'TRUE'"
I get the error:
"Customer passed in invalid field name for a report type. (Error: 
ReportDefinitionError.INVALID_FIELD_NAME_FOR_REPORT, FieldPath: Automated, 
Trigger: )"

Is this correct? Is the AdWords Nuget package 'ReportUtilites' class 
currently using v201710 of the API?

I hope this is the right place to ask,

Thanks,
Joe

Re: Google Product Taxonomy vs Product Bidding Category

[Joe Stedman]

Hi Shwetha,

Thank you for getting back to me.
I still have a problem though, example:

I have a selection of products with the taxonomy "Hardware/Painting & Wall 
Covering Supplies/Paint"
Using the ConstantDataService, I can get category ids of 
'1689639310991627077' for Hardware and '6493303640508933718' for Wall 
Covering Supplies, and can confirm that 'Wall Covering Supplies' is indeed 
a child of 'Hardware'.
Yet when I call mutate on the adGroupCriterionService I get an error 
telling me that "Bidding categories do not form a valid path in the 
Shopping bidding category taxonomy...". Which if i'm understanding that 
correctly, is telling me that 'Wall Covering Supplies' is not a correct 
child of 'Hardware'.

Of course, this is just one example, there are far more products for some 
of my other clients that have the same problem.
If the ConstantDataService is telling me that it should be correct, I have 
no way of catching the error before i call mutate, so the entire operation 
array will fail unless I call mutate on each product individually which is 
a bad idea :)

Am I doing something wrong, is there another way to make sure my products 
have the correct taxonomy before I try to create their partitions?

Kind Regards,
Joe

Google Product Taxonomy vs Product Bidding Category

[Joe Stedman]

Hi All,

When automating the creation of shopping campaigns I noticed that the 
Google Product Categories returned by the API don't quite match up with the 
taxonomy found here:
https://www.google.com/basepages/producttype/taxonomy-with-ids.en-GB.txt
 
Causing my code to throw exceptions when it tries to create a product tree 
using the outdated taxonomy.

The exact error I receive is : "Bidding categories do not form a valid path 
in the Shopping bidding category taxonomy.."

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Joe
