Re: KeywordPlanService.GenerateHistoricalMetricsRequest only returns GLOBAL results

[synibleworkers]

This is a major issue, which needs to get fixed this week before the 
Adwords API goes completely offline, otherwise there is no way to get 
search volume stats. Whoever has power here, please let the API developers 
know how urgent this is.

Re: API Quota Reduction

[synibleworkers]

This has issue has been brought up many times and the team here is not 
understanding the issue. Why release 10.1 and allow us to generate metrics 
without a keywword plan if we can't set the language and location? The 10.1 
release was meant to solve an issue but they forgot certain functionality 
making it unusable. The ads api team needs to understand that the  
*generateKeywordHistoricalMetrics 
*HAS to be able to add location and language for it to be useful otherwise 
it's unusable. Telling us to go back and generate a keyword plan is exactly 
the reason they released 10.1 and the  *generateKeywordHistoricalMetrics *so 
we wouldn't have to do that. Can someone on the ads team please make the 
api developers aware that the 10.1 release is useless unless they allow us 
to set language and location when calling  
*generateKeywordHistoricalMetrics.*

Re: API Quota Reduction

[synibleworkers]

Yep this is brutal. I'm surprised more people aren't complaining about 
this. Quota drop from millions per day to 15000. It's now impossible to do 
real search volume research. It's also totally non-intuitive. Why do I have 
to setup a keyword plan, campaign, ad group just to check some search 
volumes. Who thought that was a good setup? It should let us check search 
volumes as we used to, then... when we've selected the keywords we want, we 
can create the keyword plan, campaign etc.. How it is now makes no sense, 
uses excessive, needless resources and doesn't allow anyway to do large 
scale keyword search volume research. It's a shame.
