Re: Change History report using API?

2011-04-28 Thread woodentops
Hi - Picking up on the discussion at the start of this thread I
wondered if I could ask for a bit more info on the
CustomerSyncService?

When running the example script GetAllAccountChanges.php it returns
high level info on campaigns being created but does not appear to
report on parameter changes such as status changes and max cost per
click modifications.  Can someone confirm that this detailed info is
not visible with this service?  If it is, does anyone have any example
scripts I could look at?  If not, are there any plans to make this
change history available via the API.  It looks to me as though the
service almost gives you all of the history in the change report but
misses out some key detail.

Many Thanks,

Jaan.

Re: How can I get Search volume and Competition values or Keyword for exact Country and Language?

Hi Eric,

Just to let all know I'm now getting consistent results between API
and Keyword Tool.  The fix must be in.

Cheers,

Jaan.

Hi,

I've a similar problem to Dmitriy.  When comparing results from the
Keyword Tool and the output from the API I can get the local, global
and monthly search volumes to agree.  However, the competition index
is different between the keyword tool and the API.

To keep things simple you can reproduce my error using Dmitry's code.
Although please note, I had to comment out the line:

 $lang_target-excluded = false;

to make the code function correctly on my machine.

Running it through the Keyword tool the competitive index for
hochzeitskleid for Germany in German is 0.93 while the API returns
0.89.  The API appears to be returning the global competitive index
rather than the local area, because if you set the keyword tool to
return results for All Countries/All languages the competitive index
returned is 0.89.

Could this be a bug in the API or is there a special command to set
the locale for competitive search over and above the usual settings?

Any help appreciated.

Many Thanks.

Re: No results for some keywords

Hi,

Just to confirm calford's findings.  I've just run a test on a list of
over a few hundred keywords.  Last month (Sept 2010)  I got zero
volume for 22% of the list when running on the production
environment.  Today running the same script the volume of zero returns
has gone up to 35%.  For the few I tested in the keyword tool, volumes
were correctly returned.  Any pointers as to what is going on?

Thanks.

Jaan.
