Re: Can postal code or city/state data be gleaned from a location ID?

2018-09-14 Thread 'Luis Xander Talag (AdWords API Team)' via AdWords API and Google Ads API Forum
Hi Joshua,

AdWords API supports targeting offices/customers within a certain distance 
from your office through the proximity targeting 
 (see example 
),
 
yet choosing specific offices from those near your business is not yet 
supported. Also, the zip code is represented by the postal code in the targets 
table 
,
 
kindly filter the table by target type then choose postal code (see 
geotargets 
 for 
complete details).

Hope this helps. If I misunderstood your concern, kindly provide more 
details of your concern so I can further check.

Best regards,
Luis
AdWords API Team

Can postal code or city/state data be gleaned from a location ID?

2018-09-13 Thread Joshua Brown
I've been asked to help out on a friend's project. The client is running a 
nationwide campaign, and when a user clicks on an ad they will be sent to a 
landing page with a URL like this: 
https://URL/landing/?loc_physical_ms=1023631. 
The client wants me to take the location ID (in this case, 1023631), 
convert it to a geographical location, compare it to a provided JSON list 
of offices, and put the ID of the office closest to the location ID on the 
page.

I am new to AdWords, so I'm not sure if this can be done. I know from the 
LocationCriteria CSV file that 1023631 is Cleveland, but I don't see any 
ZIP or separate City or State information there that I could use. CSV is 
probably off the table anyway, as I don't have database access and 
converting it to JSON would yield an enormous file. If I use the API, can I 
get postal code or city/state information using the location ID?
