RE: Average Position availability in API post deprecation in 2H 2019

Hi Zweitze,

Thanks for being patient with me here. This is such a fine-grained detail
that it takes a bit of work to find the answer, and I have good news. I
have it. It looks like the data starts March 2018. I hope that helps you
with your coding logic. It was nice hearing from you again, and hopefully
I'll get to see you at another workshop some day down the road.

Take care,

I do think only Google can answer my question. Unfortunately, nobody from
Google felt obliged to answer.

Do you see any other way to retrieve this answer?
Or find a way to ask this to the product team yourself?

Our use case:
Previously AvgPos is (partly) used for qualifications of campaigns and
accounts, based on experience and -more important- years of data, in some
cases dating all the way back to 2002 (!). Anyway, we have to migrate to
the new metrics. Now we have little experience, and need as much data as
available. But it may be a bit to much for our server (and Googles servers)
to obtain all data since -say- 2014 again.

So we need a statement on the oldest date. Like
*"These metrics first became available for then-whitelisted accounts in
Liechtenstein, and you can find no older date than July 1st 2017."*


Thanks for understanding!

Like Leon we now use AveragePosition for analysis, and we consider to shift

But our goal is long term analysis.

How far in the past do these metrics go?
I know we can take an old account (say before 2005) and start reading the
metris, and determine when reasonable data appears.
But... quite often new features are rolled out on different dates, for
instance by country, or first for large accounts.

So my question is, what is the oldest date we can get reliable prominence
metrics?
For instance, 1-1-2019? Earlier?

Thanks!

Re: Average Position availability in API post deprecation in 2H 2019

2019-02-28 Thread Leon Lei
Copy and pasting the followup response from Sai below.

Concluding that Average Position metric will most likely not be available 
in the API either.

Please close thread.








*Hello Leon, Since this a product level change, the metrics may eventually 
not be available in the API as well. As recommend in the blog post 

 it 
would be ideal to start using the new metrics  Regards, Sai Teja, AdWords

Re: Average Position availability in API post deprecation in 2H 2019

2019-02-28 Thread Leon Lei
Thanks for the quick response Sai.

Yup, I'm referring to that article.

We'll switch to using the new prominence metrics for our bidding 
applications. But if we want to still get the AveragePosition metric as 
data for analysis, will it still be available in the API? I'm assuming it 
won't be but want to get confirmation.

Hello Leon,

If you are referring to this article
, about
sunsetting the average position. Wherever you are using AveragePosition
  
as

a proxy to bid to a page location, switch to using the new
SearchAbsoluteTopImpressionShare or SearchTopImpressionShare metrics.
Please Refer this blog post
  
for

more information.

Sai Teja, AdWords API Team

That post deprecation the metric will no longer be viewable in the Google
Ads UI nor can it be requested in a report from the API?
