Hi. 

Thanks for the answer.

I've requested this feature to the product team via the link you provided. 
Hopefully, if it makes sense, they will support it.

Cheers

Re: Why doesn't the Google Ads API support the "organic CTR" metric?

2023-01-11 Thread Nelson Brochado
Hi.

Thanks for the answer.

I am referring to a metric, which we could call "organic CTR", which would 
be computed as "organic clicks / organic impressions". I assume that the 
existing CTR is computed as "paid clicks / paid impressions". In fact, the 
description is

*The number of clicks your ad receives (Clicks) divided by the number of 
times your ad is shown (Impressions).*

Note that there are 2 "clicks" metrics (metrics.clicks 
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v12/paid_organic_search_term_view#metrics.clicks>
 
and metrics.organic_clicks 
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v12/paid_organic_search_term_view#metrics.organic_clicks>)
 and 
2 "impressions" metrics (metrics.impressions 
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v12/paid_organic_search_term_view#metrics.impressions>
 
and metrics.organic_impressions 
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v12/paid_organic_search_term_view#metrics.organic_impressions>).
 
So, the only CTR metric, metrics.ctr 
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v12/paid_organic_search_term_view#metrics.ctr>,
 
is computed as a function of one of the 2 pairs.

So, there is only 1 CTR metric, but there should be 2: one for Google Ads 
data and one for the organic data.

Let me know if it's still unclear.

Thanks.

Hi Nelson,


Thanks for reaching out to the Google Ads API team. I hope you are doing well 
today.

With regards to your concern about this "why doesn't the Google Ads API support 
the "organic CTR" metric?" Upon checking this paid_organic_search_term_view 
report I see that the CTR metrics are available. With this, could you please 
confirm if this CTR metrics are you referring to not yet supported in this 
paid_organic_search_term_view report?

Why doesn't the Google Ads API support the "organic CTR" metric?

2023-01-11 Thread Nelson Brochado
Hi.

I've just come across paid_organic_search_term_view 
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v12/paid_organic_search_term_view>,
 
which, at first glance, would seem to be the view I need, given that I need 
to create a report that combines paid and organic (Search Console) data. 
However, it doesn't contain some metrics or columns that I need.

Specifically, why doesn't the Google Ads API support the "*organic CTR*" 
metric? 

CTR is just clicks/impressions 
<https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/2615875>. We have both organic 
clicks 
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v12/paid_organic_search_term_view#metrics.organic_clicks>
 
and organic impressions 
<https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v12/paid_organic_search_term_view#metrics.organic_impressions>,
 
so one could easily calculate *organic CTR*, even if it was not provided by 
the Search Console API, which is not the case, because the Search Console 
API provides the CTR metric, or even though the UI doesn't seem to provide 
such a column.

Could this be supported?

Thanks.
