Single Product Targets for PLA's - Not Working

I posted this as well on the adwords forum but I will post it here as I am sure it is a situation someone using the API to automate product level adgroups for PLA's would come across. We have setup a campaign which matches targets to adgroups on the adwords_grouping parameter. We have

Re: Regarding api units for ReportDefinitionService and adhoc reports

The blog says that the reporting is free providing you use the new ad hoc reporting method. http://code.google.com/apis/adwords/docs/reportingtopics.html#adhoc The current ones will be changed 400 credits when you first create them and no additional change when you reuse the same report

Re: OAuth - didn't see it mentioned so I thought I'd ask

Are we able to get a code sample using OAuth? As I see from the Java code these reports are free of charge correct? Only key thing I can think of not supported that would be great after this is being able to read the account currency and timezone in the ServicedAccountService. --

Daily reporting - Best time to execute.

I remember reading an article or blog post on here about when the best time is to execute say a report on yesterdays stats to ensure they are all fully up to date. Just wondering what the link was if you know of the one I'm talking about. Thanks. --

Re: Timezone changes?

Yeah, second this request, one of the only a small amount of things the old v13 supports which haven't been picked up by the new API's. -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog and discussion group: http://adwordsapi.blogspot.com

Re: Client Authentication, What would you suggest?

Any plans to add the authorization process to the API? Really we would just be using it as a stop gap until report downloads are available through OAuth as the OAuth system is a lot nicer to use and much better for this authorization stuff. Looks like the manual authorization might be the best

Client Authentication, What would you suggest?

Currently with OAuth not being a complete option and it being seemly impossible to automatically send out a request to join an MCC (although I know some services do it so any pointers in the right direction on how to do this would be great) it seems the only option for something automated is to

Re: OAuth support - please finish the job

I second this, I just don't get why all the effort was gone to allow OAuth access to pretty much everything else in the API then to have probably over half the use cases requiring an additional authentication method. I went down the OAuth path well over 6 months ago thinking that by the time

ServicedAccountService account currency and timezone

I am a little confused with the currency and timezone fields that have been added into accounts retrieved with the ServicedAccountService. Are these fields only available to write to during account creation and not to be read back out? If this is the case when can we expect to be able to

Currently it is 400 to make a report definition, which you get an id returned to you, calling this id gives no additional cost, so if you set up a report with a non static timescale it's essentially free ongoing. -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog and

Re: KeywordText returned as Keyword in Keyword Performance Report

I understand a certain level of diligence should be taken by developers, IE it's a wakeup call for me to make sure the reports are sound before going live with the reporting code. I think though unless there is a good reason for it developers would much rather a bad name that doesn't fit the

Reports Field Name Changes

Is there any good reason why the field names in the reports change? For example keywordText seems to have changed to keyword. There have been a long line of these changes it seems, is there somewhere where they are documented or should we be writing code to detect this happening randomly? --

Re: Automated Rules In Adwords API

It does, I guess I was thinking it terms of using it to simplify in terms of how regular certain parameters are checked and use less credits for when a form of automation it supports is required. Not essential of course as it's features can be replicated just thought better design may be to

Occasional Cost Error

In v13 all money values needed to be divided by 1 million if I remember correctly. For some reason now it appears the occasional report in v201008 is returned in this way(* 100 as far as I can tell) while the majority are reporting actual money values, any reason why this would happen? --

Getting destination url and max cpc at the ad group level

Can't work how I would go about getting each ad group in a campaign's max cpc and destination URL. The reason I need this is what I'm making tracks the ad groups default max cpc and destination URL and updates the keywords that use the defaults in the ad group accordingly. From the docs it seems
