HI Jeff. Here's another one for you. URL: https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/ReportDownload?t=AAAAACOvQ1YAAAEeA0ykEQEAAAACC5-26QMEfNNzBwREY2ZdPse-m-pr5a3E
ReportID: 598688598 And a bit of our log: 1204-133949 S Google.pm/412 Creative Report version: Google API v12 1204-133950 S Base.pm/1404 Creating Service ReportService 1204-133950 S Base.pm/1620 Checking the report status for report 598688598 1204-133950 S Base.pm/1624 Waiting 10 seconds.. 1204-134000 S Base.pm/1630 Current status for report 598688598 is Completed 1204-134000 S Base.pm/1634 Success: finished report(598688598) 1204-134000 S Base.pm/1545 Doing a file download from URL 1204-134019 S Base.pm/1716 Download URL https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/ReportDownload?t=AAAAACOvQ1YAAAEeA0ykEQEAAAACC5-26QMEfNNzBwREY2ZdPse-m-pr5a3E to file /tmp/IgFStFB0HF/BdJGnNUukf.zip successful! 1204-134019 E se_download.pl/53 ERROR IN SE Download for: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ERROR = no element found at line 1, column 0, byte 0: D ^ at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3/i686-linux/XML/Parser.pm line 187 As you can see, we only waited 10 seconds until checking that the report was complete, and it was at this point ( we got a url ) so we downloaded it. It again was a valid zip file, but when unpacked the report was a zero-byte file. I logged into the web ui and found the report id, and when I clicked on it, I got a single row of zeros. What is the behaviour in this case? Should we expect a report structure, but with no data? Or does the report structure only get output upon the 1st row of data? Thanks.
