The CustomerSyncService will indeed return the same changes as in the UI, but it won't explicitly differentiate API actions from UI actions.

Unfortunately, we don't have any report or mechanism that details API usage for a given developer token. - Kevin Winter AdWords API Team On Tuesday, January 22, 2013 4:40:29 PM UTC-5, John Lister wrote: > > Forgot to add this, alternatively the CustomerSyncService can probably do > the same thing through the api... > > John > On Tuesday, 22 January 2013 21:38:37 UTC, John Lister wrote: >> >> Not sure if this will help, but you can download the change history as a >> csv file for example which should list all the operations performed against >> an account (unfortunately it looks like this has to be done for each >> account).
