There is a bit of a misunderstanding here. The ReportDefinitionService is read only and is no longer directly used to download reports.
At this point it serves two purposes: API users who may have defined reports previously can still get their report definitions out of the service. (this is probably useful for Alistair and others to get stored report definitions back) API users can also retrieve a list of supported fields dynamically for each report type through the service. (this is useful for code generation of enumerations of fields and to detect changes in available fields) The PHP example code is only loading the service so that the required classes are available(as the comment on line 39 suggests). These classes allow you to build up your report definition in an object oriented fashion instead of piecing together a soap request or your own class and make some constants available for building the URL. If you view the ReportUtils.php class, it is not actually using the service to download the report, but is instead using CurlUtils to download the report from the AdHoc reporting URL. Hope this clears things up. -- -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog and discussion group: http://adwordsapi.blogspot.com http://groups.google.com/group/adwords-api =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.
