Danial,
I noticed Google made progress with fixing DSA ads reporting in another
thread on the forum. Will a column be exposed for "Automatic" vs "Managed"
property?
In this thread it was suggested that via the following logic, Automatic vs
Managed property can be defined.
'------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
' 10-25-13 Fix for Automatic vs Managed Placements, via use of the
Id/criterionID which will be empty
' or with 3000000 when it is an automatic placement vs a managed
'------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If sColumnNames(nCount).ToLower = "criterionid" Then
If reader.GetAttribute(sColumnNames(nCount)) = "--" Or
reader.GetAttribute(sColumnNames(nCount)) = "3000000" Then
sData(nCount) = "Automatic"
Else
sData(nCount) = "Managed"
End If
End If
Have a wonderful Halloween,
DK
