Hi Peter, I'm afraid, it is not possible to view changes specifically made from the AdWords UI and the API, using the AdWords API. The CustomerSyncService <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201710/CustomerSyncService> can be used to retrieve the changed entities for a customer account or a campaign based on the given date range as long as it is within the last 90 days. We currently do not have a report type <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/reports> that downloads the change history data. However, you could perform the CustomerSyncService.get() <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201708/CustomerSyncService#get> which returns all the changed entities in a customer account and this does not categorize between the UI and API separately. This said, I will share your interest with the rest of the team. Please keep an eye out on our blog <http://googleadsdeveloper.blogspot.com/search/label/adwords_api> for any new announcements.
