Hi Nikisha,

Thanks for the feedback.

However, there are still some critical problems:

In a few days (30th September) you will remove the average position in the 
geo reports (and others). It is supposed that it will be replaced with new 
metrics, like absolute top impression percentage and search absolute top 
impression share. However, in the link you provide for geo reports via 
AdWords API, it seems that those new metrics (absolute top impression 
percentage and search absolute top impression share) are not accesible. I 
can see them on the web UI but they are not visible via API. Can you 
confirm that please?

I thought they could be implemented in the newest Google Ads API but 
unfortunately you are confirming that that data can not be pulled.

The point is that in several places you are removing in a few days the 
average position metric (geo performance, keywords performance) but you are 
not providing accesors to the new substitutive performance metrics (top 
impression percentage and search absolute top impression share). Is that 
true? If so, I think this is a terrible downgrade in your application. 
During years I have accessed average position in geo and keywords 
performance reports via Google Ads Scripts. But now, you are removing 
average position, and the new metrics on geo and keywords performance 
reports are not accesible neither via Google Ads Scripts (getStatsFor) nor 
Google Ads API nor AdWords API. What a disaster! Was that on purpose (I 
can't imagine the reason why) or has it been unintentional?

Please check this because if average position is removed without access to 
the new metrics via getStatsFor in Google Ads Scripts (or equivalents in 
Google Ads API or AdWords API), it could be justified to delay that removal 
until the new metrics are implemented. Otherwise, you are causing a big big 
big downgrade on your application.

Hope you can reconsider this.

Thanks,

David
