Hello Jacob, Please find my response to your queries below for further clarification.
Yes we are doing this work against our test API account (I assume you mean the API is in test mode): By making call against the test account means you are making an API call against the accounts that are not actually serving ads. Please refer to this guide for more information related to the test accounts. However, you say 'keyword ideas might result in junk data'...does 'might' mean that we will never get a proper response for keywords in test mode? It would be good to know what to expect (and not to expect): Yes, you are right. When using the test accounts, the TargetingIdeaService will return dummy data for keyword ideas. If we always get junk back for keywords using the API in test mode...how do we test that our code is working as designed? How do we verify functionality prior to going to production? When retrieving targeting ideas against a production account, you will be able to compare the results to those from the Keyword Planner as mentioned here. Could you form up the SOAP request as you've been generous enough to do the last two times we've asked? The resource you provided are helpful, and we'll use them however our code is in go and it would be really helpful to get the properly formed SOAP if you could provide it: The SOAP request call made against the test account looks perfect. The similar SOAP request shared for investigation could be used to make calls against the production account to retrieve the targeting ideas. If you have difficulty making calls to the production account, please share the complete logs along with the client customer id privately for me to investigate further and assist you better.
