AdWords API Structure Report and downloading empty campaigns
I noticed that during the process of creating sturcutre report, with the following fields: ["AdGroupId", "CampaignId", "KeywordId", "Impressions", "Clicks"] campaigns that have no adgroups are not being included in the report. Is there a way to include such a data in just one report with "adgroupid" and "keywordid" fields empty or do I have to run another report just for campaigns? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.

AdWords API Re: Structure Report and downloading empty campaigns
Hello Rafal, Based on those columns, I'm guessing that you're running a Structure report with aggregationType set to "Keyword"? If that's the case then I'm not surprised that you don't see any rows in your report corresponding to campaigns that don't contain any keywords. You could try running a separate report with aggregationType set to "Campaign" and an appropriate set of columns and see if that would include all your campaigns.

AdWords API Re: Sandbox Speed
Hello Phil, You just can't make a valid performance comparison between the Sandbox and Production system. There's a completely different set of SOAP servers, the backend datastores are on a completely different scale, and the Sandbox has a number of key components mocked out.

AdWords API Re: "five sandbox client accounts are automatically created" - HOW?
Hi Jeff, Our old sandbox account started behaving the way described above. So I followed your advice and created a new one, but I still see the "internal error" message for some SOAP calls like adding a campaign. Our test scripts ran just fine last Friday, so I think something weird is going on in the sandbox. Here follows a SOAP call that works, and a second one that does not work. SOAP call that works: http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";> https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/ v13">xxx https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/ v13">client_1+synchro_t...@esearchvision.com https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/ v13">synchro_t...@esearchvision.com++eur https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/ v13">synchro_t...@esearchvision.com https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v13";>xxx https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/ v13">eSearchVision https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v13"; / > SOAP call that gives "internal error" message.: http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";> https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/ v13">xxx https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/ v13">client_1+synchro_t...@esearchvision.com https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/ v13">synchro_t...@esearchvision.com++eur https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/ v13">synchro_t...@esearchvision.com https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v13";>xxx https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/ v13">eSearchVision https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v13";> 1000 Daily AllPlacements 2037-12-30 true 0 310.GOOG 2009-02-02 Active Thanks --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.
