Re: Adwords API - Automating Reporting via Excel Macro

[chris h]

Hi Ben,
There are several existing solutions for automating Excel reporting, 
including Tatvic and my company ShufflePoint. These can provide coverage 
for your reporting needs and give you some breathing room while you 
investigate using the API directly. Feel free to contact me (chris AT 
shufflepoint.com) if you'd like to try our report automation solution.

ReportDefinitionService questions, and code sample request

[chris h]

That is my interpretation of the page
http://code.google.com/apis/adwords/v2009/docs/reference/ReportDefinitionService.html

"When you send an HTTP request to this URL, the AdWords server
generates a report based on the report definition ID you specified.
This request is inherently synchronous, but most reports take only a
few seconds to generate (the request will time out after 3 minutes)."

So can we create a report definition and immediate retrieve the report
using this URL:
https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/reportdownload

Is there any complete code samples available?

Re: authentication

[chris h]

Thanks for the response.

Authentication is a problem because I don't have (and don't want to
have) the customer's AdWords credentials.

OAuth (used in all other google APIs) supports a delegated
authentication model, so customers can grant me access without having
to share credentials.

Thanks,
Chris

What is a report?

[chris h]

Or to rephrase the question, isn't a report just a specific list of
fields? I come from the Google Analytics API space where that is the
case. Why is it not the case with AdWords? I guess this related to an
earlier question of mine on this group: does the same field name in a
different report have the same meaning?  If so, then it again begs the
question: what is a report?

If a list of predicates is supplied, are the ANDed together?

Re: predicate examples

I think it would be useful to support a logical OR between predicates.
Not sure how it would be expressed using current API semantics. Am I
overlooking a way to achieve the same thing using the API is it
stands?

Error in Ad Performance Report

[chris h]

If I query requesting all fields, I get an xml load error

 'adID' is a duplicate attribute name

Re: Error in Ad Performance Report

As an experiment, I removed the field ID from the report definition,
and now get error:

!!!Unexpected exception|||1581255

Re: Error in Ad Performance Report

[chris h]

Nore Info. Putting ID field back in query, the results have:

  

  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  



So two Google API bugs here
1. duplicate column
2. cannot query without Id field

Googlers - the request fields and response columns must match!

[chris h]

I'm repeating  this post since the previous received no reply.  If for
some strange reason they cannot have the same names, at least provide
a mapping table.

Thanks Eric. That would really improve the reporting features of the
new API.

Re: report field names

[chris h]

I really think/hope that you will change this. Be consistent and
always scope the Id fields. So the campaign Id should always be send
and be returned as CampaignId. Not sometimes Id and sometimes
CampaignId and sometimes campaignID.

Please fix this stuff before bad habits get baked in.

Re: report field names

[chris h]

Along with getting the field naming consistent, I suggest to move the
field labels into the metadata (ie GetReportFields) where they belong.

Re: CAMPAIGN_NEGATIVE_KEYWORDS_PERFORMANCE_REPORT error

Hi Eric,

Ok. I had pretty recently done a getReportFields(), so I guess my
concern is how often will the supported fields change?  Will things
stablilize in the near future?

API error with report

[chris h]

I get error:

!!!Unexpected exception|||2410215

When running adgroup_performance_report with these fields:

  AverageCpc, AverageCpm, AveragePosition, Clicks, ConversionRate,
  ConversionRateManyPerClick, Cost, CostPerConversion,
  CostPerConversionManyPerClick, Conversions,
ConversionsManyPerClick,
  Ctr, Impressions, ProxyKeywordMaxCpc, ProxySiteMaxCpc,
  TargetCpa, KeywordContentMaxCpc, KeywordMaxCpc, SiteMaxCpc, MaxCpm,
  ExperimentRowStatus, EnhancedCpcEnabled, ExperimentDeltaStatus,
  ExperimentId, CampaignId, CampaignName, Id, Name, Status

Using your .NET library

There are two issues here:

1. that it errors
2. (more importantly) that it errors and returns invalid XML

If an API call has an error, it needs to do one of two things

a. return the error in XML
b. throw an exception

Re: API error with report

Note: the report succeeds if you remove ExperimentRowStatus and
ExperimentDeltaStatus.
But both of those are listed as valid fields for this report

Re: API error with report

[chris h]

Thanks for the followup.

Please consider my request to add some error checking in your API. It
would be much less burdensome on us developers if we could tell there
was an error.

In addition to the enumerated ranges, you can specify an exact date

Re: Report Definitions: Date Range Enumerations

[chris h]

You got me there. I create a new report every time I run a report. So
my reports cost ten cents each instead of a fraction of a cent (did I
do the math right?) Either way it is still such a tiny cost component
of the overall AdWords initiative that I've just dismissed it.

Field/attribute naming consistency

[chris h]

Hi,

While things have certainly improved, there are still these which are
inconsistent in that attribute name can be different for same field
name. Below are fields and attributes (attributes in parens) which are
inconsistent:

KeywordText (negativeKeyword)
KeywordText (exclusion)
KeywordText (keywordText)
Name (adGroup)
Name (campaign)
Status (adState)
Status (adGroupState)
Status (campaignState)
Status (keywordState)
Status (placementState)

It would be better (i.e. much easier for us developers) to have a
one-to-one mapping of field names to attribute names, so I would
suggest changing the field names as follows:

NegativeKeywordText (negativeKeyword)
ExclusionKeywordText (exclusion)
KeywordText (keywordText)
AdGroupName (adGroup)
CampaignName (campaign)
AdStatus (adState)
AdGroupStatus (adGroupState)
CampaignStatus (campaignState)
KeywordStatus (keywordState)
PlacementStatus (placementState)

Or changing the attributes as follows:

KeywordText (keywordText)
Name (name)
Status (status)

My preference would be that you change the attribute names.

Re: Field/attribute naming consistency

Missed these in my first analysis:

should be:

AdId (adID)
AdGroupId (adGroupID)
KeywordId (keywordID)
CampaignId (campaignID)

Or all attributes should be "ID"

Hi Eric,

I meant in the context of the AdWords API. There is no AdWords scope

The GA API has documentation on authentication

I am looking for the equivalent documentation for the AdWords API.

Re: InfoService v201109 error

Hi Eric,
Scanning back through the forum, I found this posting you had made:

"That was my mistake, I described the solution incorrectly.  The SoapHeader 
element should be in the service's namespace, but it's contents should be 
in the cm namespace."

So following that guidance, I tried:


   
  
 {0}
 ShufflePoint
  
   
   
  
 
   true
   UNIT_COUNT_FOR_CLIENTS
 
  
   


But I still get a 500 protocol error

I also tried  but got same error.

Re: OAuth 2.0 and link between MCC and new Customers Accounts

[chris h]

Hi Stamatina,
If the client account is linked to your MCC account, then you can use your 
OAuth token to a) get a list of all accounts and b) query those accounts 
via the API. The customer has already granted you access via linking so you 
don't need to have them grant via OAuth.  They could still additionally do 
an OAuth grant (anybody correct me if that's not so). Either way you use 
OAuth 2.0. I don't believe there is a non-deprecated alternative to OAuth 
2.0.

Re: AdHoc Reporting Service Errors

[chris h]

Had same problem here.  My solution was to switch to OAuth 2.0 - that is 
working for me.  So it must be something Google changed with the 
authentication.

 The error is occurring across all the Accounts we manage.

 We've not made any code changes and other API requests within the jobs

 Is there a problem with the AdHoc Reports service?

Basic vs Standard access

Kevin,
Can you elaborate? Does the limit pertain to the application or the account?

Error when calling getReportFields

[chris h]

Am migrating to v201409

Getting error:

AuthenticationError.CLIENT_CUSTOMER_ID_IS_REQUIRED
when calling getReportFields

Reading this:
https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201409/ReportDefinitionService

I find in errors section:

CLIENT_CUSTOMER_ID_IS_REQUIRED Client Customer Id is required if 
CustomerIdMode is set to CLIENT_EXTERNAL_CUSTOMER_ID. Starting version 
V201409 ClientCustomerId will be required for all requests except for 
CustomerService.get 

I can't find anything in the docs about setting CustomerIdMode. And anyway, 
I added the clientCustomerId header to the HTTP POST just like with other 
calls, but I still get the error. And finally, why does this methods 
require a Client Customer Id? Might the fields returned be different for 
different customers?

Re: Error when calling getReportFields

[chris h]

Thanks - that did it. I kept interpreting "header" as "HTTP header". 
Putting it in the SOAP header worked.
Still would be nice to eliminate the need for it when getting field 
metadata.

Re: Problem with Adwords Api .NET ClientReport

[chris h]

You could switch to using the protocol directly instead of using the client 
library. This is precisely the reason that I don't use the libraries.

Re: RE: Anyone successfully using AdWords with OAuth?

Hi Eric,

Well, I did a test using OAuth against ReportDefinitionService. I used same 
code as I use for the Google Analytics API. It puts the oauth stuff in the 
URL.  The result was a  SOAP fault with the message:
AuthenticationError.OAUTH_TOKEN_HEADER_INVALID @  
Service[ReportDefinitionService.mutate]

Any ideas?

Re: RE: Anyone successfully using AdWords with OAuth?

[chris h]

Hi Eric,

This is not an MCC situation, which is why switching to OAuth makes sense. 
We don't have have UI or API access to the customer's Adwords account. 
Instead, we are having them grant us an access token. So in this scenario, 
what information needs to be in the SOAP header? 

Is the AuthenticationError.OAUTH_TOKEN_HEADER_INVALID likely caused by a 
mismatch in the above?  Or does it mean there is a problem with how I've 
formatted the URL? Would it help if I showed what the URL looks like?

But perhaps I should have first asked if this is going to work. If I setup a 
report using OAuth, can I download the report using the non-oauth client 
library?  If not, I guess we'll have to wait until the download supports 
OAuth. When do you think the download servlet will be updated to look for 
the oauth parameters?

Thanks for all your assistance.

Chris

Re: RE: Anyone successfully using AdWords with OAuth?

[chris h]

Eric,

For the useragent, I'm assuming we can use anything - like our app name?

When using OAuth, who gets billed for the API usage?

I'll try again, and post a sanitized URL. Even though it won't serve our 
needs until the download servlet does oauth, it is still a necessary first 
step and is likely of interest to others on this forum.

Chris


Thanks,
Chris

OAuth support - please finish the job

[chris h]

The API team really needs to finish the OAuth implementation.  What is 
missing is the ability to download a report. Without this feature, us SaaS 
application developers are sort of stuck.  Can Google provide some idea as 
to when this might be completed?

We generate reports for our customers. Currently our customers need to have 
us link to their AdWords account in order  that we can use our MMC account 
to query their AdWords account.  But this approach has two big limitations. 
First, if the customer account is an MMC account, then trying to link for 
"API only" access results in the cryptic error "You don't have permission to 
perform this action".  The work-around is to have the link request for "user 
interface and API". But then one hits the second big limitation. One can 
only link to for MMC accounts this way.  Well, we have dozens of customers 
so obviously that's a bad of hurt. 

Please finish the OAuth implementation.  Have the Report Download URL 
support the presence of the OAuth credentials. 

Thanks,
Chris

Ad Performance report

[chris h]

What is the "human readable" equivalent of the "Id" field in this
report?  For campaigns, there is CampaignId and CampaignName. Likewise
for AdGroupId and AdGroupName. But it's not apparent what field give
the name of the ad - or something equivalent to the name.

Hi Kevin,

That's great news! Could you share info or a code sample on how it
works?

I'll not get too excited before I see an example. If Google doesn't
give direction, I may try some experiments next week.

Re: best method for getting customerId in v201109?

[chris h]

Hi Kevin,

I figured I'd check in on this before the Hangout tomorrow since I'll
bring this up to find out if there is any update.

Thanks,
