Re: Image and Location Migration in Google Ads API

Hi, I got a private reply, but it looks like Gmail may have gotten confused and split the email thread so let me reiterate the current details here. I've tried using the place_id to retrieve data from the Places web service as suggested in the Google Ads API documentation: asset.location_asset.

Re: Image and Location Migration in Google Ads API

Hi, I started using the Places API but found out recently that the Place Details request that gives the address and phone # information is not free. Is there a different request I can use to get the address informatio

Oh never mind - it looks like the SKU for if we have the place_id may be free: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/web-service/usage-and-billing#find-place-id-only And the "Find Place" request does seem to have the address information: https://developers.google.com/maps/documen

Re: Image and Location Migration in Google Ads API

Thanks! I did see the place_id before, but it looks like the Places API is a paid service: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/web-service/usage-and-billing Are we expected to pay for this data now? -Kevin On Monday, July 17, 2023 at 11:36:07 AM UTC-7 Google Ads API Forum A

Re: Image and Location Migration in Google Ads API

During the migration, if you have filled in the location feed item fields, we will calculate a Place ID and insert it in the asset. In Location assets, the fields: location_feed_item.address_line_1 location_feed_item.address_line_2 location_feed_item.business_name location_feed_item.city location

Re: Image and Location Migration in Google Ads API

For asset-based location extensions, it looks like it's preferred to use a location sync asset set, which automatically generates the corresponding assets. It looks like it is preferred to deal only in asset sets: "First, create a location sync asset set and attach it to the customer. Then, if yo

Re: Image and Location Migration in Google Ads API

One more thing - it looks like to get the location data, I need to talk to the Places API which is a paid service. Previously we could get this data for free from the Ads API - any way we can continue to get this data the same way? On Thursday, March 2, 2023 at 10:51:58 AM UTC-8 Kevin wrote: >

Re: Image and Location Migration in Google Ads API

Thanks, I'll monitor the blog. But I do think this release is a bit... rushed. If I'm understanding here: 1. the data will certainly be auto-migrated from feed->asset in early April 2. the old feed data should get cleaned up (and anyway won't reflect the actually serving assets) after the migrati

Re: Image and Location Migration in Google Ads API

Hi Kevin, Thank you for the clarification. We really understand your concern and we appreciate your patience here. As per blog post is on the migration of deprecated feed based image and location extensions to asset based extensions. I am afraid that asset based Image / location extensions are

Re: Image and Location Migration in Google Ads API

Or, if you could just point me to a document explaining how to "create a new asset image or location based on your feed" (as you mentioned in your previous reply) that might suffice as well. For Location Extensions - how do you create the corresponding Location Asset? On Friday, February 24, 20

Re: Image and Location Migration in Google Ads API

Hi (didn't see who replied this time in the response), It is fine if the auto-migration cannot be postponed, so long as there is still a way to get the migrated data. So after the auto-migration happens, how can I get that Location (and Image) Extension data from the Assets? I'm not worried abou

Re: Image and Location Migration in Google Ads API

Hi Kevin, Thank you for your reply. We really understand your concern, however, this auto-migration date can't be postponed. With this, as per our blog post "The auto-migration will not keep a mapping of feed IDs to asset IDs. If you would like to keep a record of feed IDs to asset ID mappings

Re: Image and Location Migration in Google Ads API

Hi Jinky, I understand that the Feed-based extensions are going to migrated and I believe I said so in the first email when I brought up that blog post. I think there is some miscommunication here - I am not asking whether I need to migrate or not (I know I do), I'm asking what the corresponding
