The {keyword} parameter is the one you're actually bidding on that triggered the ad. If you want the exact search query typed into Google, you need to extract it from the HTTP referrer. -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog and discussion group: http://adw

Re: Does Adwords API support oAuth 2.0? (.NET)

Hi Stéphane, It currently only supports oAuth 1.0a<http://adwordsapi.blogspot.com/2011/10/adwords-api-now-fully-supports-oauth.html>, so you'll need to use a slightly different process for authenticating AdWords than Analytics. Reg

Re: Daily budget over $2000 causes odd API errror

2012-06-11 Thread Ewan Heming
I'm not sure if this is the problem, but the error mentions that your budget is too low, not too high; maybe your code isn't converting the $2000 into micros before posting to the API? Just a guess as a micro amount of 2000 is less than 1 cent, which is probably too low for a daily budget. --

I don't believe that there is any way to do that; although, I think you might be able to create an account linked to your MCC then invite your clients to access it, but the invite would need to be sent manually so I'm not sure if it would be any use to you. -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=

How long have you actually been waiting for a response? Token applications are taking a very long time to process at the moment, and I think that the ones being escalated have been waiting excessively long. While you're waiting you could try looking at the AdWords API Terms

You don't need a developer token to use the sandbox, you just need a Google account. The developer token in the sandbox is just your account email plus a chosen currency. You can find out more about using the sandbox here . -- =~=~=~=~=~

I don't work for Google, so I'm not sure about the specifics of moving tokens and free quota to another account, but it does sound like something that might be difficult. However, your token itself can be used independently of your MCC, so it can be used to access a separate account (MCC or oth

Unfortunately, the results are always zero. Random values would be a very useful feature though, especially if the ad hoc reports also returned some matching data. It's hard to know if you've match everything up correctly using the sandbox; the only way to be sure is to do live testing, which i
