[Google API v9] How to retrieve BiddingStrategyType of AdGroup

[Alex Portnoy]

Hi,

I want to retrieve the BiddingStrategyType at the AdGroup level.

It is possible using the adgroup_perfomance_report and using the UI.

Bidding strategy type (ie Manual CPC bidding)  can be set at the adgroup level.

In the documentation of Google API v9, AdGroup entity is missing that property.

How is it possible to get it using the api and how to set it at the adgroup level?

Thank you

Hi Alex,

Thanks for reaching out. The bidding_strategy resource is an attributed resource of ad_group in the Ads API. You can use the query migration tool to translate AWQL queries to GAQL.

Hi, thank you for your answer.

I have already raise that issue regarding the GAQL. 

Now tried to retrieve this attribute using the API but same as with the GAQL it is missing at the AdGroup level. (it does work for AWQL report)

Here is the thread for the missing attribute in GAQL.

Here is the script that i run to fetch it using GAQL:

Script name : bidding_strategy_missing

CID: 1150169919

Please advise on how to get the attribute at the ad_group level using your API or GAQL .

Thanks

Hi Alex,

Thank you for the additional details.

You mentioned that "Now tried to retrieve this attribute using the API but same as with the GAQL it is missing at the AdGroup level. (it does work for AWQL report)", that said, could you provide our team the generated and complete request and response logs, with the request-id, of this particular API request that did not return the value you expected?

If you haven't yet, logging can be enabled by navigating to the Client libraries > Your client library (ex. Java) > Logging documentation, which you can access from this link.

You may then send the requested information via the Reply privately to author option. If this option is not available, you may send the details directly to our googleadsa...@google.com alias instead.
