Ad Customizer with CSV/Excel

[Dave B]

Hi,

I would like to upload an Ad Customizer CSV/Excel file though my tool just like with Adwords Web UI

I've read the following on Ad Customizers (https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/ad-customizers) and would like to know other than my reading the CSV/Excel files / rows in code, getting Ad id's and pushing the data to the API as per this article, is there any easier way so I can actually send the CSV/Excel file itself.

Thanks for any advice you can give,

Dave

Hi Dave, 

I'm afraid you cannot directly use a CSV/Excel file to upload the Ad Customizer Feed through the API. You'll need to parse the CSV/Excel file and use the values to set up the feed as described here. The AddAdCustomizer Java example shows how to add an ad customizer feed and associates it with the customer and use the feed to populate dynamic data in an Ad. Example code in other languages is available here.
