Adwords API VS Google ads API

[Somnath Jadhav]

Hi Team,

We are in the process of creating a platform which will fetch the different data from google ads account. We have some doubts to which we would like your help. Our doubts are:

1. Which is better Adwords API or Google Ads API Beta?

2. Is Google Ads API Beta going to create any problems in the future if we create our application based on this API ?

3. Which version should we use for rest interface of Google ADS API ?

Regards,

Hi Somnath,

Thank you for reaching out to us. I see you have several questions on whether to use Google Ads API or AdWords API. Throughout the remainder of the Beta, the AdWords API will continue to be the primary API for programmatically accessing and managing Google Ads campaigns. When deciding whether to use the Google Ads API Beta to run production systems, please keep in mind that we may release updates in preparation for general availability. As a reminder, changes will be released in new versions of the Google Ads API Beta. They will not affect your existing code unless announced otherwise on this blog. More details in this blog post. Google Ads API and AdWords API otherwise, should achieve the same result. As for the version to use for Google Ads API, we recommend you use the most current version of Google Ads API. Let me know if you have further questions.

Thank you,

Bryan Li Google Ads API Team
