Hello,

Thanks for reaching out. Video campaign creation is not supported in the Ads API. Updating is also not supported. However, video campaign reporting is available in the API.

Hello,

Thanks for answering. Can you provide us a tentative date about Video Campaign creation launch?

We are looking forward to integrate video ads creation through google api, so Is there any workarounds for this feature?

Regards,
Abbas

Team,
Is there any update or plan on API being supportive for creating Video Campaigns in v10 ?

I see i am still not able to perform mutate operation on Video Campaigns via API.

Hi there,

Thanks for the follow up on the feature request. However, unfortunately, our team doesn't have any updates regarding that feature request in order to support mutate operations on Video Campaigns via API. In the meantime, you may use Ads UI as a workaround, and keep an eye on our blog for updates when they become supported.

Hello,

The API is currently on version 11.1. There have not been any announcements regarding video campaign support. Please keep an eye on the blog for related announcements. 

Please note that Google Ads scripts supports video campaign creation.
