How to add Adding Sitelinks to Campaign in Google Ads

[F B]

Hi there,

I am using the Python client library and was able to start adding campaigns to an account. However I am currently struggling with adding SiteLinks and other extensions.

I feel like one should create a Feed with Feeditems and add them to the campaign, but I am unsure how to exactly do this with the python library. Any pointers would be appreciated.

These are the relevant (I think) links that I found in the documentation:

https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/reference/rpc/google.ads.googleads.v1.enums#google.ads.googleads.v1.enums.SitelinkPlaceholderFieldEnum.SitelinkPlaceholderField

https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/reference/rpc/google.ads.googleads.v1.resources#campaignextensionsetting

Hello, 

If you're using the Google Ads API, you may use the CampaignFeedService and AdGroupFeedService and use the PlaceholderType to create the Sitelink feeds. Currently we do not have a Python code sample to create the Sitelink extensions. We have raised this as a feature request to the team. To get you started, please find the attached code sample in Java assuming that the feed already exists to associate the Sitelink feeds to campaign or adgroup.

Could you please give this a try with the shared sample and let me know if you have any other questions?

feed_service = client.get_service('ExtensionFeedItemService', version='v1')

extension_feed_item_operation = client.get_type('ExtensionFeedItemOperation', version='v1')

extension_feed_item = extension_feed_item_operation.create

extension_feed_item.sitelink_feed_item.link_text.value = 'Text'

extension_feed_item.sitelink_feed_item.line1.value = 'Line 1 Value'

extension_feed_item.sitelink_feed_item.line2.value = 'Line 2 Value'

final_url = extension_feed_item.sitelink_feed_item.final_urls.add()

final_url.value = 'www.example.com'

# Add extension

try:

    feed_response = (

        feed_service.mutate_extension_feed_items(customer_id, [extension_feed_item_operation])

    )

except google.ads.google_ads.errors.GoogleAdsException as ex:

    print('Request with ID "%s" failed with status "%s" and includes the '

          'following errors:' % (ex.request_id, ex.error.code().name))

    for error in ex.failure.errors:

        print('\tError with message "%s".' % error.message)

        if error.location:

            for field_path_element in error.location.field_path_elements:

                print('\t\tOn field: %s' % field_path_element.field_name)

    sys.exit(1)

print('Created Sitelink %s.' % feed_response.results[0].resource_name).

This actually works. But its so hard to get Ids ...

Hello, 

You will be able to use the Feed, Feed Item, Extension Feed Item resources to pull the Feed Ids. You may also use the Interactive Query Builder to build the query. 

Thanks,

Hi there,

thx for the pointer towards the Feed and Feed Item ressources, I as looking at the Extension Feed Items before (with the Interactive Query Builder) but I couln't quite figure out how to link them to Feed or Feed Item for that matter and thus get an Id.

Because unfortunately the Extension Feed Item does not have an id.

Cheers

Fabian

Hello,

@Vito: We have already raised a feature request for the code samples in PHP. Please keep an eye on our blog for more updates.

@Fabian: We will let the team know of your pull request. You could use the specific campaign_feed and ad_group_feed which will return the corresponding Feed resource associated with the campaign from which you can get the Feed Id. Please find below the sample query:

SELECT campaign_feed.feed, campaign_feed.campaign from campaign_feed

Let me know if you have any other questions.
