Bidding Strategy Field is missing

[Iván López]

Hello,

This is a query Im trying to do in my request trough Google Ads API (V8). Everything is going ok, but the field "bidding_strategy.type" is not coming in the response attributes. I also tried to access "bidding_strategy.id" and "bidding_strategy.name", but the result is the same, nothing.

query = """
SELECT
campaign.id,
ad_group.id,
ad_group_criterion.criterion_id,
metrics.conversions,
metrics.value_per_conversion,
metrics.conversions_value,
metrics.cost_micros,
metrics.clicks,
ad_group_criterion.keyword.text,
ad_group_criterion.cpc_bid_micros,
ad_group_criterion.keyword.match_type,
bidding_strategy.type,
bidding_strategy. id,
bidding_strategy.name,
ad_group_criterion.position_estimates.first_page_cpc_micros
FROM keyword_view WHERE campaign.advertising_channel_type = 'SEARCH'
AND ad_group.status = 'ENABLED'
AND metrics.conversions > 0
AND ad_group_criterion.status = 'ENABLED'
AND ad_group_criterion.negative = 'false'
AND campaign.status = 'ENABLED'
AND ad_group_criterion.system_serving_status = 'ELIGIBLE'
AND campaign.name NOT LIKE 'brand'
AND campaign.name NOT LIKE 'BRAND'
AND campaign.name NOT LIKE 'marca'
AND campaign.name NOT LIKE 'MARCA'
AND segments.date BETWEEN '{start_date}' AND '{end_date}'""".format(
start_date=from_date,
end_date=end_date)

Here is an example of the results in this query:
 campaign {
    resource_name: "customers/7910637076/campaigns/100925979"
    id: 100925979
  }
  ad_group {
    resource_name: "customers/7910637076/adGroups/4243192059"
    id: 4243192059
  }
  metrics {
    clicks: 2253
    value_per_conversion: 78.24969001993682
    conversions_value: 31843.68693971
    conversions: 406.949688
    cost_micros: 22610000
  }
  ad_group_criterion {
    resource_name: "customers/7910637076/adGroupCriteria/4243192059~36756703161"
    position_estimates {
      first_page_cpc_micros: 10000
    }
    keyword {
      match_type: EXACT
      text: "bodeboca"
    }
    criterion_id: 36756703161
    cpc_bid_micros: 10000
  }
  keyword_view {
    resource_name: "customers/7910637076/keywordViews/4243192059~36756703161"
  }
}

The documentation from keyword_view (https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v7/keyword_view) says that this is the way. And this field is returned when I ask for the same request through Adwords API, but we need to migrate it to Google Ads API since you are gonna to deprecate it.

Some help, please :)

Hi,

Thanks for reaching out to the Google Ads API Forum.

I have tried to retrieve the bidding strategy type using the campaign.bidding_strategy_type field with Keyword_view resource, and it returned the type of bidding strategy in my response. You may also try to use campaign.bidding_strategy_type in your select clause of your keyword_view query. Let us know if this helps.

Hello!

Thank you very much for the info because it works this way. But, only for my understanding, why is this field not accesible from bidding_strategy.type, since bidding strategy is an attributed resource of keyword_view, as for example, ad_group is? If i can access ad_group.status (for example) from keyword_view, I should be able to access bidding_strategy.type. And the query does not throw an error, this field simply does not appear in your response.

Thank you,

Iván

Hi Ivan,

The Bidding Strategy resource should be an available attributed resource in your query. Can you please provide us with your complete request and response so that we can have a look?

Thanks,

Is this solved yet?

Using the following query:

SELECT ad_group_criterion.keyword.text, bidding_strategy.type FROM keyword_view

returns no   bidding_strategy.type

Result row:

{"adGroupCriterion":{"resourceName":"customers/3494982994/adGroupCriteria/252561751~11616591","keyword":{"text":"baby"}},"keywordView":{"resourceName":"customers/3494982994/keywordViews/252561751~11616591"}}

Hi Marc,

Thanks for commenting on this thread.

I can see that some of your campaigns have ​​bidding strategy type ​​target_spend. This is a standard that is embedded into the campaign. This is the reason why you should use the campaign.bidding_strategy_type field with the Keyword_view resource. Note that you may retrieve the bidding strategy type using the bidding_strategy.type field if you have created a portfolio bidding strategy via BiddingStrategy service where you use an existing BiddingStrategy. For the standard bidding strategies, we do not set the bidding_strategy field.

Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any further questions.
