Using Report to Pause Adgroups

[sz...@mymail.mines.edu]

Hello, 

Would I be able to using an Adgroup report to filter on a certain statistic such as average CPC and the pause all the adgroups that are above a certain threshold? Essentially I am trying to use the selector/predicate pairing in the report to filter the adgroups I want to pause and then loop through them and pause them all. Is this possible to do all through an adgroup performance report?

Thanks,

Sean

Hi Sean,

Through the AdGroup Performance Report, you will be able to apply filter to pull up AdGroups that are above a specific AverageCpc. However, mutate operations are not available via reports. Therefore, you will need to handle the pausing of AdGroups via API Services using the AdGroupService.AdGroup#status. Please refer this sample code and let me know if you have any further questions. For other code samples, please refer here.
