Hi,

Its weird because when fetching keyword performance the following fields will have a value of thousand while the value of it in adwords website is just in decimal.

example :

the max cpc in adwords website is 0.43 while in my fetched data it is 430000.

can someone please explain. thanks!

Hello Albert, 

The Money field is returned in micro currency units. For example, $1.23 will come back as 1230000 (1.23 x 1,000,000). Micro amounts always refer to the account's local currency. Please check this guide for more information. The CpcBid values from the Keywords Performance Report can take the following values: 
  • a money amount in micros
  • "auto: x" or "auto" if AdWords is automatically setting the bid via the chosen bidding strategy
  • "--" if no CPC bid applies to the row.
Let me know if you have any other questions. 

Regards,
Bharani, AdWords API Team

Hi Team, 
Can you please let me know how to get the value of this 
  • "auto: x" or "auto" if AdWords is automatically setting the bid via the chosen bidding strategy
.As we are building a Webapp and need to see the Amount, Cost and other Money related Values on the UI.

Hi Anurag,

Thank you for raising your concern.

Could you try migrating to the Google Ads API, then use the ad_group_criterion, filter the ad_group_criterion.type by 'KEYWORD' and include the ad_group_criterion.effective_cpc_bid_micros?

Let me know how it goes after trying the provided suggestion.
