Mapping "Campaign Type" filter in the UI to that of Campaign and Keywords Performance Reports.

[scor...@gmail.com]

Hi, I tried looking for a mapping of the Campaign Type filter and column in the AdWords UI to that of the reports in API.

It seems for Campaign, it is Advertising Channel field. How about in Keywords performance reports? I'm assuming I should also be able to filter Keywords by Campaign type because the UI gives that option. Keywords list aactually has the Campaign Type columne you can add to it.

Please enlighten me on this. Thanks!

Hi, 

You are right, the campaigns can only be filtered with type in the CAMPAIGN_PERFORMANCE_REPORT and FINAL_URL_REPORT. You might have to run the CAMPAIGN_PERFORMANCE_REPORT with the appropriate condition for AdvertisingChannelType and AdvertisingChannelSubType and get the campaign Ids by type and then run the KEYWORDS_PERFORMANCE_REPORT with specific campaign Ids as a filter condition. I will pass on your feedback to the team about adding the Campaign type as a field in the Keywords Performance Report. I'll not be able to comment if this will be added and a timeline for this to be available. You could keep an eye on our blog for updates and announcements about the future releases. 

Please let me know if you have any further questions. 

Thanks,
