Lower() function doesn't working

[Banu Chandar]

Hi Google Support,

I've run into an issue with the Google Ads Query Validator and need some help debugging.

  * API Version: v11

  * Query: "SELECT ad_group.name FROM search_term_view WHERE lower(ad_group.name) LIKE 'sds'"

  * Result: Invalid Query (errors below)

    * 'lower(ad_group.name)' is not a valid field in the WHERE clause when 'search_term_view' is the resource in the FROM clause. Fields in the WHERE must be 'Filterable'.

  * Link to query result: https://gaql-query-builder.uc.r.appspot.com/v11/share?q=SELECT%20ad_group.name%20FROM%20search_term_view%20WHERE%20lower(ad_group.name)%20LIKE%20'sds'

  * Expected result: [PLEASE FILL IN (if the query validator produced results that are different than the Google Ads API server, please include your complete logs)]

Thanks!

Hi Banu,

Thank you for reaching out to the Google Ads API support team.

You can not use Lower function. Please refer to the GAQL query grammar guide. You can try below the query.

SELECT ad_group.name FROM search_term_view WHERE ad_group.name LIKE 'sds'

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
