It seems that reporting tasks (e.g. using the GoogleAdsService to ask for an ad group ad performance report for the last 6 months on high-volume accounts) can't be run async using MutateJobService or some other API endpoint. I couldn't find in the documentation any information whatsoever about this topic, but maybe I've missed it. Can somebody point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.

Hi Horacio,

Thank you for reaching out.

Could you confirm my understanding in the statements below which is correct?

You wish to download reports and call MutateJobService at the same time.
You wish to use MutateJobService to download multiple reports.

I am afraid both scenarios are not possible. MutateJobService only supports a specific type of operation that can be found here.

If I misunderstood this, could you elaborate this further so I could better assist you?
