Hi there,

When requesting impression share metrics along with segment network, the impression share metrics return 0. Removing the segment, they do return data.

Request body without network:
"body": { "query": "SELECT campaign.id,campaign.name,metrics.search_impression_share FROM campaign WHERE metrics.impressions > 0 AND campaign.id = \"14540199277\" AND segments.date >= '2021-11-22' AND segments.date <= '2021-11-28'", "summary_row_setting": "SUMMARY_ROW_WITH_RESULTS" },

Request body with network: "body": { "query": "SELECT campaign.id,campaign.name,metrics.search_impression_share,segments.ad_network_type FROM campaign WHERE metrics.impressions > 0 AND campaign.id = \"14540199277\" AND segments.date >= '2021-11-22' AND segments.date <= '2021-11-28'", "summary_row_setting": "SUMMARY_ROW_WITH_RESULTS" }, Is this known and intended behavior? Thanks, Tiana

Hello Tiana,

Thanks for reaching out to the Google Ads API support. I have checked your both GAQL query on API and it seems working fine on my end.

Can you please confirm if you are using version v9 of Google Ads API? If yes and you are still experiencing issues, please provide the complete request and response logs with request ID or send us a screenshot where you have encountered that issue. So I can further investigate. You may send these to me via the Reply privately to the author option. If this option is not available to you, you may send it directly to googleadsa...@google.com instead.

Hi Jakeia,

Thanks so much for your response! It may be fixed in v9 then, since I was making the query with v8.
I'll try with v9 and get back to you on this as soon as possible!

Thanks,

Tiana

The issue still occurs with v9, so sent a response privately with request/response info.

Confirming that we also experience the same problem. The data from the Google Ads differs from the Google UI regarding search_impression_share from the keyword_view.

Hi Tiana,

Thank you for providing the logs privately. 

Upon checking, the 14540199277 campaign appears to be a Shopping Campaign. That being said, including the segments.ad_network_type = "SEARCH" filter would not be appropriate since the ads should serve more in the MIXED network type.

However, I too observed that the searchImpressionShare is indeed not being returned when the segments.ad_network_type is included whether in the SELECT or in the WHERE clause.

That said, allow me to raise this to the rest of our team for further insight and so we can investigate further. Well reach back to you once we have more details.

Hello Tiana,

Thanks for bumping this thread. It appears this got lost along the way. I've pinged some people I know for them to take a look.

Hello Tiana,

Unfortunately, we don't have an answer on this one, yet. I think it may have accidentally dropped between two people. I'm reaching out to them to find out what's going on there.

Hello Noémi,

I don't have an update, yet. This truly is a tough one to track down the reason. I'm working on bringing another engineer into looking into this to see if more eyes on the problem solves it.

Hello,

I got an answer back on this. We do not support MIXED ad network type at this time for Impression Share. So, this is working as intended.

Best,
