Here in the documentation it says video campaigns are not supported by the API, but here in the documentation, there seem to be endpoints for creating video ads.

If I am mistaken here, and you cannot create TrueView campaigns via API endpoints, could it be possible to do so using Template campaigns?

Cheers,
Zain V.

Hi Zain,

Video campaigns are supported only in reports in AdWords API.

As you can see in the second documentation that you provided, video campaigns are supported in Google Ads scripts. However, you can only fetch them and it is not possible to create video campaigns in Google Ads scripts.

You may visit the Google Ads Scripts Forum if you have further concerns about Google Ads scripts.

Will this ever be added to the API? Our team (and a lot of others on the forums here) need to be able to create TrueView campaigns programmatically.

Hi Zain,

Unfortunately, I don't have a definite timeline when video campaigns are supported via AdWords API. You may follow our blog for any upcoming features and updates.
