Will Get DynamicSearchAd (DYNAMIC_SEARCH_AD) still works after March 6, 2019?

[at]

Hi AdWords API and Google Ads API experts,

Recently we received an announcement of 'Upgrade Dynamic Search Ads in AdWords API and Google Ads API by March 6, 2019', it mentions that ADD/MUTATE ads using DynamicSearchAd (DYNAMIC_SEARCH_AD)  will fail.

Wondering whether GET them using  DynamicSearchAd (DYNAMIC_SEARCH_AD) will fail or not?

Thanks.

Hi,

As the blog post says, existing DynamicSearchAds will continue to serve. This said, you should be able to retrieve your DynamicSearchAds using the DYNAMIC_SEARCH_AD ad type.

Thanks and regards,

Luis

Thanks Luis!

A few more questions, would you mind to answer them?

1. Is there any changes on AD_PERFORMANCE_REPORT with this API upgrade? 

2. After March 6, 2019, can I still use AD_PERFORMANCE_REPORT to get the structure and performance data of old DynamicSearchAds?

3. If we want to migrate existing DynamicSearchAds to ExpandedDynamicSearchAds, we need to create a copy of current DynamicSearchAds, and they will have different AdId and AdType, is my understanding correct?

Thanks

Hello, 

Please find my response below: 

1. Is there any changes on AD_PERFORMANCE_REPORT with this API upgrade?
   

1. You should still be able to get the stats of the existing Ads using the Ad Performance Report. Was that your question? 
   

1. After March 6, 2019, can I still use AD_PERFORMANCE_REPORT to get the structure and performance data of old DynamicSearchAds?
   

1. Yes, that is correct. 

1. If we want to migrate existing DynamicSearchAds to ExpandedDynamicSearchAds, we need to create a copy of current DynamicSearchAds, and they will have different AdId and AdType, is my understanding correct?
   

1. Yes, the AdId is not expected to be the same. However, please note that the Ad Id alone is not a unique identifier. You will need to use the AdGroup Id along with the AdId to uniquely identify an Ad. Please check here for the object Id uniqueness in AdWords API. 

Thanks,
