Number differences campaign of a account

[Dương Lê]

Hi all, 

Can you help me?.

I try use  GetReportDownloader on file v201708/reporting /download_criteria_report_as_string_with_selector.py (https://github.com/googleads/googleads-python-lib) 

and use GetService on file v201708/basic_operations/get_campaigns.py but numbers campaign of two results is different. Get_campaigns.py is less than download_criteria_report_as_string_with_selector.py.

I don't understant it...

Hi Dương,

You could not compare the download_criteria_report_as_string_with_selector example and the get_campaigns example as both returns different sets of data.

The Criteria Performance Report returns data that is being aggregated on ad group criteria level, one row per ad group and criteria combination. While for get_campaigns example, it returns all campaigns in your account, meaning, the data being returned is on a campaign level.

If you want to get the campaigns via a report, then use the Campaign Performance Report instead.

Thanks,

Vincent
