Downloading click performance report for a day

[Nimcy Sucheendran]

Hi

I am working on downloading click performance report for about 420 accounts for a day. All these 420 accounts are attached to a single parent account.

Question - Can i download the clicks for a day from all the accounts under a Manager Account through a single API call?

I get this error - googleads.errors.AdWordsReportBadRequestError: Type: ReportDefinitionError.CUSTOMER_SERVING_TYPE_REPORT_MISMATCH

Thanks in advance

Hi Nimcy,

You are getting this error message (CUSTOMER_SERVING_TYPE_REPORT_MISMATCH) because it is not possible to run a report at the MCC level in AdWords API. Report generation can only be done with client accounts. If you need to generate a report for multiple accounts, then you need to submit a separate report request for each account. 

You may want to consider using AdWords Scripts in generating report at MCC level. You may get in contact with them through this forum.
