Hello. 
I have an auto parts store. 
The part name very often consists of single digits and sometimes the system determines these numbers as a phone number and rejects the ads. 
Then I call the support service and in manual mode the moderator allows these ads to be shown. 
Now I want to download ads with digits via the API.
Will the system skip my ads with digits in the title?

Hi,

When you say that your ads has digits in the title, are you referring to the headlinePart1 or headlinePart2 of an ExpandedTextAd? As for this ad type, your headline with digits will be retrieved in the API as the same value with the UI. If, for example, your ad's headline in the UI looks like "Headline 123-456-000", then it will be retrieved in the API as that value via AdGroupAdService.get(). You can check this Java example (available to other languages that we support) on how to get an expanded text ad.

For the other fields with digits in your value in other ad types, I believe they will be returned as the same value that you can see in the AdWords UI as well. 

Let me know if you have further clarifications.

Thanks,
Vincent
