Ad approval status has been removed. The migration guide says we should use Policy Summary instead. But there isn’t a 1-1 mapping of status values:


Old Approval Status values (we used these in our app):
https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201702/AdGroupAdService.AdGroupAd.ApprovalStatus

  • APPROVED
  • DISAPPROVED
  • FAMILY_SAFE
  • NON_FAMILY_SAFE
  • PORN
  • UNCHECKED
  • UNKNOWN

New Policy Summary values:
https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201705/AdGroupAdService.AdGroupAdPolicySummary

  • APPROVED
  • DISAPPROVED
  • APPROVED_LIMITED
  • ELIGIBLE
  • UNDER_REVIEW
  • SITE_SUSPENDED
  • UNKNOWN

Is anybody familiar, or have a good idea how to map these new values?

Hi Mario,

The old and new status don't quite match one to another, since the old status gives you only the approval status, whereas the new values give you more information like the approval state, approval status and the additional policy restrictions around the approval.
