Hi,

We've noticed that some of the XxxPerQuery fields in this report are expressed as percentages rather than doubles.

We're using the 1.36.0 releases of com.google.api-ads/ads-lib and com.google.api-ads/adwords-axis to interact with the reporting service.

We build a ReportDefinition and request the ReportDefinitionReportType/PAID_ORGANIC_QUERY_REPORT. The ReportDefinition's Selector is configured to retrieve the following fields:

  • Date
  • SearchQuery
  • Impressions
  • Clicks
  • OrganicClicksPerQuery
  • OrganicQueries
  • OrganicClicks
  • CombinedAdsOrganicClicksPerQuery
  • CombinedAdsOrganicClicks
  • CombinedAdsOrganicQueries
The customer ID we're requesting this for is 125-850-9086 and we're using the ReportDownloader to download the data as a gzipped CSV.

The OrganicClicksPerQuery and CombinedAdsOrganicClicksPerQuery values contained within the CSV are formatted as percentages. For example:

{"Day" "....",
 "Organic Clicks/Query" "16.67%",
 "Organic Queries" "6",
 "Organic Clicks" "1",
 "Combined Clicks/Query" "16.67%",
 "Combined Clicks" "1",
 "Combined Queries" "6"
...}

Thanks,
Paul

Hello Paul,


I've confirmed this behavior and logged an internal issue for this. We'll schedule the fix for a future API release.

Thank you for reporting this issue.
