URL of media_file for legacy_responsive_display_ad

[Gavin Sm]

Hello,

I am working on migrating to GoogleAds API. I notice that for legacy_responsive_display_ad queried from ad_group_ad service, there is no way to get the URL of its images.

For example, with AdWords API, after I get EnhancedDisplayCreativeLandscapeLogoImageMediaId from Ad Performance report for an responsive display ad, I can query MediaService for URL. Using the urls[], I can directly access the image.

Based on the migration guide, EnhancedDisplayCreativeLandscapeLogoImageMediaId is now ad_group_ad.ad.legacy_responsive_display_ad.logo_image, which is defined here. The field is actually the resource name of the MediaFile resource. However, there is no URL information provided by Media File service.

I understand that all new or edited responsive display ads are no long of type legacy_responsive_display_ad. However, for existing legacy_responsive_display_ad, we still need a way to access the attached images.

What is the new way to access those images for legacy_responsive_display_ad? If there is currently no solution, will GoogleAds API eventually have this feature to keep parity of Adwords API?

Thanks,

Gavin

Hello,

Is there any update on this? Lacking of the ability to get the media file URL is blocking our migration work to GoogleAds on our side and we are looking forward to an answer of whether this can be supported in the future.

Thanks,

Gavin
