Generate Historical Metrics

[yair viner]

Hi,

in order to generate an Historical Metrics

i need to create the following:

1. Creates a KeywordPlan. 
2. add a KeywordPlanCampaign to the KeywordPlan
3. add KeywordPlanAdGroups to the KeywordPlanCampaign.
4. add KeywordPlanKeywords to the KeywordPlanAdGroups.

does it really create a Campigan with keywords and the client will need to pay for it or it only to get the Historical Metrics?

Thanks

Hi Yair,

Thank you for reaching out. When you use KeywordPlanService to generate the Historical Metrics you are not creating a campaign to run the ads and its only purpose is to generate data so it will not lead to any expense. Let me know if you have any further questions.

Thanks and regards,

But before that we are creating a campaign via  KeywordPlanCampaignServiceClient,

try (KeywordPlanCampaignServiceClient client =
             googleAdsClient.getLatestVersion().createKeywordPlanCampaignServiceClient()) {
    // Adds the campaign.
    MutateKeywordPlanCampaignsResponse response =
            client.mutateKeywordPlanCampaigns(String.valueOf(customerId), Arrays.asList(op));

    // Displays the result.
    String resourceName = response.getResults(0).getResourceName();
    System.out.printf("Created campaign for keyword plan: %s%n", resourceName);
    return resourceName;
}
