I am trying to create Auction Insights Report from the metrics from other
reports. I would like to know if I can get the competitor names from any
report.

Hi Anup,

I'm afraid its not possible to get competitor names using AdWords API reports at the moment. You can keep an eye on our blog for updates or announcements about new features.

Just clarifying it again,So the "display domain name" in Auction insights report can't be fetched through API.
I read in on of your previous posts that same metrics can be retrieved from other reports.

Thanks

Hi Anup,

The competitor's domain in only available in the Bid Goal Performance Report for the TargetRoas strategy. You need to request for the TargetOutrankShareCompetitorDomain to get the competitor's visible domain URL for the TargetRoas strategy.
