Hi team!

I Google Ads UI we can see Assets and Associations like Image, CallOut, Location.

Could you please advice API report that can be used to pull LOCATION Assets list? 

Thanks in advance,

Hi Oksana,

Please be informed that the location assets do not store the location details in the asset. Instead, they store a Place Id that allows you to obtain the data via the Places ID. To get the addresses of the location assets, you need to use the Places API which comes at cost.

Thanks team! 

I don’t see 'Location’ as available asset type as example here https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v17/campaign_asset#campaign_asset.field_type .

But I think we used to be able to get Location Id (not details) via API earlier. Was this ability deprecated? 

Thanks,

Oksana

Hi Oksana,

The location assets are handled differently from other asset types. See Location assets for details. The campaign_asset.field_type won't contain the asset type 'location'. You need to use the asset.type field from the asset report. Please see the sample query below for reference: 

SELECT asset.location_asset.business_profile_locations,  
asset.location_asset.location_ownership_type, asset.location_asset.place_id, asset.id, 
asset.name, asset.resource_name, asset.source FROM asset WHERE asset.type = 'LOCATION'"
  

I have successfully replicated the above query on my end and managed to retrieve the location asset using the customer ID "1618748068". Kindly give this query a try. Once you have obtained the place ID, you will need to utilize the Places API to access the details of the locations, which incurs a cost.

Could you also let us know which report you've used earlier to retrieve the location ID?

[Oksana Sulyma]

Thanks for your response team, this is very helpful!

> Could you also let us know which report you've used earlier to retrieve the location ID?

In fact our client says that our application used to provide Location Assets information before (pulled from Google Ads API), but from engineering side I can’t find traces on that calls :)

Thanks again, I think we are all set here!
