Get Target ROAS recommendation from Google Ads API

[Narek Margaryan]

Hi, 

I am trying to get a Target ROAS recommendation value for a portfolio bidding strategy using the Google Ads API. I'd like to get the same value that's displayed in the shared library when creating a new bidding strategy. I have attached a screenshot of the UI to make it more concrete.

I tried querying the recommendation resource, but it doesn't have this value. 

Does the API have support for this? 

Thank you,

Narek

Hi Narek,

Could you confirm if you have already referred to the Recommendations guide? In the said guide, you should be able to extract the target_roas_opt_in_recommendation. That said, could you confirm if this is what you're looking for?

I did use the recommendation guide and tried to extract the target_roas_opt_in_recommendation. I have checked for three different accounts, that I am able to get a recommend Target ROAS in the UI yet there is nothing in the recommendations. 

Here's the query that I used: 

SELECT
  recommendation.target_roas_opt_in_recommendation
FROM
  recommendation
WHERE
   recommendation.type = 'TARGET_ROAS_OPT_IN'

If you need the account ids for troubleshooting I can send them privately through a direct message.

Thanks,

Hi Narek,

In order for our team to verify whether the Target ROAS recommendation from the UI indeed translates to the API's target_roas_opt_in_recommendation, could you share the complete Google Ads UI screenshot containing the said field?

Also, for additional troubleshooting purposes, could you also share the customer ID and the complete request and response logs, with the request-id, generated when you used the earlier query?

If you haven't yet, logging can be enabled by navigating to the Client libraries > Your client library (ex. Java) > Logging documentation, which you can access from this link. You may then send the requested information via the Reply privately to author option. If this option is not available, you may send the details directly to our googleadsa...@google.com alias instead.
