Gathering Auction Insights via GAds API

[Eren Korkmaz]

Hi,

While I'm trying to gather auction insights data via API, I get the below error:

The developer doesn't have access to metrics: ''auction_insight_search_impression_share', 'auction_insight_search_top_impression_percentage', 'auction_insight_search_absolute_top_impression_percentage', 'auction_insight_search_outranking_share', 'auction_insight_search_overlap_rate', 'auction_insight_search_position_above_rate''.

As I understand from previous posts in 2023 & 2024, these metrics are not publicly available. However, it seems that it is still in the documentation. Do you have any clue if there is a update regarding the topic?

Hi,

Thank you for contacting the Google Ads API support team.

Unfortunately, these metrics are still not publicly available at this time. Since they are not accessible to developers yet, you’ll need to wait until they are opened up for broader use in the future. I recommend keeping an eye on the Release Notes and blog post, as any updates or announcements regarding the availability of these metrics will be posted there.

Thanks,
 

Google Ads API Team
