Display campaign marketing objectives via API

[veseo]

Hello,

can we specify Marketing objectives (https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/6175956?hl=en#compare) via the API? I checked the Release notes, nothing is mentioned there about them. I checked out The Campaign settings too - advertisingChannelSubType seemed to be the closest thing to a Marketing objective, but after creating a Display campaign with a marketing objective via the interface and downloading it via the API, it seems not to be the case.

So, is this feature still too new to be manipulated via the API? If yes, is there an ETA of its implementation?

Hello,

The campaign with the Marking objectives feature is available in the AdWords product side. Currently, the AdWords API does not support this feature. We can't comment on any future features of the AdWords API. Please watch our blog for any updates or announcements.

Thanks,

Umesh, AdWords API Team.

Hi Umesh, 

I have the same question. Is the answer still the same now in 2018? Are we still unable to pull the Marketing Objective of a Campaign via the API?

 Hi Arnab,

Setting up and retrieving marketing objectives is still not supported via the AdWords API and is currently only supported in the AdWords UI. You may follow our blog for any updates regarding this.

Also, since this is already a very old thread, I would recommend that you create a new one should you have any follow up clarifications regarding the AdWords API.

Thanks and regards,

Peter
