Hi API team,

We are trying to get campaigns via the new Google Ads API and it seems the API is not returning data for any campaigns with AdvertisingChannelType = DISCOVERY

We can get the data using the old AdWords API, but not the new one.

Documentation also does not list DISCOVERY as valid

https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/fields/v2/campaign#campaign.advertising_channel_type

Thanks and Regards,

Alberto

Hi Alberto,

Thanks for reaching out. There is no DISCOVERY type in the AdvertisingChannelType ENUM from the Google Ads API. The DISCOVERY type is currently not supported in Google Ads API so you will not be able to get this type of Campaign from Google Ads API call. You could check this link for the supported AdvertisingChannelType in the Google Ads API. A feature request has been made to add this type in the Google Ads API. However, we do not have an estimated release time for this new feature. I would suggest you keep an eye on the release notes for the new release information.

Please let me know if you have any further concerns.

Regards,
Xiaoming, Google Ads API Team
