Report download issues

[Praveen Jose]

Hi Guys,

I have been trying to download a criteria performance report with the below report configuration 

report = {

      'reportName': 'Header - Last 7 days CRITERIA_PERFORMANCE_COST_REPORT for '+vAccName,

      'dateRangeType': 'LAST_7_DAYS',

      'reportType': 'CRITERIA_PERFORMANCE_REPORT',

      'downloadFormat': 'CSV',

      'selector': {

          'fields': ['Date', 'AdGroupId', 'CampaignName', 'AdGroupName', 'Impressions', 'Clicks', 'Cost'],

          'predicates': [{'field': 'Cost','operator': 'GREATER_THAN_EQUALS','values': ['0']}]

      }

  }

I am using a file object to write the report data to a csv file . However i am getting the below error

UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 16383: unexpected end of data

The above code sample works perfectly when the predicate is given as {'field': 'Cost','operator': 'NOT_IN','values': ['0']}

Can someone please provide guidance here?

Thanks in advance

Hello Praveen,

I have used the predicate GREATER_THAN_EQUALS in my report definition and was able to fetch the report successfully. You will only be able to use this predicate for the numeric fields like AdGroupId, Impressions, Clicks, or Cost fields. If you are still facing the issue, please share the query snippet and the error you are facing. You could use reply privately to the author option while sharing the information requested.
