Placeholder Feed Item Report - IsSelfAction

[John Bliss]

Attempting to do this:

To see the clicks/costs/etc. for just sitelink X, use segment "IsSelfAction", and look at the "This extension" rows.

...from here. At first, I was just expecting to receive "IsSelfAction" as a field in the resulting report. No such field appeared despite the fact that I requested it and API did not throw an error. So then I tried:

<selector>

[other fields]

<fields>IsSelfAction</fields>

<predicates>

<field>IsSelfAction</field>

<operator>EQUALS</operator>

<values>This extension</values>

</predicates>

</selector>

...which threw error, "Invalid ReportDefinition Xml: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid content was found starting with element 'predicates'. One of ordering, paging is expected."

How do I "see the clicks/costs/etc. for just sitelink X?" Simple example XML, please? Thanks!

Hello John,

I see you have a separate thread on this issue with the support. I suggest we close this one to avoid duplication.

It's never clear to me which will get me an answer faster. I'm happy to update this thread with the fix when we find it. That way, the next person with this problem will be able to find it. Your call...

SOLUTION (for me):

<predicates>

<field>IsSelfAction</field>

<operator>EQUALS</operator>

<values>true</values>

</predicates>

...plus this note from AdWords API Support:

I can see what the issue with this report is now, the return value will be a string instead of a boolean. We'll fix it in the future releases.
