API for the template of billing-transfers-v2 not found

[NICOLE HAN]

Hello,

We are using the template of billing-transfers-v2 as below.

Is there an api for billing transfers?

It seems like we can implement billing-transfers through the other two apis (Billing setup and Account budget)  but missing several parameters, e.g. currency, budget amount, start date and end date. 

Is it proper to use the two apis above and replace missing parameters with parameters like proposed_spending_limit, approved_spending_limit, adjusted_spending_limit, proposed_start_date_time, approved_start_date_time, proposed_end_date_time and proposed_end_time_type?

 

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi Nicole,

Thanks for reaching out. Please allow me to share this with our team to see if using these two services is a feasible solution for implementing billing transfers via the API.

Hello Nicole,

It looks like with Google Ads API, that functionality may be possible. You would need to do it in a series of steps. With the BillingSetupService , you can put your billing in place. Then, you can use an AccountBudgetProposal to set up the account budget afterward.  Billing setup has start_time and end_time, and AccountBudgetProposal has start time, end time, and proposed spending limit.

Hello，

Thank you for reply.

I posted another two but I could not find them. I don't know whether you can see them. if you see the same content, please ignore.

I'd like to try the steps above, but I have some problems with the following parameters.

I cannot find the parameter of currency.

Both  BillingSetupService  and   AccountBudgetProposal have start_time and end_time, which two should I use?

For budget amount, is it proper to use   proposed spending limit instead?

thank you very much.

Hello,

It looks like you didn't see the message I sent you on July 28th. Perhaps, it is in your spam folder. I've copied my message below. You are going in the right direction.

That's a great question. The currency is already set in the payments profile, so that should be inherited by the account. You can find the currency of the account in https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/reference/rpc/v8/Customer#currency_code.  ;

If you're talking about the account budget amount, I think you may be referring to https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/reference/rpc/v8/AccountBudgetProposal?hl=en#proposed_spending_limit_micros. You propose the spending limit and that sets it for the account budget.

As for the start date and time, that it usually also done in the account budget proposal; that is similar to the Account Budgets tab in the UI. You can also set it for the billing setup if you wish just like you see in the Billing Transfer tab of the UI.
