Hi Google team,

Our company has more than 500 advertising accounts, and I want to get the daily advertising costs for each account. 

After testing, it takes 3.3 seconds to get an account. 

However, many of these accounts have no cost or are no longer in use.

How do I distinguish between these inactive accounts, which saves a lot of time?

Thanks,

David Feng

Hi David,

Unfortunately, there is currently no feature or service in the AdWords API that may allow you to distinguish whether an account's status is active or inactive. You may follow our blog for any announcements if and when such a feature will be made available in future versions.

For filtering accounts with no cost, you can use the "Cost = 0" as filter.

Thanks and regards,
Peter

Hi Peter,
Thanks for your reply.But I spent 3.3 seconds to get a account's cost,the time is long.
I want to know if this time is normal?

Hi David,

Download time may vary depending on the volume of data you are trying to retrieve and also through certain network factors.
