Hello Google Adwords Team,


Myself a developer, i am using Google AdWords API service for my application. I have few doubts regarding accounts.

  1. How can i pause/inactive an account?

  2. Is there any API function available to do the pause account operation in Google AdWords?

  3. I have few accounts under MCC, i need to pause few accounts among this. How can i do?

Can you please help me to solve these issues.

Hi Remya,

AdWords API doesn't allow you to deactivate an account. I guess your
best bet is to pause all campaigns in the account under question. To
pause campaigns, you can use CampaignService::get to get all
campaigns, and then use CampaignService::mutate to update their status
to paused. See the following code examples for more details on
retrieving all campaigns, and updating a campaign.

Hello Google Adwords Team


Conversion value problem on Keyword Report:

Here is the list of conversion related fields from Placement / Keyword performance report documentaion [ URL : http://code.google.com/apis/adwords/docs/developer/adwords_api_report_keyword.html#aggr_KeywordDaily].

ConversionCategory1 Action Category (attribute) conversioncategory
ConversionDescription1 Action Description (attribute) conversiondescription
ConversionName1 Action Name (attribute) conversionname
ConversionRate2 Conv. Rate (1-per-click) (measure) convRate
Conversions2 Conversions (1-per-click) (measure) conv

If i include any one of this field in report's
selectedColumns values, it will return an error, which shows below.  I have verified the report, by MCC level and  customerId level. On MCC level it contain conv="0" and in customeId level its giving an error.

[fault] => Array
                (
                    [code] => 30
                    [message] => One or more report job parameters is invalid.
                    [trigger] =>  The following columns are not supported by the Report Type Keyword : [Conversions]
                )


Can you please help me to solve the issue ASAP.

Hi Remya,

The v13 ReportService has the behavior that a column won't be
supported if the target account doesn't use that feature. So for
instance, if you aren't using an conversion tracking in that account
then the column will be rejected.

Best,
