RE: some questions about how to obtain gclid and gbraid for server-to-server function

[Google Ads API Forum Advisor]

Hi,

Thank you for reaching out to the Google Ads API support team.

Please find the following answers to your questions: 

Note that the server to server function is out of scope for Google Ads API team, as we can only assist with technical queries or concerns related to the Google Ads API. 

For IOS:

Question 1)

The Google Ads API does not support obtaining the parameters in a certain link after installing the app. Also, it's not possible to obtain the GCLID and GBRAID parameters for app campaigns. I will raise a request for this feature to become available in the Google Ads API. However, I cannot provide a scheduled timeline for its availability in the API. So, I would recommend you to follow our blog post and release notes for future updates.

Questions 2) and 3)

The deep link is not yet supported in the Google Ads API, I will raise a request for this feature to become available in the Google Ads API. However, I cannot provide a scheduled timeline for its availability in the API. So, I would recommend you to follow our blog post and release notes for future updates.  

2. For Android:

Is the gclid parameter obtained from DeepLink? If so, under what circumstances can DeepLink carry this parameter? 

It's not possible to obtain the GCLID from the deeplink.    

Thanks,
 

Google Ads API Team
