Creating a campaign via API

[David Snyder]

Hello. First off, let me say that I am not a developer. I am asking my question here to help get some direction for one of our developers. We have a web based application and we want to give users the ability to place search ads. Basically, we will purchase the ads on one specific Google account every time an add is purchased, and then we will just bill our customer/user. We want to place an ad that will run for 5 days for a budget we will specify (like $150 USD). Our developer on this is having some trouble understanding how to create and purchase the campaign using the API. Like I said, I am just trying to get some direction for our developer. If anyone can provide any advice or even examples of code, we would appreciate it very much. Thanks!

Hi,

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

By reviewing your concern, I understand that you seek guidance on utilizing the Google Ads API to create a campaign. Kindly note that a Google Ads campaign is a set of one or more ad groups (ads, keywords, and bids) that share a budget, location targeting, and other settings. Campaigns are typically used to organize categories of products or services offered by an advertiser. I would recommend you refer to this “Campaigns” documentation for more information. Additionally, I would suggest you kindly refer to the “Create Campaigns” guide on how to create campaigns using the Google Ads API.

I hope this helps. Kindly get back to us if you have any further questions related to the Google Ads API.
