Logging options available in Adwords API

[Abhinav Sharma]

Hi There,

I am planning to build an Asp.Net core web API which will integrate with Adwords API. Could you please help me out to explore different options available to log the request and response (in detailed or summary) and sink it to some different log destination other than file.

The example in https://github.com/googleads/googleads-dotnet-lib/wiki/Cross-Platform-Development mentioned that using TraceUtilities we can provide the source file name for logging where client library logs the request and response.

Is there any other log sink available which I can use to capture the request and response. something like Azure app insight, splunk etc ?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Abhinav

Hi Abhinav,

Thank you for reaching out to us. Unfortunately for the .NET client library, the choices for logging are listed here and Logging can't be configured via App.config or Web.config, and will require using TraceUtilities to configure this. Otherwise, other log sinks aren't available, and therefore this would have to be a new feature request for AdWords API.

Thank you for submitting this feature request. Our top priority right now is to get the new Google Ads API ready for general availability. As such, we aren't planning on adding enhancements to the AdWords API, but we will continue to fully support it, and address any bugs as they are found. For more information on the state of the Google Ads API, please read the blog post at https://ads-developers.googleblog.com/2020/05/update-on-google-ads-api-beta.html. Let me know if you have further questions.

Thank you,
Bryan, Google Ads API Team
