search_query_performance_report is only returning Search terms with 1 or more clicks

[Nellle Rickchards]

Hello, 

I'm using the search_query_performance_report to find additional keywords for our account. I'm running into an issue as my query is only returning search terms with atleast one click.

Ideally, it should return search terms with one ore more impressions (even if it had 0 clicks). 

Here is my code:

output = io.StringIO()

report_query = {

    'reportName': 'All Time days SEARCH_QUERY_PERFORMANCE_REPORT',

    'dateRangeType': 'ALL_TIME',

    'reportType': 'SEARCH_QUERY_PERFORMANCE_REPORT',

    'downloadFormat': 'CSV',

    'selector': {

        'fields': ['Query', 'AdGroupName', 'AdGroupId', 'Impressions',

                   'Clicks', 'QueryTargetingStatus'],

        'predicates': [

            {

                'field': 'AdGroupId',

                'operator': 'IN',

                'values': adgroup_ids,

            },

            {

                'field': 'QueryTargetingStatus',

                'operator': 'IN',

                'values': 'NONE',

            },

            {

                'field': 'Impressions',

                'operator': 'GREATER_THAN',

                'values': impressions_threshold,

            }

        ]

    }

}

report_downloader.DownloadReport(

    report_query,

    output,

    skip_report_header=True,

    skip_column_header=False,

    skip_report_summary=True,

    include_zero_impressions=False)

Hi Nellle,

Yes, you are correct, Search Query Performance Report returns data with non-zero impressions even though the search terms have zero clicks. This said, could you provide your clientCustomerId and the complete report definition you used in generating the report? Please reply via the Reply privately to author.
