hello,
are there any news regarding campaign groups on API (in google ads)?
i know it is supposed to be deprecated, but i understand it will still be supported in the UI, and we use it quite a lot..

i would just like to know which campaign belongs to which campaign group, basic relation info.

i can currently only get it from adwprds, but it will go down in April.

thanks!

Hello Tom,

Thanks for reaching out to the Google Ads API support. Yes, the AdWords API is deprecated and will sunset on April 27, 2022. We recommend that you migrate to the Google Ads API as soon as possible.
Could you please confirm which reports you are referring to? and which you have been using on the AdWords API. 
So I can give you a specific recommendation. Because the resource name has been changed to the following mapping from the AdWords API reports to the corresponding Google Ads API resources.

Best regards,

Hi thanks!
in the mapping that you sent, i can only find the "CampaignGroupId" in adwords. but in googleAds it says deprecated.
regarding you question about reports - 
all my queries are in google ads APIs.
in my usage - i need to assign each campaign to its campaignGroup. i was hoping to do it via the CampaignGroupId.
in google ads, as said.. it cannot be done. 
so only for this task i query adwords API for 2 reports:
1. CAMPAIGN_GROUP_PERFORMANCE_REPORT with fields Id and Name - to get campaign groups id and name.
2. CAMPAIGN_PERFORMANCE_REPORT with fields CampaignId and CampaignGroupId so i can relate campaign to its campaigngroup
then i relate each campaign to its campaignGroup id and name.

hope we can find some solution here.. quite a basic usage. it would be too bad if i lose it.
thank you
Tom

Hi Tom,

Thanks for getting back to us.

I understand your needs with regard to this feature. However, our team has already created a feature request for CampaignGroupId in Google Ads API. Please do note that all requests are not guaranteed to be supported soon in the Google Ads API. With this, I would suggest keeping an eye on this blog as we will post any relevant updates when they become supported.

Let us know if you have any additional questions.
