Hi API group,

I tried to retrieve the the field "bidding_strategy_goal_type" from "AppCampaignSetting" of a AC Max Conversion campaign and the response was "UNKNOWN". According to the type description of AppCampaignSetting, there is actually no item applicable for Max Conversion AC campaigns. The only install-related type is "OPTIMIZE_INSTALLS_TARGET_INSTALL_COST" which is clearly only applied to AC for install not Max Conversion.

Could someone please confirm whether there is a missing item in AppCampaignBiddingStrategyGoalType here? Thank you!

Regards,
Xiao

Hi Xiao,

Thank you for reaching out. The link you provided is all of the available app campaign bidding strategy goal types available in Google Ads API. If you are using a different goal type, then it will appear as "unknown" in the API.

You can follow our Developer Blog for information on future releases.

Regards,
Mitchell

Hi Mitchel,

Really appreciate your confirmation on this . Apparently, one of the available bidding goal types for app campaigns, "max conversion", is not yet included in Google Ads API. 

Please share the feedback with product team and provide the fix. Some of our google ads clients are getting really confused about the "UNKNOWN" type. Thank you.

Hi Xiao,

Can you provide your client customer ID and the ID of the campaign where there is an issue via reply privately to author so that I can do some additional testing?
