How to get labels attached to Google Adwords Ads

[Paul Grenyer]

I want to be able to get the labels attached to a google adwords ad via the Java api.

I can get the ads:

final AdGroupAdPage page = service.get(selector.build());


if (page.getEntries() == null)
   return;


for (AdGroupAd ad : page.getEntries())
   ads.add((TextAd)ad.getAd());

But there's no method to get label(s) from an Ad.

I can list all the labels:

Selector selector = new SelectorBuilder()
        .fields(LabelField.LabelName)
        .fields(LabelField.LabelId)
        .fields(LabelField.LabelStatus)
        .build();


        LabelPage page = labelService.get(selector);
        if (page.getEntries() != null) {
            for (Label label : page.getEntries()) {
                 System.out.println("Label id " + label.getId() + ", label name " + label.getName() + ", label status " + label.getStatus());
            }
        }

But I can't get the Ad ids they belong too.

Hi Paul,

You can get the labels of an ad by using the AdGroupAdService. You can use this example as a basis.

You can add the following line to get the first label of an ad

adGroupAd.getLabels(0).getName();

Cheers,
