Working Google Ads Data Transfer after deprecating AdWords API

[Ruslan Obolonsky]

Hello to everyone. 
As we know AdWords API will be deprecated on April 27, 2022.

However, it's not clear about the BigQuery Data Transfer Service for Google Ads.

Pls, help me to figure out will the BigQuery Data Transfer Service for Google Ads still work after deprecating AdWords API?

Hi Ruslan,

Thanks for reaching out to the Google Ads API Forum.

Kindly note that BigQuery Data Transfer Service for Google Ads is an implementation of the AdWords API to the BigQuery platform, and implementation of the Google Ads API / AdWords API to any platform is outside of our scope already. That said, I am unable to comment on whether BigQuery Data Transfer Service for Google Ads still works after deprecating the AdWords API.

Since, the AdWords API is deprecated and as of April 27, 2022, the AdWords API will no longer be available. That being said, you will need to migrate to Google Ads API. As for the clarification and guidance if there is any alternative for the data service which currently uses the AdWords API, you will need to get in touch with the BigQuery team by contacting them through the support channels available here.

Let us know if you have any further questions.

Regards,

Yasar Google Ads API Team

Hello Ruslan,

Thank you for getting back to us.

Please note that this support channel can only provide assistance to issues/concerns related to the AdWords API / Google Ads API.

As mentioned by Yasar, we can only recommend that you reach out the BigQuery team by contacting them through the support channels available here. Since you've also reached out to the community, we suggest that you make a follow up on that thread instead.

I'm dealing with the same situation, and have some new insights.

I submitted a bug on the web page of the documentation, and got some feedback.

This is the bug report

The feedback stated some preview is/was going on. I requested access but got no response whatsoever.

The slack group also contains discussions about this topic - didn't you use its search functionality?

At least someone got access to the preview, he stated a new Data Transfer became available after being approved.

So, how do you deal with the situation?

For us it is obvious that the BigQuery team is not that much interested in this feature, otherwise they would have started documenting this, sharing their plans publicly, etc. Ask yourself, is the feature mission critical? Then you should look into alternatives. Note that some companies (FiveTran, Supermetrics) have similar offerings.

In our case their deals weren't suitable, now I'm back to coding again... with a nice deadline.

Hi.

Thanks a lot for your reply.

I've filled out the form too. 
However, I don't have any answers at the moment.

I hope Google will make native integration between their services (Google Ads and Google BigQuery).
If anybody has any information about the availability of this new Google Ads API transfer to BigQuery - pls share it here.
