Targeting Idea Selector in library "googleads/google-ads-php" PHP

[Youness Chetoui]

Hello everyone,

I need some help with the library "googleads/google-ads-php". I juste moved of "googleads/googleads-php-lib" and I try to re use my function but i not understand how i setup the library to make this. The example on adword doc use the old library and I don't find the different class how i use in old library.

I don't find TargetingIdeaService and others class i used before like :

• RelatedToQuerySearchParameter
  
• TargetingIdeaSelector
  
• Paging
  
• etc ...

I really need help to understand how i get the TargetingIdeaService and make a request with different parameters in the new lib.

Hello Youness,

The equivalent service to TargetingIdeaService is KeywordPlanIdeaService in the new Google Ads API. You can refer here the same. You could refer to the Keyword Planning in the release notes to get more clarity. You could refer the code samples to create keyword plan, and keyword ideas from here. Let me know if you have any further questions.

Hi John,

Thank you for reaching out. I understand that you are migrating from Adwords API to Google Ads API. You could use KeywordPlanIdeaService which is equivalent of TargetingIdeaService in Google Ads API. Please note, the search parameter for the keyword idea types is not available in Google Ads API. You might find this code sample helpful to generate new keyword ideas using PHP client libraries. Additionally, refer to this migration guide for Adwords equivalent in Google Ads API for future reference. Let us know if you have any additional concerns.
