Discrepancy between the data that is shown in the Google Ads Campaign Manager UI and data that is extracted from API

[anu varghese]

Hi Team,

I find a discrepancy with the data that is extracted for November month from Google Ads API and Google Ads UI.

 On detailed comparison I see that the impression and clicks count for just 3,4 campaigns alone show a huge difference and this is happening only for again 3 to 4 accounts.

Not sure of the reason for this difference. Normally both the extracted data matches.

Can anybody help me with this.

Hello,

We've also noticed some discrepancies over the last day. Historical cost appears to have changed drastically. As of Monday, our API pulls matched what was shown in the Campaign Manager UI, but now there are discrepancies. Has anything changed?

Hi Matt,

Thank you for the reply.

I tried to check and use again the query we provided with the date of March 2, 2023 and I confirmed that the data are matching. With this, could you provide us with the following information below so that we can further check this and provide appropriate recommendations to you?

• Complete API logs (request and response with request-id) generated on your end where you can see the discrepancies
• Entire UI screenshot without cropping where you can see the discrepancies

You may then send the requested information via the Reply privately to author option. If this option is not available, you may send the details directly to our googleadsa...@google.com alias instead.
 

Best regards,

Google Ads API Team
