LSA Reporting

Hi there,

Quick question: is it possible to report on Local Services Ads/Guaranteed Ads) through the Google Ads API?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Tiana,

Thank you for reaching out.

Local service ads do not appear to be currently supported as seen in this table of current supported ad types. If the said local service ad type is supported in the Google Ads UI, you may send to our team the complete screenshot containing the said ad and its metrics, so our team can then create a feature request, subject for review.

Also, if your screenshot will contain your user or account information, you may then send the requested details 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,

Peter Laurence Napa Oliquino Google Ads API Team

Hi Peter,

Replied privately with a screenshot of the local ads being available in the UI. Hope this helps!

Thanks,

Hi Tiana,

Peter replied to you privately, though it seems you may not have received his message. Please see his message below:

Thank you so much for sharing this screenshot.

Upon checking, you should be able to create local ads (and not local service ads) for your local campaigns.

In addition, local ads records should then be available via the ad_group_ad, and if you specifically filter using ad_group_ad.ad.type = LOCAL_AD. I hope this helps.

Hi Matt,

Thanks for your reply! Sorry, I guess I confused two things then. 
So: Local ads are supported, Local service ads aren't.

We don't have local service ads enabled ourselves, but I did find a URL where local service ads should be available in the UI: https://ads.google.com/localservices/
Would that be enough for a feature request?

Thank you,

Hi Tiana,

I can make the feature request on your behalf, although it isn't guaranteed that this feature will become supported in the API. Please keep an eye on the blog for updates.

Thank you!
