Hello,

I am just starting to work with the Google Ad API.  The first task I have is to upload our existing library of creative images to our account.  I have uploaded a handful of image files using the MediaFileService.MutateMediaFiles() method.  However, while I can verify the file was uploaded using the MediaFileService.GetMediaFile() method, I have been unable to find the files listed anywhere in either the Google Ads Manager UI (https://admanager.google.com) or the Google Ads API UI (https://ads.google.com).

Can a list of images I've uploaded be viewed in either of those UIs?  If so, where?  If not, is there anyway for a non-developer (i.e. not via an API) to view them somewhere?

Thank you.

Hi Chris,

Thank you for reaching out to us. I could see that you have uploaded the image files successfully using the MediaFileService.MutateMediaFiles() method and confirmed that it was indeed uploaded by using the MediaFileService.GetMediaFile() method. Unfortunately, there is currently no way to view the list of all uploaded images in Google Ads UI. However, you should be able to view these images on ad level.

Let me know if this helps.

Regards,
Dave
