Hi All,
i am trying to understand the micro-units and i would love a bit more
understanding. Currently my default currency in Adwords is AUD
(australian dollars), Is the micro-units based off the currency that
is defaulted in adwords or is it off the american dollar. Is $1AUD =
1,000,000 micros if that is my default currency
or is it only 1american = 1,000,000 micros and i have to run some kind
of conversion from US Dollars to AUD dollars

Hello,

The AdWords API, and data in AdWords reports, will always use the
local currency for your account. Since your account is in AUD, all
micro amounts refer to micros of AUD. I'm assuming that the
fundamental unit of currency is 1.00 AUD, so yes, 1,000,000 micros
should equal 1.00 AUD for your account.

Cheers,
