Hi all,

when I use the TargetingIdeaService.get() function the result is a
page of TargetingIdeas. I'm interested in the order the ideas are
sorted, i.e. having all related keywords how does the system decide
how to retrieve the first X based on my request. Example: If I use the
Keyword-Tool via the Google website the default sort order is the
"Global Monthly Search Volume".

Can I set a parameter in order to get the wished order of the results?
Otherwise I have to request "as much as possible" ideas to get the
wished ones.

Best regards,
Dian

Hi Dian,

I believe the sorting of results for the TargetingIdeaService is based
on relevance. The sorting cannot be changed at this time, but is a
feature request that the core engineering team is aware of.
