Code Lists

[tam]

Hi there

Is there any way to use the API to get complete lists of the valid
values of your code lists? For example to obtain a complete list of
your valid 'city codes' or 'currency codes'?
I'm specifically interested in being able to get and maintan the
complete list of possible values relating to geotargeting (without
having to manually visit the webpage of values to check for myself
each time) but it would be handy to know whether the same applies to
the other lookup lists too.

Also, (and i realise this is unlikely...) is there any way of using
the API to detect if / when the values of a particular code list have
changed? If so this would be quite useful...

Thanks in advance

Hello Tam,

Unfortunately, the answer to both questions is no. I definitely see
the value of such functionality, but it's not something that's built
in to the AdWords API at this time. I believe that the Python client
library includes a number of CSV files of all the various codes that
are valid as of the date the library is released, but this is one-off
and not part of the API.
