Video Metrics from Adwords API

[BAM - Girish Talluru]

Hi There,

We are very thrilled to know that video metrics are available from Adwords API and tried to pull a report with available metrics which is giving following error. The call and error is printed below.

Google API version v201509

API Call Parameters (Using Python) :

report = {'reportName': 'AdPerformance',

                    'dateRangeType': 'LAST_7_DAYS',

                    'reportType': 'AD_PERFORMANCE_REPORT',

                    'downloadFormat': 'CSV',

                    'selector': {

                        'fields': ["AdGroupName","AdGroupId",

                            "CampaignId", "AccountDescriptiveName",

                            "Impressions", "CampaignName",

                            "Clicks", "Cost", "AdGroupId", "AdGroupName",

                            "AdNetworkType1", "Date", "Status",

                            "VideoQuartile100Rate", "VideoQuartile75Rate",

                            "VideoQuartile50Rate", "VideoQuartile25Rate",

                            "VideoViews", "Conversions"

                        ]

                    }

                }

Error Message:

AdWordsReportBadRequestError: Type: ReportDefinitionError.INVALID_FIELD_NAME_FOR_REPORT

Trigger: None

Field Path: VideoQuartile100Rate

Same applies to other reports like Campaign Performance Report.

Can someone help me with what's wrong with the call?

Thanks,

Girish Talluru

Hi Girish,

I was unable to reproduce that error on my end. Could you please reply privately to author your client customer Id so that I can try to replicate this behavior?

Thanks,
