Hi Guys,

I am trying to pull performance stats for only search campaigns, aggregated at an account level. Is there a way to filter out product listing ads from Account_Performance_Report? I used to use click type to do that in the past but now segmenting by that doesn't give me the right value for impressions. I was aggregating impressions by click type = headline and it would match the total for all search campaigns. When I do that now, it totals up to search impressions + PLA impressions.

Any solution would be very helpful.

Thanks,
Atul

Hi Atul,

You could filter your Account Performance Report by search campaigns by using the predicate WHERE AdNetworkType1 = SEARCH. You can use that field to segment based on network type such as Search, Display, Video, etc.

Hi Anthony,

That'll still include shopping campaigns. Anyway to exclude them?

Thanks,
Atul

Hi Atul,

There is no way to exclude the shopping campaigns in the Account Performance Report. You could use the Campaign Performance Report and use a filter on the field AdvertisingChannelType.

Thanks a lot for the response Anthony.

I have a very basic question regarding AWQL and so I apologise in advance if it's been answered before. If I use the campaign performance report, I'll get one row per campaign. Is there any way to aggregate the same in my query and get a single row of metrics?

Hi,

No need to apologize. When using the Campaign Performance Report, your report rows will be aggregated based on campaigns. You will typically get one row per campaign unless you use a segment in one of your selector fields.
