Hi Deniz,

I had to repost your initial post and removed your account information for security purposes. For future posts, you may refer to our forum posting guidelines in order to avoid exposing sensitive information in this public forum.

"Hi,

we have a problem with the adwords "AD_PERFORMANCE_REPORT" - v201710.

Here we get back a row for each ad, but some ads are missing, which we get for example in the Adwords Dashboard.

We have the missing ads compared to those that are in the api result, but unfortunately could not find any difference in the configuration.

Following ReportFields are enabled:

'Id',

'Cost',

'Engagements',

'CampaignId',

'AdGroupId',

'Date',

'Impressions',

'ActiveViewCpm',

'Clicks',

'Ctr',

'ActiveViewCtr',

'AllConversions',

'Interactions',

'InteractionTypes',

'AverageCpc',

'AverageCpm',

'ActiveViewCpm',

'AverageCpv',

'VideoViews',

'VideoViewRate',

'VideoQuartile25Rate',

'VideoQuartile50Rate',

'VideoQuartile75Rate',

'VideoQuartile100Rate',

'ViewThroughConversions',

'AveragePosition',

'ActiveViewMeasurability',

'ActiveViewMeasurableCost',

'AdNetworkType1',

'AdNetworkType2',

'CampaignName',

'AdGroupName',

'AdType',

'Description',

'DisplayUrl',

'Headline',

'ImageAdUrl'

The affected Ad Account ID is: XXX-XXX-XXXX

We want to display the ads segmented by date - but some are missing. And we cant get behind why :/"

Thanks in advance!

Deniz Laun

Hi Deniz,

As for the issue, could you provide the complete AdWords UI screenshot containing the ads you mentioned were not being returned by the Ad Performance Report? You may reply to me via the Reply privately to author option.

Hi Deniz.

Have you set the report to show rows with zero impressions? If you're not showing ads with zero impressions it might account for the missing ads in the report.

If the missing ads are all paused or enabled you might have to check the Status filter in your report definition.

Hi Deniz, 

You are right, the results that you are getting via API does not seem to be in sync with the results in the UI. In addition to what Peter said about the zero impressions, could you please check if you're using 32-bit PHP? If so, you'll need to change all instances of intval() to floatval() before running an example. Please check here for more details. 

If this is not the case, could you share the downloaded results for the report definition that you shared in your first post? You could use reply privately to author option while sharing the data. 

Thanks,
