Can you use the API to pull a campaign performance report at the MCC level?

[Tim Tsai]

Hi there,

I need to pull a campaign performance report via the API with the fields:

• CampaignId
• CampaignName
• ExternalCustomerID
• CampaignStatus
• ServingStatus

I want this report to cover all the campaigns under an MCC, but it appears that the API only allows you to pull a campaign performance report at an account level.

I know that you can pull a Campaign Performance Report at the MCC level via the front end. Is there a way to pull a campaign performance report with the fields listed above at the MCC level?

Thanks,

Hi Tim,

A report request can only include data from a single AdWords account. To gather reporting data for all the accounts under your MCC account, you need to submit a separate report request for each account by setting the clientCustomerId header. The ParallelReportDownload Java example shows how to download a report from an XML report definition for all accounts directly under a manager account in multiple parallel threads. This example should be run against an AdWords manager account. Example code in other languages is provided here.
