Hello,

If I am not wrong, the asset_group_product_group_view report, is the equivalent report for PERFORMANCE_MAX campaigns from the product_group_view report in the shopping campaigns, isn't it? If this is not like this, please, let men know which is the equivalente report for performance.

Assuming that it is, in product_group_view we have a field, with the ad_group_criterion that is related to this report: ad_group_criterion.display_name

This field is necessary for me, because it gives me the necessary info about the nodes and the path to the product group.

But I cannot see something similar in asset_group_product_group_view. Where can I get this information for the listing groups from PERFORMANCE_MAX campaigns?

Thank you,

Iván

Hi Iván,

Thank you for raising your concern.

So that we can check the available resources in the Google Ads API that can be used to get this information, could you provide the screenshot of the UI showing it?

We have exactly the same question.  Any update on this please?  The screenshot requested is attached.

Hi Oliver,

Thank you for reaching us out. I am Sherwin from Google Ads API support team. I hope that you are doing well today.

Moving forward to your concern, upon checking on our end, it seems like you created a thread pertaining to the same concern regarding the listing groups. You mentioned in that thread that you found out that you need to use asset_group_product_group_view instead of product_group_view. Could you please let us know if the asset_group_product_group_view report works for you? If not, please provide us the complete  request and response logs with request ID and request header generated on your end? If you haven't enabled the logging yet, logging can be enabled by navigating to the Client libraries > Your client library (ex. Java) > Logging documentation, which you can access from this link. Furthermore, please provide us also with the full non-redacted and non-cropped screenshot of the UI report that you wanted to fetch using Google Ads API?

Hi Sherwin,

The question I asked on this thread has nothing to do with the other thread you mentioned.   As the original poster on this thread said, he uses the  asset_group_product_group_view report to get the listing groups of Performance Max campaigns.  We also use this report for Performance Max campaigns.  We're not debating whether or not this is the right report.  My question is exactly the same as the question posted here i.e. where can we get the name of the listing group?   I already attached the screenshot you asked for but I attach it again for convenience. It shows the listing group name that we need.  

You aksed me to send you a request/response but the issue here is I do not have a request log because I don't know how to construct one in the first place.

Can you please refer back to the original question and let us know where this field can be found?

Regards

Oliver

Hi Oliver,


I'm Darwin, also a member of the Google Ads API team. I work with Sherwin and allow me to assist you here. I hope you are doing well today.


Moving forward to your concern, "where can we get the name of the listing group?" my colleague previous explained the listing groups from a performance_max campaign, my colleague said, note that AssetGroupListingGroupFilter represents a listing group filter tree node in an asset group. That said, for your use case, the correct report type that you can use is the asset_group_listing_group_filter. The reason is, you can include the asset_group_listing_group_filter.case_value.product_item_id.value to get the product's information and you can also filter it by asset group as the asset_group resource can be utilized in the said report. You can construct the query with the above suggestion using the builder of this report type.
 

If the said, report does not work to your use case then, could you please provide the complete request and response logs with request ID and request header generated on your end? If you haven't enabled the logging yet, logging can be enabled by navigating to the Client libraries > Your client library (ex. Java) > Logging documentation, which you can access from this link. I ask this so our team further investigates your concern and provides specific recommendations on the issue.

Hi Darwin,

There is a difference between a 'product' and a 'listing group'.  The suggestion you made retruns the product details which is not what we want.  We want the listing group name which is completely different from the product name. We already attached a screenshot.

The original poster explained the issue very well.  I really have nothing to add to it.  I'll leave the rest to you.

It seems every time someone asks a question on this forum you guys ask for a request/response log without considering if this is a valid approach to answering the question.  The fact of the matter is we do not have a request log because we cannot even construct the request since we don't know what field name to use.  It really is frustrating why you guys do this all the time.

Hi Oliver,

Thank you for your patience.

I understand that you are looking for the listing group name, but despite my efforts to review our documentation on how to retrieve it, it appears that it isn't possible to get this using the API.

That being said, I have raised a feature request for this; however, there is no guarantee if this will be supported soon. With that, we recommend that you follow our blog for updates and new releases.
