Hi! When I pull data from the Ad Performance Report (using Stitch), I don't see ads from paused campaigns. I do see the paused campaigns in the Campaign Performance Report, but I'd like to be able to report on ads from paused campaigns as well. 

When I log into the Google Ads dashboard I see these ads, and they have cost, impression, etc. data associated with them. I'm assuming there is a segment that I need to add or remove, but I'm not sure which one to use. Thanks in advance!

I recently discovered that all the paused campaigns I was looking for all had the AdType of "Mobile app installs ad v2." I am seeing ads from paused campaigns, so the culprit seems to be this AdType that prevented these ads from being ingested. This seems to be some sort of custom AdType that I don't see on this list https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/reports/ad-performance-report#adtype. Wondering why they aren't coming through?

Hi Mark,

Thank you for reaching out to our API support team.

The supported entity types of the AdWords API's reports are limited as compared to the Google Ads API. That being said, you may note that the AdWords API is deprecated and will be sunset on April 27, 2022. We strongly recommend that you migrate to the Google Ads API as soon as possible.

You then try to use the ad_group_ad report instead. If you are still unable to extract these ad types, you may provide our team with the generated and complete request and response logs, with the request-id, and login-customer-id used. To enable logging, you may navigate to the Client libraries > Your client library (ex. Java) > Logging documentation, which you can access from this link.

For the logs, you may send these via the Reply privately to author option. If this option is not available, you may send the details directly to our googleadsa...@google.com alias instead.

Best regards,
