Traffic estimator in Google Ads API

[Aromal S]

Hi,

Is there any feature exacly like the TrafficEstimatorService of the AdWords API  in Google Ads API?

https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/traffic-estimator-service

I found a feature Forecast metrics of keyword plan in Google Ads API. But it doesnot have a parameter to specify the campaign budget. It's not alike TrafficEstimator

https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/samples/generate-forecast-metrics

Kindly Help

Hi Aromal,

The TrafficEstimatorService should map to the Google Ads API services listed here. It is also indeed discussed further in the generate forecast metrics guide. As for the budget, it should be taken from the budget of the campaign you specify in the KeywordPlanCampaign.

Hi Aromal,

This is Yasar and I work with Peter.

It appears that setting of campaign budget for traffic estimator is currently not supported in the API. With this, could you provide us with a screenshot where we can see the setting of the campaign budget for a traffic estimator in the UI, so that I can create a feature request on your behalf for this feature? 

Regards,

In the UI of keyword planner, I am able to select maximize clicks as bid strategy and use daily budget to forecast metrics. But I couldnot do the same using API. I humbly request you to create a feature request.

Hi Aromal,

Thank you for this screenshot. 

Allow me now to create a feature request for the ability to include a bidding strategy and daily budget in the generate forecast metrics feature. This request will still be subject for review and for any updates or announcements, you may for now keep an eye on our blog.

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

As for the feature request raised by my colleague (Peter) on this thread, this is still under the team's review and there is no guarantee if this will be supported in the API soon. That said, we recommend that you follow our blog for any updates and new releases.
