Ad assets performance using gaql

[Shon Otmazgin]

Hello,

While using the Google Ads UI and clicking on ads, there is a button at each row titled "View asset details". How can I pull this asset's performance data using GAQL? I tried using ad_group_ad_asset_view, but no data was returned.

also followed this link: https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/assets/fetching-assets

running:

SELECT
  ad_group.id,
  asset.id,
  metrics.clicks,
  metrics.impressions
FROM ad_group_asset
WHERE segments.date DURING LAST_MONTH
ORDER BY metrics.impressions DESC

returned zero resutls.

Hi there,

Thanks for reaching out to the Google Ads API Forum.

I can see that you are trying to pull the assets details for the discovery Ad. Currently the ad_group_ad_asset_view report only supports AdGroupAdAssetView for AppAds and Responsive Search Ads.

With regards to the ad_group_asset report, it pulls the extensions attached at ad group level hence it will not be able to pull said Ads UI screenshot data.

However, to retrieve Discovery Ads and Asset association information, my team already created feature request to support this. For now, kindly follow our blog as we will post relevant updates when it becomes supported. 

This message is in relation to case "ref:_00D1U1174p._5004Q2oAtCd:ref"

Thanks,

Thanks for the info.

Do you have any time estimation for that feature? days/weeks/months? Also you can think of any workaround in the meantime?

Hi there,

Thanks for getting back to us.

Unfortunately, we do not have any ETA for this, however, as mentioned above, you may keep an eye on our blog post or release notes as we post updates. Also, note that the supported Ad Types in the API is mentioned in this page. There seems to be no workaround in the meantime.

This is not a 

DISCOVERY_MULTI_ASSET_AD?

Hi,

Thank you for coming back to us. I hope you are doing well today.

This is not a DISCOVERY_MULTI_ASSET_AD?

>> With regards to this concern, as mentioned from the provided link (https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/reference/rpc/v14/AdTypeEnum.AdType#:~:text=feed%20video%20ad.-,DISCOVERY_MULTI_ASSET_AD,-Discovery%20multi%20asset), DISCOVERY_MULTI_ASSET_AD are supported by AdType.

The feature request that the team filed was about the Discovery Ad assets details, as currently the ad_group_ad_asset_view report only supports AdGroupAdAssetView for AppAds and Responsive Search Ads.

Have a great day.

Hi,

Kindly note that the Google Ads API permits only reporting of video ads. Video campaigns must be created using the UI or Google Ads scripts. Also, please refer to this table for the capabilities and limitations for each ad type. Let us know if you still want us to raise the feature request.
