From the documentation:

{targetid}: The ID of the keyword (labeled "kwd"), dynamic search ad ("dsa"), or remarketing list target ("aud") that triggered an ad. For example, if you add a remarketing list to your ad group (criterion ID "456") and target the keywords ID "123" the {targetid} would be replaced by "kwd-123:aud-456".


I get a targetid here as kwd-106562695690

But there is no keyword ID as 106562695690 in the Keyword Performance Report.

Thanks.

Hey, 

Here are the tracked params of 2 different clicks

params are as follows-
{campaignid}|{adgroupid}|{targetid}|{keyword}|{matchType}|{network}|{placement}|{creative}|{adposition}|{target}&redirect_url={lpurl}

Case 1.
|5892399689|253118650|19393971250|kwd-106562736730|||g||58760778130|1o1|

Case 2.
|5892399689|248561290|19165783690|kwd-31500783666|+fastrack +watch|b|g||57846038170|1t2|

In case 1 the kwd-106562736730 is not present in keyword performance report.
In case 2 the kwd-31500783666 is present in keyword performance report.

I would like to know what id is given in case 1 and which report can I pull it from?

Hi,

19393971250 is a shopping adgroup, and 106562736730 looks like a product partition to me. Try running the CRITERIA_PERFORMANCE_REPORT instead of the KEYWORD_PERFORMANCE_REPORT and you should get the data back.

Cheers,
Anash
