Disapproval Reasons for Keyword/AdExtension

[Lloyd Pick]

Hi,

Were currently trying to fetch disapproval reasons across accounts. We can successfully pull down reports using AD_PERFORMANCE, AD_EXTENSION_PERFORMANCE & KEYWORD_PERFORMANCE to get the ID's of the disapproved objects by filtering on 'ApprovalStatus'. We could then take those objects and look them up in the API to find their 'disapprovalReasons'.

However the only one where we can actually lookup disapprovalReasons is the Ad, all the others only provide the approvalStatus.

For Ads... AdGroupAdService::Ad disapprovalReasons

For Keywords... AdGroupCriterionService::AdGroupCriterion::BiddableAdGroupCriterion approvalStatus

For AdExtension (Keyword)... AdExtensionOverrideService::AdExtensionOverride approvalStatus

For AdExtension (Campaign)... CampaignAdExtensionService::CampaignAdExtension approvalStatus

Is there anyway to pull disapprovalReasons for the other objects at this time?

Are they ever going to be available through reports rather than the service API?

Many thanks guys

Hi Lloyd,

There is no way to retrieve the disapproval reasons for criteria or extensions via the API.  I'll talk to the team about exposing this data but even if it can be exposed it would need to wait for another API version to be released.

Hi,

I'm wondering if this was ever addressed? We would like to get disapproval reasons for keyword criterion via api.

Thanks,
Jon

Hi Jon,

Yes, there is now a feature to get the disapproval reasons! It is located under the BiddableAdGroupCriterion.
