Hello,
In Adwords API this query was supported
" SELECT CampaignName, Conversions, ConversionValue, AllConversions, AllConversionValue, Interactions, InteractionRate, VideoViews, VideoViewRate, AverageCpv, DevicePreference, Engagements, CrossDeviceConversions FROM PLACEHOLDER_FEED_ITEM_REPORT  WHERE AdNetworkType2 IN [SEARCH,YOUTUBE_SEARCH,YOUTUBE_WATCH] AND Impressions>0 AND Device IN [HIGH_END_MOBILE] AND IsSelfAction = TRUE AND Status = ENABLED AND PlaceholderType =1  DURING LAST_MONTH "

But in Google Ads API, majority for the fields from above query are not compatible with each other like
interaction , interaction rate not compatible placeholder type
all conversion, all conversion value not compatible with isselfaction
videoviews,video view rate, engagement, average cpv not compatible with device

Since Adword will sunset so we are migrating to Google Ads ,so
How to get these data of these fields for particular place holder type

There are other report as well which have some metrics supported in Adword but not supported in Ads API like top impression in a Account Performance Report is not supported in customer table in Ads API

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

I understand your concern as to some fields are previously supported in the AdWords API and are no longer supported in the Google Ads API. We have raised multiple feature requests for those fields already; however, there is no guarantee if this will be supported in the API soon. In the meantime, we suggest that you follow our blog for updates and new releases.

As an aside, since you're migrating to the Google Ads API, we recommend using the Query Migration Tool to translate your AWQL queries into GAQL.

Hello,

Hope you're safe and doing fine.

We received an update from our team regarding the error you've encountered. As per this migration mapping guide, the PLACEHOLDER_FEED_ITEM_REPORT is mapped to feed_item and feed_item_target. Those mentioned fields encountered an error when using the feed_item_target because this view doesn't support metrics. That said, you can use the feed_item view instead.
