Getting Audiences From API Issues

[João Pedro]

Hello!

I'm having some issues when i try to get the audiences data from API.
The code I'm using is:

from google.ads.googleads.client import GoogleAdsClient

client_g = GoogleAdsClient.load_from_storage(version="v9") 
ga_service = client_g.get_service("GoogleAdsService")
client_customer_id = 'my great ID'

query = """
       SELECT
          audience.id,
          audience.resource_name,
          audience.name,
          audience.status,
          audience.description,
          audience.dimensions,
          audience.exclusion_dimension
        FROM audience
    """

search_request = client_g.get_type("SearchGoogleAdsStreamRequest")
search_request.customer_id = client_customer_id
search_request.query = query
stream = ga_service.search_stream(search_request)

ERROR: Request made:, Host: googleads.googleapis.com, Method: /google.ads.googleads.v9.services.GoogleAdsService/SearchStream,, IsFault: True, FaultMessage: Unrecognized fields in the query: 'audience.exclusion_dimension', 'audience.status', 'audience.dimensions', 'audience.description', 'audience.resource_name', 'audience.id', 'audience.name'.

This variable query I've found here:  https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/remarketing/audiences

And the example of the code here:

https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/reporting/streaming

What I don't understand is: if I've found all this in the documentation, it supposed to work, not fail. And I tried to run with 'campaign', 'adgroup' instead of 'audience' and it worked. What should I do?

Hi João,

Thank you for reaching out to the Google Ads API Forum. 

With regard to your concern, I can see that you are using the V9 version which is not supported to the report that you are currently using. With this, I suggest upgrading to the newest version as the report you are using is supported on the newest version. For more information please check this document.

Best regards,
