Campaign creation options

[Andrew Hrimov]

Hello, I'm developing platform that allows to create-update-delete campaigns on GoogleAds (v10) using Python. At now, I do CUD operations for Smart Display Ad, and I have 2 misunderstandings about API. I have found how to manage almost all options exclude these ones:

So, my questions are:

1. I've found how to set GeoTargets (create & update). But how can I set Target option to "Presence" via API? Which method to use (service, operation)?

2. How can I set Marketing objective to "Website traffic"?  Which method to use (service, operation)?

Thanks in advance!

Hello again, GoogleAds Team!

According to second problem, the most close service seems CampaignConversionGoalService and closest way to solve it -- update existing ConversionGoals to achieve Website Traffic marketing objective. But it raises INCONSISTENT_FIELD_VALUES error for every resource_name.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Andrew,

Campaign goals aren't supported in the API, they are in the UI for the purpose of narrowing down recommendations when setting up a campaign, something that isn't as useful in the API.

Regarding setting targeting style of  geotargets, you can use the CampaignService to set the PositiveGeoTargetType setting in GeoTargetTypeSetting. For specific help on Python implementation you can reach out to the issue tracker.

Is it, Campaign Goals UPDATE, available in the API now?

[Google Ads API Forum Advisor]

Hi,

Using campaign goals, you can optimize particular campaigns for specific conversion actions. If you have campaigns with objectives that diverge from your account-level goals, you can modify each CampaignConversionGoal and you can set the bids accordingly. I would recommend you to check this guide on Campaign goals for more information. But setting the goal type for campaigns is not supported through the API. 

 

This message is in relation to case "ref:!00D1U01174p.!5004Q02ZIqWs:ref" (ADR-00100033)
