We have ads with final URLs and different URLs for mobile devices for example 


Use a different final URL for mobile:  http://www.example.com/clearance-m/cadillac

When ads is displayed on mobile then mobile final URL is used for landing page. but when I download the Final Url Report it contain the non mobile final URL. due to this inconsistency I am not able to connect the Final Url Report data to my landing page data.

I think ideally the Final Url Report should contain the actual URL that is used for final user landing page which is the mobile URL in this case.

Please help, is it a bug or the API is design the in this way.

Thanks

Hello Hazar, 

Could you share us the client customer Id of the account so I can take a look? You may also use the FinalMobileUrls which will return all the list of Final Mobile URLs. You can find the supported report types which return this field information in the link shared. You can chose to reply via Reply privately to author option. 

Thanks,

Hello Haxar, 

I think you missed the private message that I sent you. Replying the same here:

Thank you for explaining the use case. The Final URL Report will only return the effective Final URL with one row per URL. If you're looking to pull the Landing page data, you may use the Landing Page Report. I was able to generate a report which returns the Mobile URL. Here is the sample report query that I used:

SELECT CampaignId, CampaignName, ExpandedFinalUrlString, UnexpandedFinalUrlString FROM LANDING_PAGE_REPORT WHERE CampaignId IN ["114838501"] DURING LAST_7_DAYS

Can you give this a try and see if you're able to pull the information you're looking for?
