Display Placement Data is Wrong

[Arben Kqiku]

Hi,

I am running a script, but the data I get from the script is different than the data that I get from the Google Ads console. So, I want to get placement statistics from the 2021-01-01 until the 2021-06-23, for the placement 'opex360.com':

function main() {

  

  var startDate = "20210101";

  var endDate = "20210623";

  

  var placementSelector = AdsApp.display().placements().forDateRange(startDate, endDate).withCondition("PlacementUrl CONTAINS 'opex360.com'").get();

  

  while(placementSelector.hasNext()){

    

    var currentPlacement = placementSelector.next();

 

    Logger.log(currentPlacement.getCampaign().getName());

    Logger.log(currentPlacement.getAdGroup().getName());

    Logger.log(currentPlacement.getUrl());

    Logger.log(currentPlacement.getStatsFor(startDate, endDate).getImpressions());

    Logger.log(currentPlacement.getStatsFor(startDate, endDate).getClicks());

    Logger.log(currentPlacement.getStatsFor(startDate, endDate).getCtr());

    

  }    

  

}

This is the data I get from the script:

As you can see, I only get the data for one campaign and one ad group. If I apply the same filters (date range, campaign name, placement name) in the Google Ads console, this is what I get:

First of all, I have 4 rows instead of only 1 that I get from the script. Also, the only row that I get from the script, the one in green, is wrong, since it says 20 impressions, and the script says 5 impressions.

Why is there data missing from the script? Why is the only data point in common wrong?

As an alternative, I could use the "Placement Performance Report", but the AdWords will be deprecated on the 27th of April 2022, so, I would prefer to avoid this alternative.

Thank you for your help!

Best regards,

Arben
