Hi,

I am new to Ad Exchange, and was wondering if it is possible to create video campaigns - similar to AdWords - where all the ads are youtube-oriented (with Cost-per-view) and if so, will I be able to get their statistics using the API?

* By statistics I mean - number of views, cost per view, and so on.

Thank you,
Tamar.

Hello Tamar,

It sounds like you're interested in getting reports for these campaigns, in which case, yes, you should be able to get that kind of information. I'd suggest looking into the listing of report types. For example, you might be interested in Ad Performance Reports, Ad Group Performance Reports, and Campaign Performance Reports.

Regards,
Mark Saniscalchi

Hello Mark,

Thank you for the quick reply.

All the links you posted are for the AdWords API.
The problem is that AdWords API do not return statistics for Video campaign on YouTube, so I won't be able to get my information.

Do you work with YouTube? Or is all your work there is through the AdWords API?
(If it is only through AdWords API then I wouldn't be able to get my info)

Thanks,
Tamar.
