Everyday I grab the statistics for each keyword via a report schedule
and download. However I not realize this did not include any
performance of the ads themselves just the keywords.

I was checking out the difference between the ad performance report
and the keyword performance and I dont see a difference other than the
ad performance allows me to enable the missing CreativeId field.

Should I be able to switch my report generation and download to the ad
performance report and get all the same data from the keyword
performance plus the CreativeId? Or will I have to generate both
reports each day to grab the missing data?

Thanks for any suggestions!

Hello,

If you do run an ad performance report and include the CreativeId
column then you'll get similar data back, but the rows in your reports
will be split up by CreativeId (which, presumably, is what you want).
I'd just recommend that you schedule a few test reports and make sure
that your code parses them correctly.

Hello Vijay,

We don't offer any official support for using the AdWords API from
Flex, but I do believe that it's possible to call SOAP services from
Flex in general. There's an older thread about that topic here
