Question

When running a Keyword report in AdWords API v13, the data for both the Search and Display Network will be returned in the same report.

I have tried running the v201109 Ad Hoc Keyword Performance Report and it never returns the Display Network data. I have added a predicate (where AdNetworkType1 is CONTENT or SEARCH), but this does not help. If I run the (in this case) Managed Placements Performance Report, all the Display data comes through as expected.

Is this the way this is supposed to work or is there some type of issue within the API?

If this is supposed to work this way, why is AdNetworkType1 available in the Keyword Performance report as a predicate?

Is there any single report that can give me both the keyword breakdown and the Display Network stats? Will I have to run two (or more) separate reports now?

Was it helpful?

Solution

The v201109 KEYWORDS report only returns data related to keyword criteria. Other criteria types that work on the Display Network can be fetched using the generic CRITERIA report.
