Google Ads API does not return disabled campaigns

I am migrating our API ingestion from googleads to google-ads in python and I noticed that the campaign resource only returns entities that have status "ENABLED". In the googleads version, it returns all entities by default when you request for it.

I tried modifying the GAQL to include filtering like where campaign.status != 'ENABLED' and I get no results back from the API.

Is there a way to get entities with all status like "PAUSED", "REMOVED" etc? Also, is there a place to run the GAQL in the web UI? (They have the GAQL validator but it doesn't let me run it)

Solution

  • you can add in WHERE clause

    campaign.status IN ('ENABLED', 'PAUSED', 'REMOVED', 'UNKNOWN')
