Keywords Planner in Google Ads API

0
votes

I am trying to use Keywords Planner programmatically, through its API.I came across Generating Targeting Ideas, which pretty much summarizes the use. When I visit Get Started, it states

Try the new Google Ads API—which has the latest Google Ads features. The AdWords API is in maintenance mode and not being actively developed.

I visit Google Ads API, where I cannot find anything related to the Keyword Planner.

Has someone any idea if the planner is available through the new API, or do I have to use the old one?

Thanks,

Alexios

I'm currently working on converting an old Adwords cron job to the new Ads API. While I'm not sure if this is exactly what you're looking for, the old TargetingIdeaService has been replaced with a new KeywordPlanIdeaService (see https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/migration/services).

You can find examples for KeywordPlanIdeaService here: https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/samples/generate-keyword-ideas

Pay careful attention to how the code formats each selector field and using a helper class to format language and geotargeting codes. It's not the most intuitive way of passing paramters.
