Announcing AdMob API v1 General Availability

Today we’re excited to announce the general availability v1 release of the new AdMob API. It allows publishers to programmatically get information on their AdMob account.

The AdMob API v1 release offers the following benefits for app developers compared with the existing AdSense API used to access AdMob data:

  • Retrieve metrics that are consistent with how the AdMob UI defines and calculates them
  • Retrieve mediation reports previously not available through the AdSense API

How can I get started?

The AdMob API is now available to all AdMob users. You can use the Getting Started guide and the client libraries to get started.

If you’re already working with the AdSense API, please refer to our migration guide to get started. Please make plans to migrate to the new AdMob API, as we will sunset access to AdMob data via the AdSense API in the fall of 2021.

If you have any questions, please contact us via the AdMob API Developer Forum. We will be able to provide suggestions on how to best migrate your workflow. We look forward to hearing your feedback.

Announcing v5 of the Google Ads API beta

Today, we’re announcing the v5 release of the Google Ads API beta. To use the v5 features, you will need to upgrade your client libraries and client code. The updated client libraries and code examples will be published next week. For more information on breaking changes, see the migration guide.

Here are the highlights:
  • Return metrics for entities not formally supported in the API, such as Discovery campaigns, are now available. These entities will show UNKNOWN enum values returned. See the release notes for more details.
  • New request parameter to opt into returning all mutable fields in the response during a mutate.
  • The API is moving towards using field presence such as optional string and optional double instead of wrapper types such as StringValue and DoubleValue. Your code will be easier to use and simplifies the API with payloads that are significantly smaller. Approximately half of our resources have been updated in this release. The full list is in the migration guide, and our code examples have been updated. The rest of the resources will change to field presence in a future release.
  • Subfields of AdGroupAd.policy_summary are now selectable. Non-repeated subfields of AdGroupAd.policy_summary are now filterable.
  • Support for Keyword Planner:
