Hi Team,
I hope you're doing well.
While working with the shopping_product resource in the Google Ads API, we
observed a few inconsistencies and limitations that we’d like to clarify.
We’ve summarized the issues below and would appreciate your input or
confirmation on each:
------------------------------
🔍 Issues Observed
1.
*Dereferenced Products' Performance Missing*
If a product drove performance via a campaign (e.g., Campaign A) but was
later dereferenced from that campaign using inventory filters, *will its
historical performance mapping to that campaign appear in the
shopping_product report*?
2.
*Campaign ID Filter Inconsistency*
Queries using the syntax campaign.id = {value} fail with error -
{ "shoppingProductError": "MISSING_CAMPAIGN_FILTER" }
, while using the full resource name (e.g., shopping_product.campaign
= "customers/{accountId}/campaigns/{id}") works.
➤ *Is there a reason for this behavior, and should we always prefer full
resource names over IDs?*
3.
*Multi-Campaign Filtering Error*
Attempting to filter by multiple campaigns results in the following
error:
{ "shoppingProductError": "MISSING_CAMPAIGN_FILTER" }
This was triggered by the query:
SELECT shopping_product.campaign, shopping_product.item_id,
metrics.impressions FROM shopping_product WHERE shopping_product.item_id =
'213126' AND shopping_product.campaign IN (
'customers/5017448580/campaigns/18267422150',
'customers/5017448580/campaigns/11762092245' )
➤ *Is multi-campaign filtering not supported for this resource, or is
this a bug?*
------------------------------
We’re currently trying to use shopping_product to enrich product-level
insights, and these limitations are blocking some of our use cases. Any
guidance or recommendations would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Best Regards,
Sravanthi Reddy
