GetBidLandscapeByAdGroupIds Service Operation - Ad Insight

Given a list of existing ad groups, this operation returns for each a list of suggested bids and estimated performance statistics. You can use the landscape view of multiple bid points with estimated traffic for the same ad group to help make decisions about how to adjust your ad group level default bid to optimize for clicks, impressions, and cost. For example you might use the resulting data to visualize a clicks to cost curve or a bid to impressions curve.

The estimates are based on the last 7 days of performance data, and not a prediction or guarantee of future performance.

Note

This operation is for search campaigns using the enhanced CPC bid strategy.
