GetKeywordOpportunities Service Operation - Ad Insight

Gets a list of keyword suggestions that are relevant to the specified ad group. The keyword suggestion also includes a suggested bid value.

Request Elements

The GetKeywordOpportunitiesRequest object defines the body and header elements of the service operation request. The elements must be in the same order as shown in the Request SOAP.

Note

Unless otherwise noted below, all request elements are required.

Request Body Elements

Element Description Data Type
AdGroupId The identifier of the ad group to get keyword suggestions for.

The following restrictions apply to the specified ad group:

- Its language must be set to English.

- Its distribution medium must include Search.

- It should contain keywords and ads. The operation will suggest keywords only if the ad group contains one or more ads and keywords; the more keywords and ads that the ad group contains, the richer the set of suggested keywords will be.

If AdGroupId is nil or empty, the operation will return all keyword opportunities for the specified campaign.
long
CampaignId The identifier of the campaign that owns the specified ad group.

If the CampaignId element is nil or empty, then the AdGroupId must also be nil or empty, and the operation will return all keyword opportunities for the account.
long
OpportunityType Determines the type or types of keyword opportunities that you want.

You may include multiple values as flags. How you specify multiple flags depends on the programming language that you use. For example, C# treats these values as flag values and Java treats them as an array of strings. The SOAP should include a string that contains a space-delimited list of values for example, <OpportunityType>BroadMatch CampaignContext</OpportunityType>.
