Basic Example

import { GoogleAdsApi, types, enums } from 'google-ads-api'

// 1. Create a new client with your credentials
const client = new GoogleAdsApi({
    client_id: '<CLIENT_ID>',
    client_secret: '<CLIENT_SECRET>',
    developer_token: '<DEVELOPER_TOKEN>',
})

// 2. Load a customer with a valid CID & authentication
const customer = client.Customer({
    customer_account_id: '<CUSTOMER_ACCOUNT_ID>',
    refresh_token: '<REFRESH_TOKEN>',
})

// 3. Use the query method for querying customer data
const response = await customer.query(`
    SELECT 
        ad_group.id,
        ad_group.name,
        metrics.clicks,
        segments.device
    FROM 
        ad_group
    WHERE 
        metrics.impressions > 10
        AND segments.date DURING LAST_30_DAYS
    LIMIT 5
`)

// 4. Inspect the data and benefit from ts definitions
for (const row of response) {
    const { ad_group, metrics } = row
    if (ad_group.status === enums.AdGroupStatus.ENABLED) {
        console.log(`Ad group "${ad_group.name}" had ${metrics.clicks} clicks.`)
    }
}

// 5. Create a new campaign
const campaign = {
    name: 'New Campaign',
    campaign_budget: 'customers/123/campaignBudgets/123',
    advertising_channel_type: enums.AdvertisingChannelType.SEARCH,
    status: enums.CampaignStatus.PAUSED,
}

const { results } = await customer.campaigns.create(campaign)

const new_campaign_resource_name = results[0]

// 6. ...modify it...
await customer.campaigns.update({
    resource_name : new_campaign_resource_name,
    name : 'New Campaign EDITED' 
})

// 7. ...and delete it.
await customer.campaigns.delete(new_campaign_resource_name)
