Google Ads / API Reference
gads_ad_performance
Google Ads tool (extended/low-level coverage). For common tasks prefer the RECOMMENDED google_ads_* actions; use these only for advanced operations those don't cover. Get Google Ads individual ad performance: clicks, impressions, CTR, conversions per ad. Args: start_date: Start date YYYY-MM-DD. Defaults to 28 days ago. end_date: End date YYYY-MM-DD. Defaults to today. customer_id: Google Ads customer ID. Leave blank to use default. campaign_id: Filter by campaign ID. Leave blank for all. row_limit: Max ads. Default 25.
This is a read-only tool: it returns ad performance for your Google Ads account. It changes nothing.
