For web developers that need some context when working with the Adwords API to build custom applications, Google has a library of examples to work from.  The client libraries code examples for Google Adwords API has undergone numerous revisions recently. This library is useful for web developers that need help troubleshooting or just to understand the context around a particular issue....oh ya, and also they are great for learning from scratch as well.

Recent changes to the Adwords API include:

  • Code examples are now oriented around typical use cases
  • Number of input parameters was reduced -- forget those specific specific object IDs
  • For each example the code is wrapped into a function which can be called with parameters.
  • Best practices are now included in the examples + comments!
