What is the Google AdWords API?
The Google AdWords API lets developers build applications that interact directly with the AdWords platform. With these applications, advertisers and third parties can more efficiently and creatively manage their large or complex AdWords accounts and campaigns.
Flexible and functional. Use the AdWords API to build the application that meets your needs. Here are some possibilities:
- Automatically generate keywords, ad text, and destination URLs.
- Integrate AdWords data with your inventory system to manage campaigns based on stock.
- Develop additional tools and applications to help you manage accounts.
Develop in the language of your choice. The AdWords API SOAP interface is supported by all popular programming languages, including Java, PHP, Python, .NET, Perl, Ruby, and JavaScript.
Signing up is easy. All you need to get started is an active AdWords account. Once you have registered as a developer, you can access your AdWords API Center to manage your token and budget settings.
