Introducing ad extensions in AdWords scripts Posted: 16 Sep 2013 11:58 AM PDT We are glad to announce support for upgraded ad extensions in AdWords scripts. Ad extensions give potential customers more reasons to click your ad by including additional business information upfront such as your address and phone number or more website page links. We currently support sitelinks, call extensions, and app extensions in Scripts. You can refer to our documentation to learn more about this feature as well as get sample code snippets. We currently support the following capabilities in AdWords scripts: Create various ad extensions at account level. Associate ad extensions with campaigns and ad groups. Modify existing ad extensions. Remove an ad extension's association with a campaign or ad group. Retrieve stats for various ad extensions at account, campaign or ad group level. Keep in mind that We only support ad extensions in Feeds created by the AdWords system. If you created a Feed using the AdWords API, then these items won't be retrieved by AdWords scripts. You may not delete ad extensions at the account level. You can only delete its association with a campaign or an ad group. We hope you enjoy this new feature. If you have questions or feedback, please visit us on our official forum.  - Anash P. Oommen, AdWords Scripts Team

Announcing the Sunset of ClientLogin in the Adwords and DFP APIs Posted: 16 Sep 2013 09:24 AM PDT ClientLogin support has been deprecated across Google in favor of the security enhanced OAuth2 authentication mechanism. AdWords and DFP will be sunsetting ClientLogin support in all API versions to be released, starting in 2014. To ensure uniform, and high, standards of privacy and security for our advertisers and publishers, we will support only OAuth2 in the future. All current AdWords and DFP API versions, and those released during rest of year in 2013 will continue to support ClientLogin. The client libraries will retain support for ClientLogin authentication until 2013 API versions are sunset. 2013 AdWords API versions are expected to be sunset in June 2014. We will have a follow up announcement for DFP APIs. For uninterrupted use of the APIs, please migrate to OAuth2 as soon as possible. To help you migrate, we've put together a comprehensive set of OAuth2 information including a video overview, links to documentation and a full list of client library resources. With so many users already migrated, most questions have been answered in either the AdWords API forum or the DFP API forum. To get face-to-face assistance, attend one of our upcoming Office Hours sessions focusing on ClientLogin to OAuth2 migration. - Paul Matthews, AdWords API Team
