Today, we’re announcing the v23.1 release of the Google Ads API. To use the new v23.1 features, you must upgrade your client libraries and client code. All the updated client libraries and code examples have been published.

We are also releasing minor versions v20.2, v21.1 and v22.1 of the Google Ads API to add additional support for the EU Political Ads Regulation.

Here are some of the key features in this release:

• Added additional fields to support the EU Political Ads Regulation in the Google Ads API. The Campaign.missing_eu_political_advertising_declaration field supports querying and filtering campaigns that are missing declarations about whether they contain political advertising targeted towards the EU. The Customer.contains_eu_political_advertising field retrieves the account level declaration status of whether they contain political advertising targeted towards the EU.
• Added the YouTubeVideoUploadService to support uploading and managing videos on YouTube, and the YouTubeVideoUpload resource to support fetching upload status and metadata.
• Added support for text guidelines to the Campaign resource, which can be used with Performance Max and Search campaigns to programmatically control AI-generated text assets.
• Added new metrics that report how many users saw your ad at least two, three, four, five or ten times: unique_users_two_plus, unique_users_three_plus, unique_users_four_plus, unique_users_five_plus, and unique_users_ten_plus.
• Added ConversionActionCategory.YOUTUBE_FOLLOW_ON_VIEWS to support tracking users who watch an ad and later watch a video from the same channel.
