Removing support for PHP 7 in the Google Ad Manager SOAP API Client Library for PHP

In August 2023, the Google Ad Manager SOAP API Client Library for PHP will start requiring PHP version 8.0 or higher. The version of the client library that adds support for Google Ad Manager API v202305 will be the last version that supports PHP 7. We’ll still fix security issues for this client library version until Google Ad Manager API v202305 is sunset, but no new features will be added.

All PHP 7 versions reached their end of life in 2022. The PHP development team no longer provides security fixes for these versions, so we highly recommend migrating to newer versions as soon as possible.

Here are useful resources to help with the PHP migration:

It also updates the ReportService for the upcoming "Ad Exchange Historical" to "Historical" report type conversion. Ad Exchange Historical dimensions and metrics are now available for Historical reports. Because of this change, several Ad Exchange dimensions and metrics have been renamed or replaced in the API.

To migrate, please refer to the migration guide and the reference documentation for v202202 and earlier. The reference documentation has been updated to show which values are deprecated and their replacements. Here’s an example:

Enumeration Description
AD_EXCHANGE_IMPRESSIONS Ad Impressions on mapped Ad Exchange properties. When multiple text ads fill a single display slot it is only counted once, when the top text ad is recognized. In these cases, the Ad Impression is attributed to the top text ad.
Deprecated as part of the "Ad Exchange Historical" to "Historical" report type conversion. Use AD_EXCHANGE_LINE_ITEM_LEVEL_IMPRESSIONS instead.
