google_ads_search_terms_report
Lists actual user search queries that triggered ads over a reporting window, with impressions, clicks, cost, conversions, and CTR, filterable by campaign or ad group.
Instructions
List actual user search queries that triggered ads in the account over a reporting window. Returns one row per search term shaped as {search_term, metrics}, where the metrics object contains impressions, clicks, cost_micros, cost (currency-formatted), conversions, and ctr. The rows are filterable by campaign_id and/or ad_group_id but those IDs are NOT echoed back in the output — scope your query before calling. Read-only. Use this for raw query logs when you need to eyeball the terms yourself. For rule-based add/exclude candidates use google_ads_search_terms_review; for intent-class distribution use google_ads_search_terms_analyze; for campaign-level aggregates without query breakdown use google_ads_performance_report.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| period | No | Reporting window for the metrics. Default 'LAST_30_DAYS'. Use a shorter window (LAST_7_DAYS / LAST_14_DAYS) when diagnosing recent changes; use LAST_90_DAYS for trend baselines. Also accepts an explicit range — "YYYY-MM-DD..YYYY-MM-DD" (the spelling Meta Ads takes too) or, in GAQL spelling, "BETWEEN 'YYYY-MM-DD' AND 'YYYY-MM-DD'" — both endpoints inclusive, in the account's time zone, for a window no trailing constant can reach (e.g. a single past calendar month). One asymmetry to know about: every constant except LAST_90_DAYS is resolved by Google Ads in the account's reporting time zone, whereas LAST_90_DAYS has no API constant and is expanded by mureo into the 90 days ending yesterday **on the server's date**, so its edges can differ by a day when the server and the account are in different zones. Pass an explicit range when the exact boundary matters. | |
| ad_group_id | No | Restrict results to a single ad group by numeric ID. Omit to include all ad groups under the campaign filter (or the entire account if campaign_id is also omitted). | |
| campaign_id | No | Restrict results to a single campaign by numeric ID. Omit to include all campaigns. | |
| customer_id | No | Google Ads customer ID as a 10-digit string without dashes (e.g. '1234567890'). Optional — falls back to GOOGLE_ADS_CUSTOMER_ID / GOOGLE_ADS_LOGIN_CUSTOMER_ID from the configured credentials when omitted. |
