Hi everyone,
I am experiencing an issue with the native Google Ads connector in Looker Studio (formerly Data Studio). Suddenly, specific video campaign metrics have stopped fetching entirely.
-
Affected Metrics: Views, Avg. CPV (Cost Per View), and VTR (View-Through Rate).
-
The Issue: These fields are either showing up as blank/null in my tables, or returning an error indicating the data cannot be fetched from the source.
Steps I’ve already tried to troubleshoot:
-
Refreshed fields in the data source credentials.
-
Re-authenticated the Google Ads connector.
-
Confirmed that the underlying Google Ads account does have active video campaigns with plenty of view and CPV data for the selected date range.
-
Created a brand-new test report to see if the issue was isolated, but the metrics remain broken there as well.
Is anyone else experiencing a similar API or schema sync issue with video metrics this week?
If any Google Product Experts or engineers are monitoring this, could you please flag this as a potential bug with the connector pipeline? Any advice or workarounds would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
