GetEstimatedPositionByKeywordIds Service Operation - Ad Insight

Gets the estimated position in the search results if the specified bid value had been used for the keywords in the last 7 days. In addition, the operation provides estimates of clicks, average cost per click (CPC), and impressions that the keywords could have generated with the estimated bid.

Note

This operation is for search campaigns using the enhanced CPC bid strategy.
