Hello Albert,

You're not running into generic logic here, which is to say that your report is not being rejected due to some heuristic that sees includeZeroImpression, sees a date range of 8 years(!) and then automatically errors out. I was, for example, able to successfully run a cross-client report with the same basic options you used (for all campaigns, not just one specific id). Of course, I have significantly less than 8 years worth of data in my accounts, so specifying a startDay of 2000-01-01 probably didn't have the same effect for me.

I do think is that the report server looks at your particular account and makes the decision that it can't handle producing a zero impression report with those options. I'm assuming that you're able to get the report to run successfully when you, for instance, narrow the date range?

Cheers, -Jeff Posnick, AdWords API Team

Hi,

The trace below shows a performance report example (V11).

The request in brief is:

start date: 2000-01-01 end date: 2008-03-27 one campaign id specified cross client: true include zero impression: true report type: keyword aggregation: summary

The response returns an error: "Including Zero Impression Keywords will make your report too large to run".

The point is, the campaign is <b>really small</b> (several adgroups and about 30 keywords total).

What is the reason for the reports failure? (It's supposed to be really small) Is it the cross client+zero impression combination (although just 1 campaign specified)? Or is it some default check for large date range+zero impression?

Thanks in advance, Albert
