GAQL Query Patterns

Ready-to-use GAQL (Google Ads Query Language) query templates for common PPC analysis tasks.

What This Skill Deliberately Does NOT Do

Run the queries. These are copy-paste templates, not a runner — paste them into your own API client, Google Ads Scripts, or `google-ads-query` to actually execute and export.
Mutate anything. Every template is a read-only SELECT; nothing here changes an account.
Cover change-history queries. Pulling what changed and when needs a finite date window and a LIMIT, and lives in `change-history-checker` — a windowless change query won't run.
Diagnose the results. The "Use for" and "Interpreting results" notes point you at the analysis; the actual root-causing lives in the diagnostic skills (e.g. `impression-share-diagnostics` for the impression-share query).

Campaign Queries

7-Day Campaign Spend Analysis

sql

SELECT
    campaign.id,
    campaign.name,
    campaign.status,
    campaign.advertising_channel_type,
    campaign.bidding_strategy_type,
    campaign_budget.amount_micros,
    campaign_budget.explicitly_shared,
    metrics.cost_micros,
    metrics.impressions,
    metrics.clicks,
    metrics.conversions,
    metrics.conversions_value
FROM campaign
WHERE segments.date DURING LAST_7_DAYS
ORDER BY campaign.name

Use for: Recent spend analysis, budget utilization, campaign health checks

Month-to-Date Pacing

sql

SELECT
    campaign.id,
    campaign.name,
    campaign_budget.amount_micros,
    metrics.cost_micros
FROM campaign
WHERE segments.date DURING THIS_MONTH
ORDER BY campaign.name

Use for: Monthly pacing calculations, budget tracking

Campaign Settings Audit

sql

SELECT
    campaign.id,
    campaign.name,
    campaign.status,
    campaign.advertising_channel_type,
    campaign.bidding_strategy_type,
    campaign.target_cpa.target_cpa_micros,
    campaign.target_roas.target_roas,
    campaign_budget.amount_micros,
    campaign_budget.explicitly_shared
FROM campaign
WHERE campaign.status = 'ENABLED'

Use for: Configuration audits, bidding strategy checks, budget review

Impression Share

Search Impression Share Analysis

sql

SELECT
    campaign.id,
    campaign.name,
    campaign.advertising_channel_type,
    metrics.search_impression_share,
    metrics.search_budget_lost_impression_share,
    metrics.search_rank_lost_impression_share,
    metrics.impressions
FROM campaign
WHERE segments.date DURING LAST_7_DAYS
  AND campaign.advertising_channel_type IN ('SEARCH', 'PERFORMANCE_MAX')
ORDER BY metrics.search_budget_lost_impression_share DESC

Use for: Diagnosing underspending, identifying budget constraints vs. quality issues

Interpreting results:

High Budget Lost IS → increase budget to capture more impressions
High Rank Lost IS → quality/relevance issue (not a budget problem)
Both high → budget is primary constraint, but quality also needs work

Search Terms

Search Term Report (Last 30 Days)

ORDER BY metrics.cost_micros DESC

Use for: Negative keyword discovery, search term audits, intent analysis

High-Spend Non-Converting Search Terms

sql

SELECT
    search_term_view.search_term,
    campaign.name,
    metrics.clicks,
    metrics.cost_micros,
    metrics.conversions

Key Field Notes

Micros Conversion

The API returns monetary values in micros (1,000,000 = $1):

50000000 micros = $50.00
1234567 micros = $1.23

Always divide by 1,000,000 when displaying to users.

Impression Share Returns Decimals

The API returns impression share as decimals (0.0 - 1.0), NOT percentages:

API value 0.2464 = 24.64% actual impression share
Always multiply by 100 when displaying

Metrics Require Date Segmentation

Any query with metrics.* fields MUST include a WHERE segments.date clause. Without it, the query will fail.

Impression Share is Search/PMax Only

search_impression_share, search_budget_lost_impression_share, and search_rank_lost_impression_share are only available for Search and Performance Max campaigns.

AND vs OR

GAQL doesn't support OR. Use IN instead:

sql

-- Wrong
WHERE campaign.status = 'ENABLED' OR campaign.status = 'PAUSED'

-- Correct
WHERE campaign.status IN ('ENABLED', 'PAUSED')

When to Load Other Skills

Skill	When
`google-ads-query`	To run these templates against an account and export the results to CSV — this skill is the templates, that one is the runner
`change-history-checker`	For "what changed and when" queries — they require a finite date window (90-day / 30-day) and a `LIMIT` that these general templates don't carry
`impression-share-diagnostics`	To interpret the impression-share query — Search IS, Budget Lost IS, and Rank Lost IS root-causing lives there

Several skills reach for these templates when they outgrow their own — `underspending-investigation`, `budget-recommendation-calculator`, and `mcc-hack-audit` all point back here for custom GAQL.
