How to get Cancelled Accounts via Google Ads API?

Question

Using Google Ads API "Get Account Hierarchy" to get all accounts. https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/account-management/get-account-hierarchy?hl=en

Found out that canceled accounts are not being retrieved.

I do see the canceled accounts are being reported in the UI and in their Google Data Studio connector. I guess both use the old AdWords API.

Is there a way to fetch and report canceled accounts via Google Ads API? Is it recommended to use the old AdWords API?

Answer 1

Google Ads team answered: Unfortunately, cancelled accounts will not be returned in either of the APIs. For more information, you may refer to this blog post (https://ads-developers.googleblog.com/2018/03/changes-to-inactive-adwords-accounts.html). I hope this helps.
