Introduction

Google Ads is an online advertising platform developed by Google, where advertisers pay to display brief advertisements, service offerings, product listings, video content, and generate mobile application installs within the Google ad network to web users. Google Ads multi report source plugin would allow users to retrieve all of the Google Ads reports from their Google Ads account in batch mode.

User Expectations

• User would like to all of the Google Ads reports that are available for their Customer Id associated with the client account
• User do not need to specify report type while setting up the configuration as all of the available reports will be retrieved
• User should be able to use advanced options available in Google Ads API such as skip report header
• User should be able to pick one of the multi-load sinks such as Google BigQuery multi-table sink, Google Cloud Storage multi-file sink etc. to load Ads reports.

...

Plugin will be implemented using official googleads-java-lib, Output schema must be automatically generated from selected fields and report type. Please note that this plugin would not allow users to select report type (and hence the fields), so all
report types and their associated fields will be retrieved.
