Hi All,
The codes which Microsoft adCenter API Version 6 uses for targeting ad groups or campaigns to specific countries/regions have been documented during Country Codes.
If we wish to see a codes for states/provinces inside of a country, click a specific nation inside of a Country Codes topic. For example, United States.
Within a nation topic, we can click a states/provinces to establish a metro area codes as well as city codes. For example, inside of a California (United States) topic, you'll see metro area codes for Anaheim, Los Angeles, San Diego (and alternative metro areas), as well as you'll additionally see a cities as well as city codes inside of those metro areas.
For some-more report about targeting by country, state/province, metro area as well as city, as well as additionally by commercial operation as well as geographical location, see Location Targeting.
adCenter API V5 upheld nation as well as metro area targeting (but not state/province as well as city targeting). Note which V5 used numeric values for nation as well as metro areas codes, whilst V6 uses content fibre codes for a countries, states/provinces, metro areas, as well as cities.
If we would similar to a tender XML used for a country, state/province, metro area as well as city codes, we can download it from http://community.microsoftadvertising.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Components.SiteFiles/APIDOC/locationsXML.zip. Note a XML contains a V6 codes, as well as additionally a V5 metro area numeric codes. For example, in a following dash taken from a tender XML, a Code value "Calgary, AB CA" is a Version 6 metro area formula for Calgary, whilst the MetroAreaId value "148315336687484928" is a Version 5 metro area formula for Calgary. The numeric MetroAreaId values do not request to V6.
<MetroArea Name="Calgary" Code="Calgary, AB CA" MetroAreaId="148315336687484928">
Thank you.
