Resource Names
The unique identifier for an entity in the Google Ads API is called a resource
name, and is represented as a string with a predictable format. If you know the
constituent components of a resource name, you can use this utility to generate
the final resource name.
ResourceNames class
The ResourceNames utility is a way to construct the resource name of an entity
if you know all of the relevant IDs related to that entity. For example, a
campaign resource name is in the format
customers/{customer_id}/campaigns/{campaign_id}, so if you know the customer
ID and the campaign ID, you can use the ResourceNames utility to construct the
full resource name as follows:
my $resource_name =
Google::Ads::GoogleAds::V19::Utils::ResourceNames::campaign($customer_id,
$campaign_id);
You can use other entity names as well, which take different IDs depending on
the final form of the resource name.
