Calling APIs with Google Cloud Functions 

Google Cloud Functions provide a serverless environment to build and connect cloud services, making it a quick-to-set-up resource to connect your Ad Manager data to the other systems you use every day. In this talk, we’ll use Cloud Functions to create a nightly task that fetches any new LineItem data from your network and a Report Bot that seamlessly integrates your latest network data in a Hangouts Chat thread.

Unlocking the Potential of Scheduled Reports

New report features are added all the time, but API releases are quarterly. If you've ever been patiently waiting for a new Dimension or Metric to appear in the release notes, you may be able to leverage scheduled reports to get the data you need. This talk walks through the general setup of this solution and discusses the pros and cons, complete with a demonstration of nightly report data being piped into BigQuery.
