Was the older API version still current?

No. Older versions such as v10 are outdated. This updated script uses v22 in reporting options.

Why compare against the same weekday?

It reduces noise from normal day-of-week seasonality and gives a more useful baseline than comparing only against yesterday.

Does this predict expected values precisely?

No. It uses a simple historical average, so it is better treated as an anomaly alert than a forecasting model.

Can the spreadsheet be blank for no email alerts?

Yes. If the email field is empty, the script will still write data to the spreadsheet but skip email notifications.

За този script

Account Anomaly Detector is a monitoring script that compares today’s performance against the same weekday across prior weeks to identify unusual drops or spikes. It is useful for surfacing tracking outages, budget issues, feed problems, policy disruption, or unexpected spend behaviour early in the day.

This version is updated from older Google examples to use a current report API version and more consistent metrics handling. It still relies on a spreadsheet-driven configuration model so non-technical users can control thresholds and recipients without editing code frequently.

The logic is intentionally simple: if today’s cumulative stats up to the current hour diverge materially from the historical weekday average, the script records the anomaly and optionally emails a warning. It is not a forecasting system, but it is a practical early-warning layer.

Implementation notes

Create a copy of your monitoring spreadsheet template and replace YOUR_SPREADSHEET_URL.
Set threshold cells for impressions, clicks, conversions, cost, number of weeks, and alert email.
Run the script manually once to validate named ranges and spreadsheet permissions.
Review output for a few days before trusting alerts operationally.
Schedule it hourly or at a cadence that matches your account monitoring routine.
