Exporting Google Ads data takes just a few clicks once you know where to look. Google offers three built-in paths, each suited for a different use case. Here's exactly how each one works.

Three Ways to Export Your Google Ads Report

Per Google's Ads Help Center, you can pull reports from the statistics table, from Google Ads Editor, or from the Report Editor. Each method fits a different workflow.

Method 1: Download from the Statistics Table

This is the fastest option for most advertisers. Per Google's Ads Help Center, click the download icon in the upper right corner above the statistics table. Select "Download," pick your format, and the file downloads immediately.

Works for any view: campaigns, ad groups, keywords, or ads. No setup needed.

Method 2: Export Using Google Ads Editor

Google Ads Editor handles bulk exports well. Go to Account > Export in the menu. You can export the whole account, selected campaigns and ad groups, the current view, or a custom date range.

Use this when you need a full account snapshot. Or when you're pulling data from several campaigns at once.

Method 3: Create and Download Custom Reports

For deeper analysis, use the Report Editor. Per Google's Ads Help Center, go to Report Editor inside the Campaigns menu. Select "Custom" and choose a report type. Drag and drop elements into the row section to build exactly the view you need.

Then download it, or schedule it for automatic delivery.

Supported File Formats

Google Ads exports in six formats. Per Google's Ads Help Center, the available options are CSV, Excel (XLSX), TSV, XML, PDF, and Google Sheets.

CSV, Excel, XML, TSV, and PDF

All six formats are available directly from the download menu.

  • CSV — plain text, works with any spreadsheet tool
  • Excel (XLSX) — formatted and ready for pivot tables
  • TSV — tab-separated, useful for data pipelines
  • XML — structured data for developers or API integrations
  • PDF — a shareable snapshot, not editable
  • Google Sheets — exports directly to a live Google Sheet

When to Use Each Format

Use CSV or XLSX for most reporting workflows. Use PDF when sharing results with stakeholders who don't need raw data. Choose Google Sheets for real-time team collaboration. Pick XML or TSV when piping data into a custom tool or database.

Pro Tips for Exporting

A few small habits before you export make a big difference to the data you get out.

Schedule Automated Reports

Google Ads lets you schedule recurring reports and deliver them by email automatically. Build the report once, set the delivery schedule, and it arrives on time every week. No manual exports required.

This works well for weekly performance reviews or client reporting.

Customize Columns Before Export

The export only includes the columns visible in your current view. Adjust your columns before downloading to keep the file clean and focused on what matters. Go to Columns > Modify columns to add or remove metrics before you click download.

Segment Your Data

Segments break data down by device, time, network, or conversion action. Apply a segment before exporting and the segmented rows are included automatically. This turns a flat performance table into a genuinely useful analysis.

Track and Optimize Across Channels

Exporting from Google Ads gives you the raw numbers. But piecing together performance across channels still eats time when your data lives in multiple places.
