We implemented the RMF of creating and modifying ProductDimension trees with subdivisions and units long ago. However, specifying the tree is very awkward in our UI as the user has to enter everything manually. And I mean *everything*, from dimension value of product partition to refine its parent, up to writing down the caseValue of units, be it a Brand or a ProductOfferId. Now, of course no one would ever use our UI to create or modify the ProductDimension tree, it's done in AdWords and synched with our tool.
The AdWords UI allows to nicely select with some mouse clicks which dimension should be used to split up next, and most importantly, which values to specify for single biddable units. I think, knowledge of these structure datas is absolutely essental, but I didn't find API services which give me this information. I always thought this RMF was a total waste of time to implement (not only for us, but for everyone complying with RMF) to be blunt because it's just not possible to create an even remotely usable UI this way.
Since we want to delve deeper in the Shopping campaigns now, including attempts at better lead optimization, I am really curious (and hope so) if I made an oversight and those infos were out there all the time? Any help to get deeper product structure information is very appreciated. (And actually I feel this is a MUST in the API, since otherwise AdWords simply has an unfair advantage to competitors to put it this way.)
