Re: Uniqueness of CampaignName

Hi Mark,

You'd probably be better off identifying a Campaign by its ID, then there's no ambiguity. Also, if your campaign name changes in the GUI, any AdWords application that uses that name probably will cease to identify it.

Shown here in the Campaign Remove example.

```

function RemoveCampaignExample(AdWordsUser $user, $campaignId) {

  // Get the service, which loads the required classes.

  $campaignService = $user->GetService('CampaignService', ADWORDS_VERSION);

  // Create campaign with REMOVED status.

  $campaign = new Campaign();

  $campaign->id = $campaignId;

  $campaign->status = 'REMOVED';

```

Thanks

Is the field CampaignName (https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/reports/campaign-performance-report#campaignname) in the Campaign Performance Report unique?

Specifically, can I use it in a query to uniquely identify a campaign, or might I get more than one result back?

Finally, how can I tell from the documentation whether or no a report field is a unique identifier?

Thanks,

Mark
