We’re bringing you a significant update regarding the Keywords for Category endpoints in Keywords Data Bing Ads API and the data related to Bing products and service categories.
What’s Changing
Due to the closure of Bing Ads’ Ad Insight Keyword APIs, which served as the data source for the Keywords for Category and related endpoints in our Bing Ads API, the following endpoints are now deprecated:
https://api.dataforseo.com/v3/keywords_data/bing/categories
https://api.dataforseo.com/v3/keywords_data/bing/keywords_for_category/live
https://api.dataforseo.com/v3/keywords_data/bing/keywords_for_category/task_post
What to Expect
If you attempt to request these endpoints, you will receive the following error message:
"status_code": 50304,
"status_message": "This function temporarily unavailable. Please contact support for more information."
Furthermore, please note that the categories array in the responses of the endpoints below is now considered a legacy field and will always be null:
