The AdWords API team is pleased to announce a series of videos geared towards developers who are new to the AdWords API. These tutorials, and the companion website, http://awapiday.googlepages.com/, start with an overview of AdWords and the API, and then walk users through the steps involved in creating campaigns, ad groups, ads, and keywords from their own code.
The videos are broken down into nine parts:
