Google is discontinuing its developer support forums for Google Ads, Google Ads Scripts, and Campaign Manager 360 API in 2026, marking a significant shift in how developers receive technical assistance. This decision comes as Google aims to streamline support channels and enhance the efficiency of issue resolution. The company will transition these forums to read-only archives later in 2026, with no new posts accepted after January 28, 2026. This change will impact how developers troubleshoot issues, as all support will be directed to official channels, requiring them to adapt their workflows and provide more detailed information. Google emphasizes the importance of comprehensive diagnostic details in tickets to expedite resolutions. Developers seeking updates, events, or general discussion can now turn to the 'Google Advertising and Measurement Community' Discord server. While this move may centralize support, it may also reduce the availability of community-driven knowledge. Google's announcement details the sunset of these forums, highlighting the transition to standardized, direct support. This change reflects Google's commitment to improving technical support and ensuring developers have access to the necessary resources for their Google Ads-related projects.
