Use googleAnalyticsR to get data about adwords campaigns

I am using the googleAnalyticsR package to retrieve google analytics data. If I connect to google analytics

ga_auth()

And get my account, web_prop_id and link_id I can check my adwords campaign with the following:

ga_adwords(account_id, webprop_id, linkId)

However, within this adwords campaign I want to see which ad-group gets which clicks. Any thoughts on how I can do this deepdive?

You can use the native GA reporting API to get click data from AdWords, details of all metrics and dimensions are here

It would be something like:

library(googleAnalyticsR)
ga_auth()
ad_data <- google_analytics(123456, date_range = c("2016-03-02", "today"), 
                             metrics = c("adClicks", "adCost"),
                             dimensions = c("medium","campaign"))
