Hi Eric, this method does not work, it seems that the GeoLocationService needs at least the streetAddress to get a geolocation.
<SOAP-ENV:Body> <ns1:get> <ns1:selector xmlns:ns1="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/ cm/v200909" xsi:type="ns1:GeoLocationSelector"> <ns1:addresses xmlns:ns1="https://adwords.google.com/api/ adwords/cm/v200909" xsi:type="ns1:Address"> <ns1:cityName>Bottrop</ns1:cityName> <ns1:postalCode>46242</ns1:postalCode> <ns1:countryCode>DE</ns1:countryCode> </ns1:addresses> </ns1:selector> </ns1:get> </SOAP-ENV:Body> leads to <soap:Body> <getResponse xmlns="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/cm/ v200909"> <rval xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="InvalidGeoLocation"> <GeoLocation.Type>InvalidGeoLocation</GeoLocation.Type> </rval> </getResponse> </soap:Body> I want to try to get the GeoPoint of a cityName (minus the zip code).
