Can't create a location sync asset set with a maps_location_set

[Andreas Gabor]

Hi,

I'm following 
https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/assets/location-assets#add-location-assets
 
and trying the use case:

   1. 
      1. 
         - Set maps_location_set if you want to manually add locations 
         using Place IDs 
         
<https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/web-service/place-id>
         .
      
here's my request:

mutate_operations {
  asset_set_operation {
    create {
      name: "TestAsset"
      type: LOCATION_SYNC
      status: ENABLED
      location_set {
        location_ownership_type: AFFILIATE
        maps_location_set {
          maps_locations {
            place_id: "ChIJQbpW9fV8lUcRGnDfEihRplI"
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

the response is:

errors {
  error_code {
    field_error: VALUE_MUST_BE_UNSET
  }
  message: "The field cannot be set."
  location {
    field_path_elements {
      field_name: "mutate_operations"
      index: 0
    }
    field_path_elements {
      field_name: "asset_set_operation"
    }
    field_path_elements {
      field_name: "create"
    }
    field_path_elements {
      field_name: "location_set"
    }
  }
}
request_id: "FyBdmRVB1IzIrwoVDGOhOQ"

which doesn't make sense to me. if I leave location_set out I'm getting the 
opposite error:

errors {
  error_code {
    field_error: REQUIRED
  }
  message: "The required field was not present."
  location {
    field_path_elements {
      field_name: "mutate_operations"
      index: 0
    }
    field_path_elements {
      field_name: "asset_set_operation"
    }
    field_path_elements {
      field_name: "create"
    }
    field_path_elements {
      field_name: "location_set"
    }
  }
}
request_id: "laSfUZi1RSsH37RpOhOa0Q"

and if I set a ChainLocationSet instead of the MapsLocationSet it all works.

Here's my code in Java:

AssetSet.newBuilder() .setName("TestAsset") 
.setType(AssetSetTypeEnum.AssetSetType.LOCATION_SYNC) 
.setStatus(AssetSetStatusEnum.AssetSetStatus.ENABLED) 
.setLocationSet(LocationSet.newBuilder() 
.setLocationOwnershipType(LocationOwnershipTypeEnum.LocationOwnershipType.AFFILIATE)
 
// this doesn't work .setMapsLocationSet(MapsLocationSet.newBuilder() 
.addMapsLocations(MapsLocationInfo.newBuilder() 
.setPlaceId("ChIJQbpW9fV8lUcRGnDfEihRplI") ) ) // this works // 
.setChainLocationSet(ChainSet.newBuilder() // 
.setRelationshipType(ChainRelationshipTypeEnum.ChainRelationshipType.AUTO_DEALERS)
 
// .addAllChains( // 
List.of(ChainFilter.newBuilder().setChainId(225757).build()) // ) // ) 
.build() );

I'm using "com.google.api-ads" % "google-ads" % "34.0.0"

Cheers
Andreas
