Hi, The documentation lists a regexp to validate keywords against, but it matches everything, including terms the API refuses.
https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201409/AdGroupCriterionService.Keyword Text of this keyword (at most 80 characters and ten words). This field can > be selected using the value "KeywordText". This field can be filtered on. > Keyword > text must not contain NUL (code point 0x0) characters. This is checked by > the regular expression '[^\x00]*'. Our application sent a keyword containing square symbol (²) and it got refused with error KEYWORD_HAS_INVALID_CHARS. If no regexp is available, should we try to compile a list of invalid chars? A list of valid chars?
