Hi Josh, Thanks for your reply.
I think you misunderstood my query. I am getting the DUPLICATE_ADGROUP_NAME error when I am trying to create a new Adgroup so, in that case the MutateJob operation itself do not have the Adgroup ID. As we know, once we create the Adgroup, we get respective Adgroup ID from Adwords. In earlier API versions, we were getting Adgroup ID in the error response if we try to create a adgroup which already exist in the Adwords account. This behavior helped us to know the Adgroup ID of the duplicate Adgroup (without any additional step for finding the Adgroup ID), the automated script stores it and continue the insertion of the Ads and keywords in that Adgroup using the Adgroup ID. If this behavior is not changed in v201502, with the MutateJobService, there might be some technical issue in the API system. Can you please confirm it. For now, as a workaround, we have applied edits in our automated script which makes separate API call to get Adgroup ID of the respective Adgroup name, if MutateJobService gives the mentioned error. It will help if we can prevent this extra API call.
