After reading several similar questions from this forum, I think I understand the problem.
1) The documentation of CustomerSyncService is dreadful. It is specially difficult to instantiate a DateTimeRange which will not return an INVALID_TIMEZONE error. It is also specially difficult to understand that changes are grouped into the highest possible granularity level. If *n* > 1 AdGroups were modified, CustomerSyncService can only tell that the Campaign was modified but it cannot say which AdGroups were modified. 2) I cannot use the CustomerSyncService to recover the wrongly removed AdGroupAds because many AdGroup's were modified in unison (removing several Ads from each AdGroup). If the "Change History" service from the UI worked propertly I would still have a chance to recover the deleted Ads I'll be waiting for a reply on this issue if possible, Thanks El jueves, 11 de junio de 2015, 15:00:24 (UTC-3), sebastia...@despegar.com escribió: > > Hello, > I want to use the CustomerSyncService to recover deleted AdGroupAd's.
