Hello, Last time, I've noticed, that *ConversionOptimizer* bidding strategy disappeared from AdWords UI. In documentation it is written:
> * Conversion Optimizer is now Target CPA bidding* (source > <https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/2390684?hl=en)>) > > Almost great, but! When I enable *Target CPA* in AdWords UI, and then fetch it via API, I get: 'BiddingScheme.Type' => 'TargetCpaBiddingScheme', 'biddingStrategyType' => 'TARGET_CPA' instead of *ConversionOptimizer*, so this is not about naming convention change only. What even more important, this kind of *Target CPA* strategy (set directly in new AdWords UI) is being returned by API as an "anonymous strategy" (there is no StrategyId). It is NOT possible to set *TargetCPA* strategy using API as an "anonymous strategy" (INVALID_ANONYMOUS_BIDDING_STRATEGY_TYPE error described also here <https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=pl#!searchin/adwords-api/INVALID_ANONYMOUS_BIDDING_STRATEGY_TYPE/adwords-api/zEGTCOHFWbg/wUiXW0qcKlAJ> ). However, *ConversionOptimizer* itself can be still correctly set using API. The question is, what are the plans regarding ConversionOptimizer? Shall we still use it or it will be removed soon? Moreover, regarding *TargetCPA*, it is written in API docs: > *This is similar to the ConversionOptimizerBiddingScheme but does not > support user-entered AdGroup-level target CPA bids, but rather a > strategy-wide average CPA target.* > (source <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201601/CampaignService.TargetCpaBiddingScheme> ) But, it is still possible to set Max CPA on adgroup level, when the *Target CPA* had been choosen in AdWords API (anonymous one). Does it mean, all those Max CPA will be ignored and will not be effective?
