This is a question about the new BatchJobService <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201601/BatchJobService>, replacement to MutateJobService <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201601/MutateJobService> .
I am using the v201601 Python library which is very well explained and documented. Short question: - Is it possible for the BatchJobService to be "DONE", or "CANCELLED". Without a corresponding change in the batch job object which was selected by Id. Long explanation: I used the BatchJobService to update the status 2701 campaigns all at once. I was able to poll the status using the selector and predicates EQUALS <batch_job_id> with an exponential drop off as recommended in the example This worked reliably most of the time, and completed in 30 - 40s on average. Occasionally, the exact same request would complete in 3 minutes with a status of "AWAITING _FILE" or "ACTIVE" I believe the operations usually completed eventually, but once in a while they did not. This problem is difficult to replicate as the service usually works perfectly, but I will try to log all the interations in the future so I can provide more details. Long Question: Assuming: - I have polled the correct batch job Id - I have indeed uploaded operations to the batch job - I polled the batch job status exactly as recommended in the documentation 1 - Is it possible for the job to take a very long time occaisionally? And rarely fail for reasons unknown, and maybe not change the status after failing or completing? 2 - Is there a maximum waiting time (maybe it's in the docs and I missed it) at which I should stop polling the status and assume the job has failed, or double check with the account on the Adwords website. -- -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog and Google+: https://googleadsdeveloper.blogspot.com/ https://plus.google.com/+GoogleAdsDevelopers/posts =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.
