Hello,
although up to now everything worked fine, we now receive the same API
error (BiddingErrors.INVALID_BID) but only for one specific google shopping
unit.
In our eyes it should be definitely the correct product UNIT type and the
CPC in this case is set to 2,07€. Nevertheless we get the following error
message:
<errorList><errors
xsi:type="BiddingErrors"><fieldPath>operations[1].operand.biddingStrategyConfiguration.bids</fieldPath>
*<trigger>CpcBid{bid=0.000000, contentBid=null,
cpcBidSource=null}</trigger>*
<errorString>BiddingErrors.INVALID_BID</errorString><ApiError.Type>BiddingErrors</ApiError.Type><reason>INVALID_BID</reason></errors></errorList>
It would be very kind if you or someone else in the API team can help us
find our what is the problem in this case.
Our BatchJob ID is 315190981.
Many thanks in advance
Regards,
Stefan
