Hello Sean, I see that the ad group has no targeting criteria created. I'd suggest that you add targeting criteria using the AdGroupCriterionService <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201710/AdGroupCriterionService.AdGroupCriterionOperation>, ADD operation. Once the targeting criteria is created for this AdGroup, you will be able to perform a SET operation to set the bid adjustments. If you try to ADD a criterion that already exists, it will be treated as a SET operation on the existing criterion. Can you try the request again with this changes and let me know how it goes?
