I am unable to create a new audience using the new Google Ads API. The
release notes for version 0.6.0 of the API
(https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/release-notes) claim
that the ability to "Create audiences using UserListService" was added in
this release. I am using version 0.6.0 of the java Google Ads SDK. Here is
my code (it's groovy code using the java sdk, not Java code):
// Look up an existing rule-based user list...
UserList existingUserList =
userListServiceClient.getUserList("customers/6257802538/userLists/4598470")
// Use the rule-based user list I looked up to create a new user
list. I need to clear some attributes to avoid API errors...
UserList newUserList = UserList.newBuilder(existingUserList)
.setName(StringValue.of("Oler user list test 1"))
.clearId()
.clearResourceName()
.clearClosingReason()
.build()
UserListOperation userListOperation = UserListOperation.newBuilder()
.setCreate(newUserList)
.build()
userListServiceClient.mutateUserLists('6257802538',
[userListOperation])
Here is the API error I receive when I make this call:
errors {
error_code {
user_list_error: CONCRETE_TYPE_REQUIRED
}
message: "Concrete type of user list is required."
trigger {
string_value: ""
}
location {
operation_index {
}
}
}
I get the same error when trying to create a LOGICAL user list instead of a
RULE_BASED user list as I'm doing in the example. In my example code, I'm
trying to copy an existing user list, but I've also tried creating the user
list from scratch, and I received the exact same API error ("concrete type
required"). I don't see where I can set things like the url on a rule-based
user list or add references to other user lists when creating a logical
user list. Is creating user lists really supported in 0.6.0 of the Google
Ads API as the release notes indicate? If so, what am I doing wrong when
I'm attempting to create these things?
