Hi,
On the AdWords API Perspective, before you can create a Shopping campaign,
you need to first link your Google Ads account to your Google Merchant
Center account. Once done linking both accounts, you should be able to
create your shopping campaign by following this guide
<https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/shopping#creating_a_shopping_campaign>
which
includes sample code here
<https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/samples/java/shopping-campaigns#add-a-shopping-campaign>
(also
available in other languages). Also, you could do that using your Google
Ads test account as long as you have Google Merchant Center account.
With regards to the "campaign URL" that you mentioned, could you clarify on
which part do you need this? As far as I know you could just create any
dummy URL if your purpose is for testing only.
In case you encountered any error while creating shopping campaigns, please
provide your complete SOAP request and response logs so I could take a look
on the issue then please reply via *Reply privately to author*.
Thanks and regards,
Luis

Hi Team,
I need to create a new shopping campaign by using the Google AdWords API.
But before that, I wanted to check the end to end flow for shopping
campaign with Google Ads and Google Merchant Center UI just to test the
functionality.
I've completed the following steps:
- Created Google Ads Manager and Client account
- Created Google merchant center account and linked the above account with
it.
- Using the content APIs, I uploaded some products to the merchant center
But while creating a shopping campaign from my client account, I'm not able
to proceed beyond step 1 i.e providing campaign settings.
Currently, I've not provided any campaign URL as I don't have any website
to point to. I am also not sure about how to add the template URL and
suffix. Would be great if someone can guide me on this.
Could you please let me know if there is any way to use the existing Google
merchant center account as a test account where I don't need to provide the
campaign URL?
