Suggested Bid from Search-based keyword tool vs (API) CPC from Traffic Estimator

2010-09-03 Thread hank khang
Two related parts question:

I am an API user ...

1) What is the relationship between CPC from Traffic Estimator (TE)
service and Suggested Bid returned from the Search-based keyword tool
(http://www.google.com/sktool/#)?   Can I estimate Suggested Bid from
TE outputs? Do they represent the same thing at some level?

2) Is there an API for getting search-based keyword tool results.

Thanks
Hank

CANNOT_TARGET_THE_SAME_TARGET_LIST_TYPE_MULTIPLE_TIMES

2010-09-03 Thread dshevnock
Within the past week, we started getting this error code back when
trying to update our campaign geotargeting:

CANNOT_TARGET_THE_SAME_TARGET_LIST_TYPE_MULTIPLE_TIMES

Does anyone have any information on what would cause this sort of
error code to be generated or what this code really means?

How to get CPC for Exact Keywords with the Adwords API

2010-09-03 Thread jabychan
is there a chance to get CPCs especially for Keywords with the
KeywordType Exact from the Adwords API. We tried to use as advised the
TrafficEstimatorInterface but we noticed that the results dont match
with the Excat Keyword but instead with the Broad Keyword. Futher
doesn't it change the results if the KeywordType of the KeywordRequest
is changed from Broad to Excat. Both result were alike.

Thanks for your help.

Re: bulk mutate operations and TOO_MANY_JOBS_IN_QUEUE

2010-09-03 Thread AdWords API Advisor
Hi Nuri,

Unfortunately there are no way to cancel pending jobs at the moment.
However, the next version of the API will include this functionality.
In the mean time the only solution is to finish uploading parts to the
incomplete job, which will get it to start.  The downside here is that
the old operations in the job will then be processed.

 Imagine; machine stop suddenly (by any reason) and some jobs has been

Re: SizeLimitError.RESPONSE_SIZE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED.

2010-09-03 Thread ojak
Anash,

I share Pitambari's frustration here.  We also receive API errors
based on undocumented, arbitrary system limits and it's quite painful
to catch and correct for these sorts of exceptions (i.e. it kills our
productivity since we often spend more time writing error-handling/
retry code than deployment code).

For example, how are we to know *how many* Ad Group ADD operations may
be sent in a single AdGroup request (10, 100, 1000, 1)?  The
results can't be paged on creation, since paging only works on
selectors, so how are we set our operation array sizes?  Guess and
check?  Use some other method?

More to the point, are there any ways to remove undocumented,
arbitrary limits from the API entirely?  Even if the limits are low,
it's really important for developers to have a predictable framework
(i.e. it would make our lives much easier).  Any additional help here
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your help.

 Hi Pitambari,

 The AdWords API server sets a maximum size on the size of the SOAP
 response xml. If you are running into this error, the workaround is to
 process lesser number of items per request. If you are uploading
 campaigns, then mutate a lesser number of campaigns per call. If you
 are fetching campaigns, try using paging to retrieve a lesser number
 of campaigns per request.

 Seehttp://code.google.com/apis/adwords/v2009/docs/reference/CampaignServ...
 for additional details.

 Unfortunately, I cannot share a number for the upper limit on response
 size.
