Issue regarding Invalid and/or missing SSL certificate for URL for an application

[Kiran Kumar]

Hello,
 
  I have my mcc client id and got authorized with the developer 
token . There by i am further processed to get the developer token and got 
the access token for that. After this i want to integrate my api with the 
application .On processing into that i am facing the issues as missing SSL 
certificate for url and if i change it as HTTP other that HTTPS i am 
redirecting to a code of the given product(what is mentioned in  url).Is it 
necessary to have SSL certificate.Or else what might be the issue regarding 
this error.

Thank You.

NPE in OAUTH

[Gopi]

While migrating to 201409, i am seeing the below exception with OAUTH. I 
verified the client ID and client secret, they are passed correctly. Is 
there any thing else i need to verify for this.

Using the Refresh token generatedby GetRefreshToken sample code.

Credential credential = new OfflineCredentials.Builder()
  .forApi(OfflineCredentials.Api.ADWORDS)
  .withClientSecrets(clientId, clientSecret)
  .withRefreshToken(refreshToken)
  .build()
  .generateCredential();

Click through rate bigger the 100%

[Luca Fiaschi]

Hi,
Pulling a keyword performance report

   SELECT  Clicks, Conversions, Cost, ConversionValue,Impressions, Id, 
KeywordText, Ctr,
AdGroupName, AccountDescriptiveName, MaxCpc, AverageCpc
FROM KEYWORDS_PERFORMANCE_REPORT
WHERE Id != 300 AND Id != 306 AND Impressions > 0 AND 
AdGroupStatus=ENABLED AND CampaignStatus=ENABLED AND Status=ENABLED
DURING 20140926, 20141026


I noticed several keywords with CTR above 100% (even 200%) how is this 
possible?

I tried to compute ctr as click/impression and the value returned by the 
API and both are the same: which means impressions below the number of 
clicks !

typo in bidding scheme definition

[Luca Fiaschi]

Hi,
I just noticed a typo in the bidding scheme definition.

API_VERSION = v201406
googleads version = 1.0.7

Trying to upload a bidding scheme, this request works fine, with "Constained" 
misspelled


biddingScheme = {
'xsi_type': 'PageOnePromotedBiddingScheme',
'strategyGoal': strategy_goal,
'bidCeiling': {'microAmount':microAmount},
'bidModifier': bid_modifier,
'bidChangesForRaisesOnly': bid_changes_for_raises_only,
'raiseBidWhenBudgetConstained': raise_bid_when_budget_constrained,
'raiseBidWhenLowQualityScore': raise_bid_when_low_quality_score
}

but does not work when changed to "Constrained" (correct spelling) 
complaining that the fields does not exists.

Response:

[(SharedBiddingStrategy){
   biddingScheme = 
  (PageOnePromotedBiddingScheme){
 BiddingScheme.Type = "PageOnePromotedBiddingScheme"
 strategyGoal = "PAGE_ONE_PROMOTED"
 bidCeiling = 
(Money){
   ComparableValue.Type = "Money"
   microAmount = 400
}
 bidModifier = 1.2004768
 bidChangesForRaisesOnly = True
 raiseBidWhenBudgetConstained = False
 raiseBidWhenLowQualityScore = True
  }
   id = 614000238
   name = "DEAFULT_TOP_PAGE_PROMOTED"
   status = "ENABLED"
   type = "PAGE_ONE_PROMOTED"
 }]


I am not sure whether this was fixed in the new release,
Best

Required Minimum Functionality field conflicts

[Peter Kingswell]

Hi,

I'm updating our app to follow the AdWords RMF 
(https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/requirements).  RMF R.20 
states that ClickType must be shown.  This isn't possible for us since we 
have ReportDefinition.includeZeroImpressions set to true (which conflicts 
with ClickType).  Another conflict is that we download 
SearchBudgetLostImpressionShare and SearchRankLostImpressionShare, which 
also cannot be downloaded along with ClickType.  Here's the error message 
for the latter conflict:

Cannot select a combination of ClickType and 
AdvertiserExperimentId,AssistClicks,AssistClicksOverLastClicks,AssistImpressions,AssistImpressionsOverLastClicks,AverageFrequency,AveragePageviews,AverageTimeOnSite,AvgCallDurationSecs,BounceRate,Bounces,BudgetLostImpressionShare,CallDurationSecs,ClickAssistedConversionValue,ClickAssistedConversionValueLong,ClickAssistedConversionValueNonMoney,ClickAssistedConversions,ClickAssistedConversionsOverLastClickConversions,ClickReach,ContentBudgetLostImpressionShare,ContentImpressionShare,ContentLocalBidLostImpressions,ContentLocalShownImpressions,ContentLocalThrottledImpressions,ContentRankLostImpressionShare,CostPerEstimatedTotalConversion,EstimatedCrossDeviceConversions,EstimatedTotalConversionRate,EstimatedTotalConversionValue,EstimatedTotalConversionValuePerClick,EstimatedTotalConversionValuePerCost,EstimatedTotalConversions,EstimatedTotalConversionsManyPerClick,ExactMatchImpressionShare,ExternalAdChanges,ExternalBidChanges,ExternalBudgetChanges,ExternalChanges,ExternalKeywordChanges,ExternalNetworkChanges,ExternalStatusChanges,ExternalTargetingChanges,ImpressionAssistedConversionValue,ImpressionAssistedConversionValueLong,ImpressionAssistedConversionValueNonMoney,ImpressionAssistedConversions,ImpressionAssistedConversionsOverLastClickConversions,ImpressionReach,ImpressionShare,InternalAdChanges,InternalBidChanges,InternalBudgetChanges,InternalChanges,InternalKeywordChanges,InternalNetworkChanges,InternalStatusChanges,InternalTargetingChanges,LastClickConversions,LastClicks,NewVisitors,NumCalls,NumMissedCalls,NumReceivedCalls,Pageviews,PercentNewVisitors,QualityLostImpressionShare,ReachBucket,RelativeCtr,SearchBudgetLostImpressionShare,SearchExactMatchImpressionShare,SearchImpressionShare,SearchLocalBidLostImpressions,SearchLocalShownImpressions,SearchLocalThrottledImpressions,SearchRankLostImpressionShare,ValuePerEstimatedTotalConversion,VisitDuration,Visits

So it would seem to me that our options are:
- not download ClickType - and thus not entirely conform to the RMF
- not download the conflicting fields (e.g. SearchRankLostImpressionShare) 
- this would break important features in our app
- download the data twice - once for SearchRankLostImpressionShare and once 
for ClickType - obviously we want to avoid this (how would you merge the 
data?  sounds difficult)

Any advice appreciated!
Peter

 Am migrating to v201409

 Getting error:

 AuthenticationError.CLIENT_CUSTOMER_ID_IS_REQUIRED
 when calling getReportFields

 Reading this:

 https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201409/ReportDefinitionService

 I find in errors section:

 CLIENT_CUSTOMER_ID_IS_REQUIRED Client Customer Id is required if 
 CustomerIdMode is set to CLIENT_EXTERNAL_CUSTOMER_ID. Starting version 
 V201409 ClientCustomerId will be required for all requests except for 
 CustomerService.get 
 
 I can't find anything in the docs about setting CustomerIdMode. And 
 anyway, I added the clientCustomerId header to the HTTP POST just like 
 with 
 other calls, but I still get the error. And finally, why does this 
 methods 
 require a Client Customer Id? Might the fields returned be different 
 for 
 different customers?

Re: Solution for creating a label when creating a TextAd

[Alan Coleman]

Hi Martin,

Thanks for making me stick with this one, I finally got it working. The 
issue was down to my code rather than your explanation.

I was attempting to add the label ID to the TextAd Object rather than 
creating a Label Object of its own.

This is what is required when using the PHP Library

$textAdLabel = new Label();
$textAdLabel->id = $val['labelid'];

Simple!

Thanks again for your help and explanation.

Re: Are all Campaign settings available via the API

[Danial Klimkin]

Hello Alan,


It's read only as it can't be changed once criterion is created. You can 
change campaign setting by adding or removing criteria, not updating it.

I recommend checking out our client libraries. Each of them has a solid set 
of examples covering many typical use cases:

Re: Solution for creating a label when creating a TextAd

[Alan Coleman]

Hi Martin,

Thanks for making me stick with this one, I finally got it working. The 
issue was down to my code rather than your explanation.

I was attempting to add the label ID to the TextAd Object rather than 
creating a Label Object of its own.

NO:

$textAd->displayUrl = $textDisplayUrl;
$textAd->url = $textUrl;
$textAd->labels = $labelid;

Re: Error when calling getReportFields

[Anash P. Oommen (AdWords API Team)]

Hi Chris,

Could you post a request id for a failed request, so I can investigate this 
further? It is part of the SOAP response header.

AdWords API Advisor.

 Hi Chris,

 in v201409, we made client customer id a required field in all the 
 services. We have asked the team to relax this requirement for 
 ReportDefinitionService. Meanwhile, you can work around the issue by 
 setting the clientCustomerId header in the API calls to 
 ReportDefinitionService. Using your MCC CID should work fine.

Big problems with REPORTS data values

[Florio]

Hi all,

as I written in the subject I have big problems with the values in REPORTS 
that I download.
Until 3-4 weeks ago everything worked well but now something looks changed. 
More or less the same time the API are changed.

I use an MCC account with more than 1000 accounts inside. I download 
reports everyday and many times for each day. I get, for example, the cost 
value for each account splitted for device. 
I'm using the PHP API version: v201406. 

When I read the values and I compare to the WebUI values they are 
different. Not always but very often. 
I get no errors during the download, everything technically looks to work. 
It happens for reports setted to TODAY or YESTERDAY. 
Every account is setted to pacific time and I download reports 1 hour and 
half after the day ends in pacific time. 
As I said it worked well for years until few weeks ago.

What is changed? What can I do to solve it? 

Thank you,
Florio.
