Re: Changes made through the API

[Péter Gerő]

Hi Bharani,

Thanks for the detailed answer, I wasn't familiar with the "User" and 
"Tool" filter types in the UI, I think these may have been added after last 
time I have checked it ( didn't see any updates about this though ).
I couldn't find any way to do this automatically ( through 
CustomerSyncService I'm able to filter only date, campaign and adgroup ids 
), so is it possible only manually?
Is there any way - apart from our own logs - to get information about the 
data downloaded through the API? ( "what did our tool have access to" )

Thanks,
Peter

Changes made through the API

[Péter Gerő]

Hi,

Is there a way to determine if a specific change in the account ( 
preferably logged and accessible in the change history ) has been made 
through the AdWords API or manually ( through the UI or editor)?
We have a tool using the PHP client library, which performs several 
operations ( reporting and updates as well ) after the user grants access 
to its AdWords account, so by looking at the change history manually, the 
user itself is displayed, and we don't have any way ( except the time and 
date of the change, which is not sufficient ) to determine, if it was made 
by our tool, or the user.
The reason behind it would be to give some information about our tools 
activity to our clients.

Thanks,
Peter Gerő

Hi,

I had the same issue couple weeks ago, have you set

BatchJobService upload containing objects with "&" can't be serialized (PHP)

[Péter Gerő]

Hi,

I have an XML product feed, which I was trying to process with 
BatchJobService, but in many cases an exception was thrown, saying 
"unterminated entity reference". This happened before the objects were 
uploaded to AdWords, so I took a look at the XmlSerializer utility, because 
I traced back the issue to ConvertObjectToElement method, line 83:

$element->nodeValue = self::ConvertObjectToNodeValue($object);

This assigning failes in case of an object wich has attributes containing 
the '&' character. I have used htmlspecialchars($string, ENT_XML1, 'UTF-8') 
on those fields, so the exception is not thrown anymore.

Shouldn't this be handled by the util class?

Thanks,

Peter Gerő

BatchJobService results can't be deserialized (PHP)

[Péter Gerő]

Hi,

Our tool uses the PHP client lib. and even running the sample 
"AddCompleteCampaignUsingBatchJob.php" an exception is thrown when there 
are errors in the downloaded result set, so basically it cant process the 
results.

I have traced it back to XmlDeserializer.php utility. 
The error message says: "Property _parameterMap does not exist".

To be more specific when it tries to get the errorString property of a 
child of ApiError class (ConvertElementToObject method last section), the 
hasProperty() call returns false, then it tries to get the _parameterMap of 
ApiError, which fails, and throws the above mentioned error.

Am I missing / have overlooked something here?

Thanks,

Peter Gerő

Non existent conversion tracker

[Péter Gerő]

Hi,

I have came across a rather unusual problem. We have an API tool which uses 
the PHP client library, and when it tries to list all conversion trackers 
under an account through the ConversionTrackerService there is one 
particular entry, which is not present in AdWords under Tools / 
Conversions. There are no predicates in the selector. How is this possible?

Cheers,
Peter
