Re: AdWords API Re: Perl API Support.
Hi, Rohan [CC'd] would you consider deleting your all your Google-Adwords distributions from CPAN? They'll still all be available via BACKPAN (http://backpan.perl.org/authors/id/R/RO/ROHAN/) but deleting them will mean Google-Adwords will no longer be indexed or appear on search.cpan.org. That'll reduce the current confusion. FYI You can delete the files at https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=delete_files Sure, I'll do this. Any specific date in mind, or I should just go ahead and delete them all right now? I can help with the CPAN maintenance of the new module. The current code hosted at code.google.com is under the Apache License 2.0, which seems quite liberal to me in creation of derivative works, and hosting that on another public place. I'll also get my hands dirty with SOAP::WSDL. Thanks, Rohan Putting the new library on CPAN would be great for developers, Not just for developers but for yourselves as authors. The automated testing you get via cpantesters (see above) is invaluable. but what's held us back from doing that in the past is that the installation is currently very manual, involving the SOAP::WSDL patches, etc. We can work on eliminating these steps so that distribution of the library is simpler. Thanks again for the interest and excitement. We look forward to working with you and other Perl developers. Since Martin's time is limited and he's very open to contributors (see http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/MKUTTER/SOAP-WSDL-2.00.99_1/HACKING) perhaps one of the adwords developers could spare some time to contribute directly to the project and commit changes to the repository. Now would be a great time as Martin's working towards a major release based on the Typemap branch that AdWords API uses. Tim.

CPAN is the standard toolchain for perl developers and is the community approved method for contributing code. So if these changes are needed I'd like to get them on CPAN. Please consider if this can work with your legal team and terms. We' d be happy to add a note to the author section saying something like, some code contributed by Google or similar. Let me know what you think 2) Ideally this code in google-api-adwords would also get released to CPAN in a regular way. obviously the developer repo and related tools like bugtracking and discussion can reside anywhere, but again any Perl developer would look to CPAN first for code. If the existing Google::Adwords module is going be be considered deprecated I need to get the author to mark a new release as such, and ideally we'd cut a working version of the code in the repository over here onto CPAN, like under Google::API::Adwords or similar. Is there someone on the Google end that wants to own this CPAN module? If you need help getting this together I would gladly assist. Myself I am not a SOAP expert. In general SOAP is not preferred by any dynamic language, it is a better fit for strongly typed languages such as Java. So I can't assist very much on that side. However I can act to help facilitate communication between our communities and with other bookekeeping tasks, like CPAN access, etc. Some developers on our side may be willing to put some additional time into getting all this working. Thanks!

Re: AdWords API Google::Adwords perl module update for v2009?
Hi, I'm the author of the Google::Adwords Perl module which is currently on CPAN. I thought I'll make it clear for now, that I have no plans of upgrading this module for the v2009 API. Google provides a Perl library for the new API so that would be the best route. Besides the changes are numerous to perform a 'upgrade' and it would be better to just start afresh which is a huge task in itself. All the best in upgrading your Perl code for the new v2009 API. I'm available on this forum and I look forward to help in any way if possible. -- Rohan Grant wrote: Does anyone know if the Google::Adwords perl module will be updated for v2009?

AdWords API Re: Perl / SOAP Adwords API problem
Hi,
It looks to me like you're using an incorrect XPath expression to
get to your results. //body i.e. I guess using //moreSpecific
should help.
I've also had a try at this using Google::Adwords, but on the
sandbox.
my $seed_keyword1 = Google::Adwords::SeedKeyword-new;
$seed_keyword1-negative(0);
$seed_keyword1-text('trusted places');
$seed_keyword1-type('Broad');
my $keyword_variations = $service-getKeywordVariations(
{
seedKeywords = [ $seed_keyword1, ],
useSynonyms = 1,
languages= [ 'en', ],
countries= [ 'US', ],
}
);
for ( @{ $keyword_variations-moreSpecific } ) {
print Text: . $_-text . \n;
print advertiserCompetitionScale:
. $_-advertiserCompetitionScale . \n;
}
Hope this helps.

Hi all,
Would really appreciate your help. This is probably more of a Perl /
SOAP than adwords API question, but I've spent hours trawling the
internet for an answer to this and cannot find it, so I'm hoping you
can help :). I'm relatively new to Perl and SOAP, and I'm trying to
implement a connection to the Google Adwords API using SOAP::Lite. I
have it almost working but however I try and get a return value from
SOAP::SOM (e.g. using valueof or result) I only seem to get the last
element. Even calling valueof(//Body) just gives me one element. I
have tried debugging the code and using Dumper, but the SOAP::Lite
code is quite unreadable (at least to me :)
and I can't work out whats going on. I've tried implementing this
directly both using SOAP::Lite and via Google::Adwords, and they both
have the same behaviour.
This what I get from valueof(//Body):
$VAR1 = {
'getKeywordVariationsResponse' = {
'getKeywordVariationsReturn' = {
'moreSpecific' = {
'searchVolumeScale' = '2',
'language' = '',
'text' = 'trusted places 1',
'advertiserCompetitionScale' = '3'
}
}
}
};
But I know there is more than one KeywordVariation from using Dumper
on the SOAP::SOM object.
This is the code I am using, its basically the example provided by
Google:
use strict;
use warnings;
use English '-no_match_vars';
use SOAP::Lite;
use Data::Dumper;
binmode(STDOUT, ':utf8');
# Provide AdWords login information.
my $email = '';
my $password = '';
my $client_email = 'client_1+dan.j.rog...@gmail.com';
my $useragent = 'QYPE: AdWords API Perl Sample Code';
my $developer_token = 'dan.j.rog...@gmail.com++usd';
my $application_token = 'INSERT_APPLICATION_TOKEN_HERE';
# Set up service connection with autotyping disabled and fault handler
# registered. To send requests to production environment, replace
sandbox with
# adwords. To view XML request/response, uncomment
# SOAP::Lite-import(+trace = 'debug');.
my $url =
sprintf('https://%s.google.com/api/adwords/v12/KeywordToolService',
'sandbox');
my $wsdl = $url . '?wsdl';
my $service =
SOAP::Lite-service($wsdl)-autotype(0)-readable(1)-proxy($url);
$service-on_fault(sub {
my $response = $ARG[1];
die('The following SOAP fault occurred:', \n,
' faultcode: ', $response-faultcode(), \n,
' faultstring: ', $response-faultstring(),
\n)
});
SOAP::Lite-import(+trace = 'debug');
# Define SOAP headers.
my @headers = (
SOAP::Header-name('email' = $email),
SOAP::Header-name('password' = $password),
SOAP::Header-name('clientEmail' = $client_email),
SOAP::Header-name('useragent' = $useragent),
SOAP::Header-name('developerToken' = $developer_token),
SOAP::Header-name('applicationToken' = $application_token)
);
# Create seed keyword structure.
my $seed_keyword = {
'negative' = 'false',
'text' = 'trusted places',
'type' = 'Broad',
};
my $seed_keywords = SOAP::Data-name('seed_keywords' =
[$seed_keyword]);
my $use_synonyms = SOAP::Data-name('useSynonyms' = 'true');
my $languages = SOAP::Data-name('languages' = ['en']);
my $countries = SOAP::Data-name('countries' = ['US']);
# Get keyword variations.
my $variation_lists = $service-call('getKeywordVariations' =
$seed_keywords,
$use_synonyms, $languages, $countries, @headers);
print Dumper($variation_lists);
my @data = $variation_lists-valueof(//Body);
foreach my $data_word (@data){
print Dumper($data_word);
}
If anyone knows where I am going wrong I'd be most grateful!
Thanks for your help.

AdWords API Google::Adwords v1.12 Perl module (support for v13)
Hi, I've released v1.12 of the Google::Adwords Perl module which now has support for v13 of the Adwords API. All my sandbox tests pass, so it should be an easy enough upgrade for you. Please use the cpan utility to upgrade. If not, you can download it from here - http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/R/RO/ROHAN/Google-Adwords-v1.12.tar.gz If you face any problems due to the upgrade, don't hesitate to contact me directly.
