AdWords API passing Client ID, still getting results for MCC
Hi,
I'm using awapi_dotnet_3.1.1.
I think this is a bug, but want to ask the forum before reporting it.
In the following code, I create a headers dictionary using the
web.config settings, then override the client ID, then create a user
and call getAccountInfo(), just like in Examples
\v13\AccountServiceNoConfigDemo.cs
I would expect it to return the account info for the overridden Client
ID, but instead it returns the account info for the client id in the
web.config settings (which happens to be my MCC account).
Any help much appreciated:

AdWords API Question about - getKeywordVariations
Does it return the same results if I give it 10 seedkeywords in one request VERSUS 10 separate requests with one keyword each? for example, would it return the same results for this list of words java coding programming versus requesting each of those words individually and pooling the results into a long list? Put another way, does the tool take into consideration the members of the seedKeywords[] passed in, and look for semantic matches close to all of them as a group, or does it deal with them each individually? thanks! --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.

AdWords API report downloads started failing - any ideas?
Hi, I've got a daily job that downloads all of the reports in my MCC. the core of which is the ReportService.DownloadFile. (of course). This has been running daily for months, but this weekend it started generating errors: Unexpected EOF or 0 bytes downloaded. OR Thread was being aborted So I wrapped that in a try/catch and re-try 5 times. Now it sometimes succeeds, and sometimes fails on various reports (it is not just one report in particular). So, my question is... - Did anything change to the relevant API code? - Any brilliant ideas for what I might do client-side to manage these errors (other than simply attempting more re-tries...)

We have many accounts under an MCC. Can someone clarify the following statement? Does that mean globally unique _within an account_, or does that mean globally unique _across all accounts in google_?

AdWords API "keep alive" equivalent?
I've got a long-running job (a few hours) that iterates through all of our 2.8 million criterion across 5 accounts in order to download them. I intermittently run across an error like "the connections was expected to be kept open but was closed by the server..." (I can get the exact error next time it happens, if necessary). I'm hoping someone might suggest a good "keep alive" type request I could insert into my code to execute on occasion with the intent of keeping the connection alive. Also, if I try/catch an exception, could you suggest code for re- establishing a connection, rather just bailing out completely?

AdWords API Re: Structure Report exceeds 250MB limit - what now?
Indeed, I'm able to download the report as a gzip. For the record, it was 50MB compressed (and downloaded), 3 GB uncompressed. So, indeed, it looks as if the 250MB limit applies to the download size, NOT the uncompressed size. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.

(Please accept my apologies if this post is not welcome in this group. I hope it is) JustAnswer.com is looking to hire a part-time consultant to assist with in-house development work with the Google AdWords API. You will be developing in-house tools to support our PPC Management operation. We are a Microsoft shop, running on .NET 3.5, Windows Server 2008, and Windows SQL 2008. Immediate Tasks (example deliverables) - Download our entire account structure and store it in a local database. Should update nightly, reliably. You will need to design and create an appropriate database to support this. End result - we should be able to query our campaign structure locally. - Download performance reports and store them in the local datbase. Should download nightly, reliably. You will need to design and create an appropriate database to support this. End result - we should be able to query our performance data locally to produce a "bulk sheet". - Automate our ability to query the above performance data, stuff it into excel (where we apply proprietary bidding formulas), and then export a bulk sheet. - Upload properly-formatted bulksheets to our Google Accounts. Should run on-demand and handle common error-cases gracefully. Future tasks will build off of these basics.

AdWords API Re: .NET specific - public AdWordsUser(Hashtable headers) fails?
Umm, okay, I'm hoping someone tells me I was using this wrong.
In the meantime, I've updated my local copy of AdWordsUser.cs as
follows
159: foreach (DictionaryEntry entry in headers)
this.headers.Add(entry.Key, entry.Value);
Which is intended to copy the values from the "headers" parameter into
this.headers.
Which, I think, was the point of this function in the first place.
Which if I'm right would suggest that the default constructor
should be modified to the following PSEUDO-CODE:
AdWordsUser()
{
Get headers from config
Call AdWordsUser(headers)
}
Again, if I am mis-using this library, please let me know. Otherwise,
please comment on my suggestion.
Thoughts?

AdWords API Re: .NET specific - public AdWordsUser(Hashtable headers) fails?
so, more pointedley, shouldn't line 159 of AdWordsUser.cs be something
like:
this.headers = headers;
(I know, that's not the proper code, but you get the idea).

AdWords API Re: Limits on Reporting Across Accounts with MCC
Another suggestion would be to iterate through each of your accounts, scheduling a report for each, then go back and get them each individually. With the API at least, that's pretty straightforward (though admittedly pretty painful if you are going to use the web interface to get the reports). Big advantage is now you have 15 reports per account, and each of them can reach max size for each account. I'm having to do this for structure reports, as an example, mostly because they are not supported at the MCC level.

AdWords API .NET specific - public AdWordsUser(Hashtable headers) fails?
This is one of those where I know I must be wrong... Please help me.
I'm trying to use this in an application where I have an MCC login,
and multiple client accounts.
So, when I want to create an instance for a particular child Account
ID
...
headers = null;
// Successfully gets headers from configuration file for MCC
login.
headers = (Hashtable)
System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.GetConfig
("adwordsHeaders");
headers["clientCustomerId"] = "XXX-XXX-; // (obfuscated) -
set the clientCustomerID to a valid CustomerID
_user = new AdWordsUser(headers);
...
That results in a _user whose headers are all NULL except for
clientCustomerID.
I would expect AdWordsUser(headers) to actually use the values in the
headers array and set them for _user.
So my question is - do I have to do this myself, or am I doing
something else wrong.
Looking into the supplied API /lib/AdWordsUser.cs file, it appears
that the constructor fails to actually set any local headers values
from the supplied headers parameter (ironically, unless they are of
the wrong type, in which case it fixes that and sets the local headers
value).
Is this a bug in the library (I know, unlikely), or user error (much
more likely).
Much appreciate any help.
Thanks.

AdWords API Re: Structure Report triggers invalid date error in GetAllJobs
Thanks for the speedy response. Being honest, I'm new to SOAP, etc., so it's gonna take me a few minutes to find out how to setup the SOAP trace. And, yes, I can manually delete the report. My concern would be that the same thing is going to happen when I get valid structure reports in the client accounts. Will those also bust GetAllJobs? As for your other questions, I just logged in as MCC and scheduled a structure report. Since it validated, I ran it (Hoping for undocumented functionality to get me a structure report for my entire MCC account structure, but I got an empty report instead. That might be worth updating in the future. Meaning - don't validate a structure report at the MCC level. As a feature request, It would be terrific if we could get MCC level structure reports. As it is, I have to iterate through each client, validate and schedule, then go back some time later and collect them. All my other (performance) reports run at the MCC level, this one should too. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.

AdWords API Re: Structure Report triggers invalid date error in GetAllJobs
OK, not sure how to generate XML / SOAP trace info with .NET. I found this page, but nothing about .NET. http://www.google.com/support/adwordsapi/bin/answer.py?answer=15137 If you could point me in the right direction, that would be great.

AdWords API Structure Report triggers invalid date error in GetAllJobs
Hi,
I'm running into an error where a previously scheduled and completed
structure report is sitting and waiting in my account (happens to be
an MCC account). As long as that report is there, when I run
GetAllJobs, i get the following error: (running .NET 3.5)

AdWords API Best method for downloading full account?
Hi, We've got 5 Accounts under an MCC, and about 4Million active keywords and placements. We're just getting started with the API, and one of my first tasks is to begin to maintain a "snapshot" of the current state of everything. I have to imagine others have had this requirement. So, what's the best way to go about it? Here is what I've tried: First, since there is no mechanism to see what is changed since yesterday, i have to dump and start over. What I do is I nest a bunch of for loops, pulling the info and writing to the DB as I go. So, for all accounts (write account info), for all campaigns (write campaign info), for all AdGroups (write AdGroup info), for all Criterion (write criterion info). This runs for about 3 hours... But I can download a Keyword Report, with most of this information, in about 5 minutes! There must be a better way - please share?
