Display campaign marketing objectives via API

[veseo]

Hello,

can we specify Marketing objectives 
(https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/6175956?hl=en#compare) via the 
API? I checked the Release notes 
, nothing is 
mentioned there about them. I checked out The Campaign settings 

 too 
- advertisingChannelSubType seemed to be the closest thing to a Marketing 
objective, but after creating a Display campaign with a marketing objective 
via the interface and downloading it via the API, it seems not to be the 
case.

So, is this feature still too new to be manipulated via the API? If yes, is 
there an ETA of its implementation?

Final and Destination URLs - how to proceed

[veseo]

Hello, 

I'm currently trying to figure out how to proceed with the migration of 
Destination URLs to Final URLs (yeah, I know it's a bit late to think of 
it, but my previous plan had a major flaw that was only discovered a few 
days ago, so a rewrite is now needed). The problem is that we have quite a 
few clients and manually migrating them to the new format (with final URLs) 
will take lots of credits, so that's only a worst case solution. Here's 
what's not really clear to me:

- Starting from July 1st, destination URLs will not be mutable (even though 
I can still create keywords with destination URLs, how's that possible?) 
via the API and we need to set final URLs instead. Okay, but if I just set 
final URL instead of destination URL, I get the dreaded 
*CANNOT_SET_BOTH_DESTINATION_URL_AND_FINAL_URLS* error. Let's say that I 
have to keep in my database whether the current criterion/ad has a 
destination url or a final url (even though it sounds quite an ugly 
solution) and send the correct one, based on that logic. However, what 
happens when the automatic upgrade migrates the criterion/ad to the new 
format? Do I need to sync periodically, just to see which entities have 
already been migrated and which ones are yet to be migrated?

Re: Exception while adding a template Ad

Hi,

is there a possibility to support Templates with ID 424 via the API? We are

to do it via the API for now (I'm getting the same error as the guy from 
the first message).

Report for multiple clients in one call?

[veseo]

Hello,

is it possible at all to download a report for multiple clients in one 
call? I'm asking as we are downloading reports for ~3000 clients (multiply 
that x2 as we need separate reports for keywords and textads), which, after 
the imposed limit, will mean that a client will have their statistics 
refreshed approximately once a week :( Also, even if we tried to apply for 
Standard Access, we won't have enough time to implement all missing 
features until that limit is imposed.

Empty values for TargetingIdeaService with LanguageSearchParameter?

[veseo]

Hello,

we've noticed very strange behaviour of TargetingIdeaService (for both 
v201306 and v201302) for *some* keywords, when using the 
LanguageSearchParameter - they have no results at all (neither for 
TARGETED_MONTHLY_SEARCHES, nor AVERAGE_CPC, nor SEARCH_VOLUME, nor 
COMPETITION). On the other hand, all other keywords (that have any 
statistics) are exactly the same as the Keyword Planner (as they should) so 
I guess we're making the correct call to the API? I'm attaching a request 
and its corresponding response, having four keywords - two of them (banana 
and cake) do not have any statistics via the API (and have some, via the 
Keyword Planner), while the other two (arbeiten and hosting) have 
statistics that are exactly the same (SEARCH_VOLUME and AVERAGE_CPC) with 
the Keyword Planner results. I'm also attaching a screenshot of the Keyword 
Planner results.

However, when using no LanguageSearchParameter and 
only LocationSearchParameter, this problem does not seem to occur - 
statistics are returned and are equal to those in the Keyword Planner. I'm 
also attaching two XML files, a request and the response for it, as another 
example.

Can someone explain what is going on? Is there a bug with the 
LanguageSearchParameter or we are doing something wrong?

FeedMappingService SET is invalid operator?

Hello,

we noticed that, when trying to mutate a Feed's mappings via SET, we get 
the following error - OperatorError.OPERATOR_NOT_SUPPORTED. Is SET an 
invalid Operator? If yes, why isn't this reflected in the documentation 
(which says that SET is used for updates)? I'm attaching an example request 
and response, to illustrate the problem.

Empty TARGETED_MONTHLY_SEARCHES values?

[veseo]

Hi, 

I've been seeing a bit different results between the API (v201302) and the 
GUI 
(https://adwords.google.com/o/Targeting/Explorer?__c=10&__u=10&ideaRequestType=KEYWORD_IDEAS)

After a bit of debugging, I noticed that there are no results for the last 
month (in this case, April). According to old threads, month's stats are 
available about a week after the month's end. Today is May 20th, and still 
there aren't any result for April, which leads 
to differences in TARGETED_MONTHLY_SEARCHES values (AVERAGE_CPC is fine). 
I'm attaching a request and response, can something be done to ensure equal 
results between the API and the GUI?

In the example, the keywords "test",  and "hosting" have the same targeted 
monthly searches (but both of them are for March), while the other keywords 
have close (but not exactly the same) values.

Re: TargetingIdeaService and TrafficEstimatorService problems

[veseo]

Hello Danial,

yes, that blog post at least describes (if not helps) the issue. I hope we 
can get a dot release for 201209 with the option to choose whether to 
inlclude Search Partners data or not, as otherwise it would mean ~6 months 
of different data between the API and the interface.

Also, that post does not mention anything about the TrafficEstimator 
discrepancies (which, as I mentioned, are not 201206-related, but still 
exist). Could I get some support about that to see what am I doing wrong?

Re: No GLOBAL_MONTHLY_SEARCHES in v201206

[veseo]

Yes, v201206 does not provide option to choose match type and the returned 
results are SUPPOSED to be equal to the ones that the tool (and v201109) 
returns for EXACT keywords. Problem is that v201206 results differ ALOT 
from both Tool and v201109 (which are equal). Is there sunset postponement?

Re: TargetingIdeaService and TrafficEstimatorService problems

[veseo]

Any news? If this is a known problem, please postpone the sunset of 201109 
until it's sorted out, if not - please give us a hand to sort out what 
we're doing wrong. As the things stand, starting the next Monday, we will 
be presenting our clients with totally fake and seemingly random data, even 
if we've been waiting for two weeks now for an answer (I sent an email to 
the support team before creating that thread here). I'm sorry to say it, 
but that's an example of a really poor (if not lacking at all) support job!

TargetingIdeaService and TrafficEstimatorService problems

[veseo]

Hi,

while implementing the new versions of both TargetingIdeaService and 
TrafficEstimatorService, we ran into some problems, that lead to a 
(sometimes too big) discrepancy between the API results and its 
corresponding tool.

1. TargetingIdeaService vs. http://preview.tinyurl.com/adwtool:

According to the migration guide:

*SEARCH_VOLUME is equivalent to AVERAGE_TARGETED_MONTHLY_SEARCHES if 
language and/or location is specified. SEARCH_VOLUME is equivalent to 
GLOBAL_MONTHLY_SEARCHES if language and/or location is not specified.*
*
*
But, either I'm doing something wrong (not likely, as the API usually 
crashes when passed invalid structure) or the results for targeted search 
volume between the API and the tool are completely different. Here's an 
example:

*Keyword*: [katze]
*Targeting*: Location: Austria; Language: German
*API*: SEARCH_VOLUME 18100
*Tool*: 5400

I'm attaching the request and response xmls.

2. TrafficEstimatorService vs http://preview.tinyurl.com/trafftool

The problem here seems to persist from earlier, so it's not v201206 
specific. We tried with the following data:

*Keyword*: [katze]
*Targeting*: Location: Austria; Language: German; Search Network: Google 
Search
*Max CPC*: €2.00
*Tool Average CPC*: €1.94
*API results*: min CPC: €0.42, max CPC: €0.51 - as you can see, totally 
different from the Tool results.

I'm also attaching the XML request and response files for reference.

Can someone please shed some light as to why both TargetingIdea and 
TrafficEstimator services provide incorrect data?

Re: TargetingIdeaService match type?

Hi,

thanks, then my other question remains - which matchtype the results equal 
to. I'll try and find that other thread, hope that is answered there.

Re: Change notification settings via API?

Hi,

can anyone answer this? We have hundreds of clients, whose settings must be 
changed and it would take too much time to do it manually.

Change notification settings via API?

[veseo]

Hi,

is there a way to change the notification settings and who receives 
notifications on certain events via the API? I noticed AlertService, but as 
far as I saw, it's used to get actual alerts (filtered by various filters), 
not change a client's notification settings. Neither CustomerService, nor 
ManagedCustomerService seem to offer that option too. Can anything be done 
via the API?

TargetingIdeaService match type?

[veseo]

In the new API version we could not specify a keyword's match type. Is 
there any way to specify it? If there isn't, which is the match type of the 
keywords from the response? The stats from the response are close to 
average of match type 'exact', but they are not equal, as they are supposed 
to be.

I'm attaching the requests and responses for two keywords - hosting and 
dortmund, both of them requested with Germany and German language. Could 
you clarify what's the situation here?

Re: CUSTOMER_NOT_WHITELISTED_FOR_API only for some clients?

update - I tested with a bit of a bigger test group and concluded that the 
whitelist are on an MCC account level. Is that true and, if yes, is that by 
design or a bug?

CUSTOMER_NOT_WHITELISTED_FOR_API only for some clients?

[veseo]

Hi,

I've been implementing the BudgetOrderService and tried to get the budgets 
for a bunch of clients (I have been whitelisted) and, to my surprise, while 
it works for some of the clients, it 
returns CUSTOMER_NOT_WHITELISTED_FOR_API for most of the clients (talking 
in numbers: 18 "working" and more than 40 returning that error). I thought 
that the whitelist is on developer level, not on customer level. How come 
some of our customers are whitelisted and some are not? What am I doing 
wrong? I'll be happy to provide more details if needed.

Re: AccountService is only available on a whitelist basis

Hello,

will we be able to use v13's AccountService to manipulate budgets after 
that service's sunset date or all of its methods (including those for 
budgets) will be sunset on 20 August 2012?

Re: Questions about BudgetOrderService

[veseo]

Is the BudgerOrderService a complete replacement for v13s' 
AccountService->addBudget method? As I understand it, *billingAccountId *equals 
v13's *orderId *and we pass the *clientCustomerId* parameter in the header 
to specify which client's budgets we are manipulating, is that correct?
Also, how can we get "whitelisted", are all resellers from v13 
automatically whitelisted or we need to contact someone to be granted 
access to that service? If not, would we be able to manipulate budgets via 
v13 after *20 August 2012* as, according to your Sunset 
dates
 v13 AccountService will be sunset?

Re: OLD country code(s)?

[veseo]

Hi Anash,

I checked two of the adGroups that received Serbia and Montenegro 
statistics today and they are both created in 2011, so, no, they are not 
too old. If you need, I could provide in private you the exact adGroup ID 
and even the response XML we received?

OLD country code(s)?

[veseo]

Why is the country codes list VERY old? We keep receiving statistics from 
Serbia and Montenegro and after a quick check in Wikipedia, this country 
does not exist since 2006. I think you know that sometimes precise 
targeting is needed and receiving statistics that an event (click or 
impression, doesn't matter) occured "in either Serbia or Montenegro" is not 
much more precise than "somewhere in Eastern Europe". I think 6 years and 
at least 5 new API versions, one of which was a MAJOR overhaul of the whole 
API, are more than enough to update AT LEAST the results you're returning. 
We got the region codes, that we've been waiting for for 2 years, from 
somewhere else, but receiving "Serbia and Montenegro" as country and 
"Unspecified" for both City and Region - we can't do anything to understand 
where exactly does the event come from.

Here's an example of such "precise" stats report:

Re: AdHoc Reports and v13 reports different ContentNetwork results?

[veseo]

I figured it out, the ContentNetwork stats, returned by the Keyword 
Performance Reports are outdated and unrealiable and I should use the 
Adgroup Performance Report to get the adgroup's ContentNetwork totals. This 
leads me to the question - why return ANY CN stats in the Keywords 
Performance report? They are both outdated and not relative to a keyword - 
I hate the fact that I need to filter out all keywords with the text 
"Content", as this value is useless (due to being outdated, as I pointed 
out above) anyways.

0 impressions but more than 0 clicks?

[veseo]

Hi,

I was wondering how could a keyword possibly have 0 impressions but more 
than 0 clicks for a single day? I know sometimes statistics are updated 
over the next few days, so I saved the client ID and the keyword text to 
check whether this strange disrepancy is fixed later. The results are the 
following - 12 days later, the keyword still has 0 impressions, but 2 
clicks for February 16th and such keywords keep coming every few days. It's 
small amount of money, but I can't help but think that these are fake 
clicks that we are being charged for. Could anyone explain if that isn't 
true?

AdHoc Reports and v13 reports different ContentNetwork results?

[veseo]

Hi, 

I just noticed the same problem for multiple campaigns - data, downloaded 
by the AdHoc Reports return smaller amount of impressions and clicks for 
ContentNetwork statistics, than the report, downloaded by v13. I checked 
online and the v13 statistics are the correct ones. 

Here's an example:

AdHoc: 3 clicks and 969 impressions
v13: 6 clicks and 1495 impressions (which, according to the interface, are 
the correct statistics)

The strange thing is that I'm downloading the AdHoc reports a bit later 
than the v13 ones (an hour or so) and if there are differences, the AdHoc 
ones should be the "updated" statistics, right? Do v13 and AdHoc reports 
get data from different sources?

I'm not having problems with disrepancies between v13 and AdHoc for Search 
Network stats, only ContentNetwork. Could anybody shed some light what's 
happening, as this is making testing the new reports logic much more 
difficult.

Disapproved keywords returned as enabled by AdHoc reports?

[veseo]

Hi there, we've almost migrated to the new AdHoc version of the keywords 
report but I have a question about the differences between the results, 
returned by the two different versions about the status of the keyword - 
old version (v13) would return "Disapproved" as a separate status, while 
the AdHoc-downloaded report lists the keyword as "enabled". I checked in 
the interface and the keyword really is disapproved, but since disapproved 
keywords do not produce impressions and clicks, I believe it is wrong that 
they are marked as "active"?

I know, but as you see "Broad match modifier" does not exist as an option - 
my question was this - if I add a keyword, starting with a plus sign (i.e. 
+test1) with a matchType of "Broad", does this mean that the keyword is now 
using the Broad Match Modifier, explained in the following link -

Keyword Criterion IDs question

[veseo]

Hello,

We have an MCC account and I noticed that if I add the same keyword (i.e. 
text+match type) for two different clients, the resulting criterion id is 
the same. Is this by design and am I correct that the combination "text + 
match type" is unique, regarding generating the criterion id?

Get MediaService's Image data?

[veseo]

Hi,

is it possible to get an Image's raw data via the API? I need it because I'm 
downloading campaigns and their respective extensions (some of which have 
ImageMediaIds with an existing Image Media objects, but I can't "download" 
the image, only its other properties (which are quite useless, without the 
image itself). The "data" field is not listed as selectable and when I try 
to add it in the list with selected fields as "Data" (I tried even "data", 
just to be sure) I get, as expected, an "SelectorError.INVALID_FIELD_NAME @ 
serviceSelector; trigger:'Data'; errorDetails:Data" error. Is there any 
workaround to get the image data or it this an expected future feature?

Отг: Re: API-created Report Definitions and the GUI

[veseo]

Hi,

I continue to be unable to see API-created definitions in the interface. I 
had been creating them, using the email account I use for all Adwords 
operations (I use another for loging in the web-based interface), thus I 
tried adding one definition with the same email I use to login to the 
interface  as "clientEmail" and one definition using no email at all - none 
of them showed up in the interface. Is there anything that I'm missing so my 
API-created definitions would show up in the interface? I'm attaching the 
request of the last API-added definitions (no clientEmail provided)

My GUI-created definitions also do not show up when making an api request 
for all definitions. As for the problem you mentioned you're experiencing - 
it's understandable, given that some features are not currently present in 
the API (i.e. segments).

I would really like an official support (if possible, an answer to my other 
question in the first post) on this matter.

API-created Report Definitions and the GUI

[veseo]

Hello,

Are the GUI and API synchronised in terms of Report definitions? Neither 
API-created report definitions are shown in the GUI, nor GUI-created ones 
are returned when getting all existing report definitions through the API. 

One more question - how many days after the day has passed we can have our 
clicks/impressions manipulated (I saw that if I get a report just the day 
after and then get it 2-3 days later, there are some differences between 
them)? I'm thinking of running a weekly cronjob for getting the last week's 
statistics and comparing them for differences, but can you provide 
information how many days do I need to wait before running it, so that I can 
be sure that the statistics I would get will be the final ones? What I also 
can't see is if "Segments" from the GUI are supported through the API - I 
need them to split the statistics into days (for the needs of the cronjob I 
mentioned above).

Thanks in advance for the information!

Re: ExperimentService UNEXPECTED_INTERNAL_API_ERROR

[veseo]

Hi Eric,

Thanks for your answer. However I noticed that today that problem is gone, 
without me changing the campaign budget - editing the experiment start/end 
dates work using both the interface and the API. I do not know what has been 
changed, but I can mark this problem as resolved.

ExperimentService UNEXPECTED_INTERNAL_API_ERROR

[veseo]

Hi,

I'm currently implementing ExperimentService in our application, but I 
noticed that whenever I try to include startDateTime and/or endDateTime in 
the format, specified by the examples (Ymd His, for example 20110203 
00), I get UNEXPECTED_INTERNAL_API_ERROR. I double checked and the dates 
I entered are within the campaign's running period, so that's not the 
problem. I also noticed that if I try to set a date from the Adwords 
Interface, I also get "internal error", so I think there's a bigger problem 
than an API-related one?

Placement categories

[veseo]

Hi,

I noticed that by using TargetingIdeaService we could get a placement's 
PLACEMENT_CATEGORY. The problem is that we can do nothing with that category 
ID, especially when we do not have the list of Placement categories, like we 
have with the Keywords categories. I see that a year ago one of the Advisors 
mentioned that there were plans to expose the list of categories in the API 
documentation - that is already done with the keyword categories, what about 
the placement categories?

AdShareSearchParameter and SearchShareSearchParameter explanation

[veseo]

Hello,

I am implementing TargetingIdeaService and I'm having trouble understanding 
and implementing two of the filters - AdShareSearchParameter and 
SearchShareSearchParameter. The problem I am having is the same with both of 
them - no matter what diapason I enter, I get no results. I tried 0.1-0.5, 
0.1-1, even 0.0-1 (which I expected to return an error, but it doesn't) - 
every time totalNumEntries equals to 0. I'm attaching the request and the 
response XML files, I hope someone can help me understand what I am doing 
wrong.

CompetitionSearchParameter meaning?

[veseo]

Can someone explain the meaning and actual usage of this
TargetingIdeaService search parameter? I tried an example with the
word "snickers" with three requests, trying each one of the possible
values (LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH) and got very confusing results - Medium ones
had the lowest search volume, while LOW and HIGH ones had both very low
(3 figures) and quite high (6 figures) search volumes. I'm attaching a
PDF with those results (I hope it's not against Google policy?).


The other search parameters I used are:
CountryTargetSearchParameter - DE and AT
LanguageTargetSearchParameter - de





ideaType - KEYWORD

requestType - IDEAS

INVALID_ENCODED_LOCATION in LocationExtension

[veseo]

Hello,


I'm struggling to edit (which includes delete and then add the new
location) a LocationExtension. We are calling the GeoLocationService to
get encoded location of the extension and then send it, without any
edits, to the CampaignAdExtensionsService. An interesting fact is that
when we are deleting the extension, there's no problem - the generated
encoded location by GeoLocationService is accepted by the
CampaignAdExtensionsService and the extension is deleted. However, when
we are trying to add the new extension, we get the
INVALID_ENCODED_LOCATION error. Here are the request ID-s (I think you
can see the generated XMLs based on them?):
f97e927aa8e796d53784d3f1e3dd1822 - SUCCESSFULL
REMOVE request

2cd9d30c709e59fee56f75aeba21be4d - UNSUCCESSFULL
ADD Request



These requests are made against the sandbox (the request ids are from
sandbox), but the problem shows up at production server too.

Campaign Targeting with ProximityTargets in 201003

Hi, I am developing a service that uses the Google Adwords API to
create and edit campaigns with their respective targetings. However,
when I try to send a campaign that has Geo Targetin that includes
Proximity Target(s), I get an error - "Unmarshalling Error: Unable to

I remember asking how to use iconMediaId and imageMediaId when
mutating a LocationExtension back when only 200909 was available and
the answer was that the API still didn't support  manipulating these

interface. My question is - does 201003 support this now and if yes,
how can we get the "long"s that are expected by the API? Thanks in

AdWords API Re: LocationExtension fields

[veseo]

Hi,

so, using only the API, we could not use iconMediaId and imageMediaId?
Do these fields accept null values, because the documentation says it
expects xsd:long but, at least the sandbox, accepts strings too? Can
we use some default icons, like these from the LBA businessImage and
if yes - where can I get the list of the ids (I guess it's not
Standart_1 to _17 like LBA, as the documentation says it's expecting
xsd:long)?

AdWords API LocationExtension fields

[veseo]

Hello,

I am implementing the CampaignAdExtensionService and got to the point
where I must send the LocationExtension object, where I ran into some
problems:

1) What is the iconMediaId field? I would guess that uses the same
icons from LocalBusinessAds (v13 - 
http://code.google.com/apis/adwords/docs/developer/LocalBusinessAd.html
) but there the values are strings (Standart_1 to _17), while
LocationExtension expects xsd:long? What are the possible values?
2) Similar question - what is the imageMediaId field? The
documentation says nothing specific about it.
3) What is the difference between CampaignAdExtensionService and
AdExtensionOverrideService ?

P.S. I am shocked how unclear and, honestly, unfinished is the v2009
documentation, especially compared to the nearly perfect v13 (and
below) ones. This, combined with the total rework of the API and the
close deadline (you stop v13 support somewhere in April 2010, right?)
makes everything a small nightmare. I am sure I am not alone in
that...

Thanks in advance for the information.

AdWords API BID_TOO_HIGH_FOR_DAILY_BUDGET in AdGroupCriterion

[veseo]

Hello, can we get a list of all available types' max and min values.
For example, operand.bids.maxCpm.amount.microAmount in the
AdGroupCriterion service says  BID_TOO_HIGH_FOR_DAILY_BUDGET when we
send 11000 and we get BID_TOO_SMALL when we send 1. I am confused,
can we get the maximum and minimum values for these (and all other)
fields? Thanks in advance!

have Bulgarian region codes been added to the Region Codes listings,
as in the stats we are getting from Google, we have BG-01 and similar

listings? Given the different codes and the actual cities that the
stats come from, I can logically conclude which region corresponds to
the code, but is that official?

AdWords API Question about a few French cities

[veseo]

I'm not quite sure if that question belongs here or in the general
Adwords group, but since I'm using data from the API documentation, I
think I'll ask here. I'm doing an application in which when the user
selects a french department, the cities from the API list that belong
to it are automatically added in the list of geotargets. I collected
the data succesfully, but two French cities are giving me a headache,
to be more precise - I'm wondering which of them are you referring to.
Here they are:

Pont-de-Beauvoisin, V FR <- is that Le Pont-de-Beauvoisin in the Isère
department or is that Le Pont-de-Beauvoisin in the Savoie department.
Both of them belong to the Rhône-Alpes region, and their population is
somewhat close according to a French tourism website, which one does
the API Docs refer to?

Vouille, T FR <- same situation, is that Vouille in the Deux-Sèvres
department, or is it Vouille in the Vienne department? Again both
belong to the Poitou-Charentes region and their population is close
according to that website. Which one does the API Docs refer to?

The third question is somewhat different, I noticed both "Chalons-sur-
Marne, G FR" and "Chalons-en-Champagne, G FR" in the French cities
list, while wikipedia says Châlons-sur-Marne is the previous name for
Chalons-en-Champagne (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ch%C3%A2lons-en-
Champagne). Could anyone shed some light on that too? Is that the same
city, if yes - why does it exist in the list twice?

Last question is about "La Couronne, U FR". I noticed that both "La
Couronne, U FR" and "La Couronne, T FR" exist, while only the latter
one seems to exist (according to both wikipedia and the tourism
website). Could anyone shed some light if a city La Couronne really
exists in Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur and, if possible, provide it's
department?

Thanks for the answers in advance :)

AdWords API Adding a campaign with both ProximityTarget and City/Region

[veseo]

Hello,

I've been reading about GeoTargeting and I noticed something strange.
The documentation says "A campaign can't have one target encompassing
another target.", while if I try to target both a ProximityTarget and
the city/region the ProximityTarget points in, I can successfully add
the campaign, at least in Sandbox. Is that possible in the production
environment too, or is it an unupdated documentation or I'm doing
something wrong? Values (calculated to meet the criteria (multiply by
100?)) I tested with are:

ProximityTarget:
LAT: 51.482024
LNG: 7.211323
Radius: 25

+

City: Bochum, NW DE

--

ProximityTarget:
LAT: 51.482024
LNG: 7.211323
Radius: 25

+

Region: DE-NW

---

Even trying with that ProximityTarget + Country: DE is also possible
and I'm 100% sure that area is encompassed in Germany. So, concerning
ProximityTargets, probably encompassing is not a problem? Thanks in
advance for your help.

AdWords API Re: One or more input elements failed validation.

[veseo]

Hello,

Sorry for not clarifying that before, yes, I'm trying that in Sandbox
environment. I guess then really discrepancies between the Sandbox and
Production environments are causing the issues. Again, sorry for not
clarifying that again and thanks for your help, I think we are close
to "unraveling the mystery" :)

AdWords API Re: Basic Questions

[veseo]

Hello,

I'd like to ask one basic question too, if the author doesn't mind? Is
every user allowed to add new businesses, and if yes - how is it done
with the API. Documentation says nothing about that so I'm confused.
I'm still trying to figure out why I'm having adding images when I'm
adding a new LocalBusinessAd. Thanks in advance.

AdWords API Is there a way to add businesses through the API?

[veseo]

Hello, I have one question about businesses, as I have some unclear
spots about them. As far as I understand, a LocalBusinessAd "belongs"
to a Business and is connected to it through the Business Key. So,
there should be a way for a user to add a new Business and later
obtain the list of his businesses with getMyBusiness call. Am I right?
If yes, is there a way to add a new Business through the API and if
yes, how? The documentation doesn't say anything about adding a new
business, only for getting current ones and finding new ones. Is
support for that planned for a future version of the webservice?

AdWords API Re: One or more input elements failed validation.

[veseo]

Hello,

Thanks for the answer. No luck using either customIcon nor stockIcon.
I even (by mistake) tried using stockIcon with an  element and
it threw, as expected, "SimpleDeserializer encountered a child
element, which is NOT expected, in something it was trying to
deserialize" error. Here are two of the requests,

http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/actor/next";
soapenv:mustUnderstand="0" xmlns="https://adwords.google.com/api/
adwords/v12">54fda046368de341df11f2bf42f3a9da

this one is using a stockIcon Standard_1, while this one:

http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/actor/next";
soapenv:mustUnderstand="0" xmlns="https://adwords.google.com/api/
adwords/v12">156347e3a2cc163d4e16de5112ae58a9

is using the string you provided for the custom Icon earlier ("/9j/

This is using exactly the base64 encoded string you provided. The
problem is not with the headers, I use the same throughout the sandbox
with no problems. Probably I'm missing some field or something? Can I
use A Business Corp. in the sandbox or should I register my own
business there? I don't think it would put out a image dimensions
error message when the problem lies in the business key, but who
knows?

Thanks for the help!

Hello,

thanks for the answer. I still had no luck with those pictures, how do
you encode them? After getting their contents with file_get_contents()
I base64_encode() them and send that result to the sandbox:

$business_image = file_get_contents('/home/vis/Pictures/
lba_image.jpg');
$business_key = "pdvQA/[EMAIL PROTECTED]@A Business
Corp.!d@(650) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Amphitheatre [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@";

$local_business_ad =
'' . $ad_group_id . '' .
'LocalBusinessAd
A Business Corp.' .
'' .
'   ' . base64_encode($business_image) . '
image' .
''.
'' . $business_key . '
US' .
'Standard_1' .
'Choose from our delicious range now' .
'Pre-order or delivered to your door' .
'http://www.dominos.co.uk/' .
'www.dominos.co.uk';

Am I doing something wrong? I guess it's some small mistake but I
really would like to found out why does that happen. Thanks for your
help so far!

AdWords API Re: One or more input elements failed validation.

[veseo]

Hello,

I had no luck with the same code and just using a jpg picture. Could
you please point me an image you have tested to work? Here are my
variables, all the rest is the sample code:

  $ad_group_id = '74734';
  $business_image = file_get_contents('/home/vis/Pictures/asd.jpg');
  $business_key = "pdvQA/[EMAIL PROTECTED]@A
Business Corp.!d@(650) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Amphitheatre [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@1219393672000!d@";

Also, here's the image I'm using:

AdWords API Re: One or more input elements failed validation.

[veseo]

Hello,

Thanks for the answer. I tried with 96x96 "business image", even with
16x16 "business image" but no luck - still the same message. I'm
wondering if the filetype (.png) is a problem, I'll now try with .jpg
and .gif but I doubt it.

AdWords API Re: One or more input elements failed validation.

[veseo]

As I'm almost sure the problem lies in validating images, I decided to
try the sample code provided in the developers guide and I got some
problems validating images. I get this error:

New local business ad was not created due to the following policy
violations: Error in field: image.data
isExemptable: false
Detail:This image is not of legal dimensions.
Index:0
Trigger:
Code:59

When I use these values for custom icon and business image variables:

$business_image = file_get_contents('/home/vis/Pictures/asd.png'); //
this one is exactly 125x125
$custom_icon = file_get_contents('/home/vis/Pictures/cust.png'); //
this one is exactly 16x16

I also tried setting them to an online link with different sizes (all
of them below the limits, 125x125 and 16x16) but still no luck. Is
there some rules for the images I provide to the  and
 fields, except that they need to be base64_encode()-ed?

AdWords API One or more input elements failed validation.

[veseo]

I'm quite new in developing nusoap applications, but now I need to add
an LocalBusinessAd.

These are the constants I use for the example:

$STATIC_BUSINESS_IMAGE_PATH = "/home/vis/Pictures/
61784_small_1211883307.jpg";
$STATIC_BUSINESS_KEY = "pdvQA/[EMAIL PROTECTED]@A
Business Corp.!d@(650) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Amphitheatre [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@1219393672000!d@";
$STATIC_CUSTOM_ICON = "/home/vis/Pictures/imgad.gif";

The rest are input from a simple POST form.

And here's the part where I generate the request string that I will
send to the call() method after that:




'.$_POST['agid'].'
LocalBusinessAd


'.base64_encode($STATIC_BUSINESS_IMAGE_PATH).'


'.$STATIC_BUSINESS_KEY.'

'.$_POST['cc'].'


'.base64_encode($STATIC_CUSTOM_ICON).'


'.$_POST['desc1'].'

'.$_POST['desc2'].'

'.$_POST['url'].'

'.$_POST['url'].'



When I var_dump the result from the call() method, I get that:

array
  'faultcode' => string 'soapenv:Server.userException' (length=28)
  'faultstring' => string 'One or more input elements failed
validation.' (length=45)
  'detail' =>
array
  'fault' =>
array
  'code' => string '122' (length=3)
  'message' => string 'One or more input elements failed
validation.' (length=45)
  'errors' =>
array
  ...

Any ideas? If you need more info, I'll gladly provide it, as I said
I'm new in nusoap applications.
