Re: Change a campaign from shared budget to individual budget through the API
Hello Shawn,
Sorry for the delay, I was away for a bit.
Yes, you need to create a budget, but with the BudgetService, setting
isExplicitlyShared to false. You'll get an ID back.
Then, you can create a campaign with budget ID set to the ID above. We have
code examples for each of the client libraries demonstrating that:

Re: Change a campaign from shared budget to individual budget through the API
Hi Danial,
What would the basic flow of this be? Use BudgetOrderService to create a
new budget with a unique name, set as a non-shared budget, then attach it
to that campaign?
Here's the backstory: I have an MCC accounts with 1300 accounts inside.
Each account has about 20 campaigns, so I have about 26,000 campaigns.
Today each one is setup with a shared budget ("shared with" only one
campaign though, so it's not really being "shared"). But we started using
Kenshoo as a bid management platform, and I'm afraid when Kenshoo sends
budget changes to the campaigns, AdWords shared budgets are causing issues.
Maybe it's not since the budgets aren't actually shared among multiple
campaigns, so I need to check into that. But the Kenshoo team did ask me
to remove the shared budgets, and it looks like I have no option to do that
other than use the API.
I'm familiar with scripting in AdWords, but the API is a whole other beast.
But still, using it should be faster than manually editing 26,000
campaigns!
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Change a campaign from shared budget to individual budget through the API
Is it possible to change a campaign from a shared budget to an individual budget through Adwords API? Im not interested in creating a new Shared Budget and applying it to a single campaign, since that creates a shared budget object but just for that campaign, and that shared budget cannot be modified in bulk. The only way I have been able to do so is by using the Web Application, in which you can set again the individual budget. But through the API any attempt made is answered with a BudgetError.CANNOT_EDIT_SHARED_BUDGET, while the thing im trying is not to edit the shared budget but to set an individual budget just for that campaign. -- -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog and discussion group: http://adwordsapi.blogspot.com http://groups.google.com/group/adwords-api =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups AdWords API Forum group.
