Re: Correct way to change ads so that UI change history makes sense
Hello Martin, Please check with the AdWords support: https://support.google.com/adwords/ The team should be more aware of the UI specifics and bug report process. -Danial, AdWords API Team.

Re: Correct way to change ads so that UI change history makes sense
Hi Danaial, Thank you for your reply. I understand that ads can't be changed. What I'm looking for is a way to mimic the bulk edit that's available through the UI. In that case the history is correctly rendered. These seems like a small issue, however it confuses my clients when they review the changes I've done. If it weren't possible to replicate the same behaviour vis API and as you suggest it's a bug in the UI, where should I post the bug report? Or can you let the UI team know? Thank you!

Correct way to change ads so that UI change history makes sense
Hi, I am making changes to our adds sending a REMOVE operator followed by an ADD operator in a batch of operations using the mutate_job_service. If I am just editing one ad per adgroup this is shown nicely in the UI Change History as Text ad changed. However, if I'm changing two ads, it shows up as a deletion, an addition and a change. How should I do to get a coherent change history? I have tried switching the order of the operations and the result is the same.
