Re: Getting Null response for some keywords requests
Hi Josh,
My issue is that some parameters of the keywords estimations are coming as
null. So I make the request with success but some in some responses a few
parameters are null, for example cpc max = nulll cpc min = null.
If I try the same keyword with the same value in python for example instead
of null I get zero.
I can build exception on my script but do you have any idea why this is
happening?

Re: Getting Null response for some keywords requests
Hi Jorge,
The keywords that are returning null for those values probably do not have
enough search volume for AdWords to produce meaningful statistics. Starting
in v201406 (see the release notes
https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/#v201406):
Changes to displayed values
- TrafficEstimatorService will no longer return a 0 for a derived field
if its denominator is zero; it will omit the field entirely.
Therefore, your code should handle nulls gracefully. I'll make a note of
this so we update our code example accordingly.
Cheers,
Josh, AdWords API Team

Re: Getting Null response for some keywords requests
Hi Jorge,
From your other post
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/adwords-api/XMjKcLk_Ck4/4KkbLXHb2QsJ I
thought you had resolved this issue. Also, when you say you get a null
response, do you mean you get a SOAP fault back?
Thanks,
Josh, AdWords API Team
