Re: How to Delete a campaign?
What is probably happening (when you create a new campaign with the same name) is that the adwords interface is simply setting the status of the deleted campaign back to ACTIVE for you behind the scenes. A good practice is to rename deleted campaigns by adding *_deleted* to their name. This way you can create a new campaign with the same name.

Re: How to Delete a campaign?
Hey, I agree with you. But there is one problem. When I create a campaign with the help of adwords api and set its status to DELETE. I cannot create a new campaign with same name. But When I manually create a campaign and delete it(manually). I can create a campaign with same name. So, please tell me how can I rectify this problem.

Re: How to Delete a campaign?
When you delete a campaign though the adwords web interface, all you're doing is setting its status to DELETED behind the scenes. There is no such a thing as deleting campaigns (or indeed any other adwords entity). Deleting anything is done by setting its status to DELETED.

How to Delete a campaign?
Hey, I have already seen similar questions and as far as I know we cannot delete a campaign using adwords api. We can only set its status to DELETE. 1. I created a campaign using adwords api and now i want to delete it. So, I deleted the campaign manually from my adwords account. But, when I run GetAllCampaigns.java it is still showing those campaigns. I want to know how can I completely remove its object so that I can recreate a campaign with the same name. 2. Also, I created a campaign manually using my adwords account and then I was able to delete it successfully(of course manually). So, I guess there is something we need to do in adwords api.

Re: How to delete a Campaign?
Actually campaign objects are never deleted. They get their status set to deleted, but they still exist, check the status field of the one you tried to delete.

Yeah I ran DeleteCampaign.php it said that it deleted it, but then I run GetAllCampaigns.php And it pulls back it again, Does it take a while to actually get deleted?
