Hello, You say "I get that error back when I add in my keywords to this", but it's extremely unlikely that the error message you posted initially was generated as a result of a call to addCriteria(). I was able to look up the request associated with the error response and it was an addAdGroup() request, not a request to add keywords. Additionally, keywords don't have a "name" property.
Please take a look at the SOAP request logs on your end and see if there are multiple calls being made to addAdGroup(). You should also be able to verify that the error being returned is associated with an addAdGroup() call and not an addCriteria() call by looking at local logs on your end.
