AdWords API Inserting Negative KW on v2009 API

[Ben Brooks]

 

I am having trouble adding negative keywords to a campaign in the new 2009
API.  If I specify the type it doesn't affect anything.

Any help is appreciated.

Ben.

 

Here is my request:

 

<soap:Body>

    <mutate xmlns="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/cm/v200906";>

      <operations>

        <operator>ADD</operator>

        <operand>

          <campaignId>XXXXX</campaignId>

          <criterion xsi:type="Keyword">

            <text>career</text>

            <matchType>BROAD</matchType>

          </criterion>

</operand>

      </operations>

      <operations>

        <operator>ADD</operator>

        <operand>

          <campaignId>XXXXXX</campaignId>

          <criterion xsi:type="Keyword">

            <text>hiring</text>

            <matchType>BROAD</matchType>

          </criterion>

          <CampaignCriterion.Type>Keyword</CampaignCriterion.Type>

        </operand>

      </operations>

      <operations>

        <operator>ADD</operator>

        <operand>

          <campaignId>49430996</campaignId>

          <criterion xsi:type="Keyword">

            <text>interns</text>

            <matchType>BROAD</matchType>

          </criterion>

          <CampaignCriterion.Type>Keyword</CampaignCriterion.Type>

        </operand>

      </operations>

      <operations>

        <operator>ADD</operator>

        <operand>

          <campaignId>49430996</campaignId>

          <criterion xsi:type="Keyword">

            <text>job</text>

            <matchType>BROAD</matchType>

          </criterion>

       </operand>

      </operations>

    </mutate>

  </soap:Body>

</soap:Envelope>

 

Here is my response:
