This part was bit trick but if anyone comes looking in the future. - Essentially you have to add empty fields to the update mask.

According to the Google Ads API documentation: - In the MaximizeConversionValue <https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/reference/rpc/v16/MaximizeConversionValue)> strategy, setting a value for *target_roas* is optional. - In the MaximizeConversions <https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/reference/rpc/v16/MaximizeConversions> strategy, *target_cpa_micros* is optional. - For the TargetSpend <https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/reference/rpc/v16/TargetSpend> strategy, *target_spend_micros* is optional and deprecated. All of the above are also reflected in Google ADS UI. Here is the code I'm using: ```python operation = client.get_type("CampaignOperation") service = client.get_service("CampaignService") campaign = self.operation.update campaign.resource_name = self.service.campaign_path(self.customer_id, google_campaign.campaign_id) campaign.bidding_strategy_type = client.enums.BiddingStrategyType.TARGET_SPEND target_spend = self.client.get_type("TargetSpend") client.copy_from(destination=campaign.target_spend, origin=target_spend) client.copy_from( destination=self.operation.update_mask, origin=protobuf_helpers.field_mask(original=None, modified=self.operation.update._pb) ) ``` Could you please provide an example of how to set the bidding strategy to `target_spend`, `maximize_conversion_value`, or `maximize_conversions` without specifying the optional target value?
