Hello :)
Issue is when we use your code
{ "operations": [ { "create": { "name": "demand gen campaign233",
"advertisingChannelType": "DEMAND_GEN", "status": "ENABLED",
"campaignBudget":
"customers/{customerId}/campaignBudgets/{campaign_budget_id}", "targetCpa":
{ "targetCpaMicros": 10000 } } } ] } { "results": [ { "resourceName":
"customers/{customerId}/campaigns/{campaignId}" } ] }
We find Target Cost Per Action option in the campaign which I dont need. I
need to create campaign without Target Cost Per Action.
How I can do this ??
Thanks
