We saw an instance on the 28th where we only passed REMOVE operators to the AdGroupCriterionService for a Keyword Criterion, and the criterion were removed, but also re-added / mutated because the destination urls were different;
I did not think this was the expected behavior, especially since we're only creating REMOVE operations. I do not have the raw soap xml, but the requestIds are listed below >From adwords UI, this is the same entry for a single change history ... a delete & modify 3 Destination URL Changes keyword1: Destination URL changed from XXX to Default URL "keyword1": Destination URL changed from XXX to Default URL [keyword1]: Destination URL changed from XXX to Default URL 3 Keywords Deleted ["keyword1", [keyword], keyword] 2012-02-28 21:29:51,759 DEBUG request_info - email=x...@gmail.com effectiveUser=7511703949 service=AdGroupCriterionService method=mutate operators={REMOVE: 6} responseTime=377 operations=6 units=6 requestId=0004ba0cecfc67480ae78945000012ae server=https://adwords.google.com isFault=false faultMessage=null 2012-02-28 21:29:52,903 DEBUG request_info - email=x...@gmail.com effectiveUser=7511703949 service=AdGroupCriterionService method=mutate operators={REMOVE: 3} responseTime=327 operations=3 units=3 requestId=0004ba0ced0f5ec00ae7465200006d25 server=https://adwords.google.com isFault=false faultMessage=null 2012-02-28 21:29:54,021 DEBUG request_info - email=x...@gmail.com effectiveUser=7511703949 service=AdGroupCriterionService method=mutate operators={REMOVE: 3} responseTime=405 operations=3 units=3 requestId=0004ba0ced1f45100ae7e3d10000582d server=https://adwords.google.com isFault=false faultMessage=null 2012-02-28 21:29:56,148 DEBUG request_info - email=x...@gmail.com effectiveUser=7511703949 service=AdGroupCriterionService method=mutate operators={REMOVE: 6} responseTime=295 operations=6 units=6 requestId=0004ba0ced414fe80ae76847000021f1 server=https://adwords.google.com isFault=false faultMessage=null 2012-02-28 21:29:58,285 DEBUG request_info - email=x...@gmail.com effectiveUser=7511703949 service=AdGroupCriterionService method=mutate operators={REMOVE: 3} responseTime=392 operations=3 units=3 requestId=0004ba0ced6097b80ae707c800002333 server=https://adwords.google.com isFault=false faultMessage=null 2012-02-28 21:29:59,252 DEBUG request_info - email=x...@gmail.com effectiveUser=7511703949 service=AdGroupCriterionService method=mutate operators={REMOVE: 3} responseTime=310 operations=3 units=3 requestId=0004ba0ced7095780ae78945000012ae server=https://adwords.google.com isFault=false faultMessage=null 2012-02-28 21:30:01,219 DEBUG request_info - email=x...@gmail.com effectiveUser=7511703949 service=AdGroupCriterionService method=mutate operators={REMOVE: 3} responseTime=256 operations=3 units=3 requestId=0004ba0ced8f68180ae753d2000012bc server=https://adwords.google.com isFault=false faultMessage=null 2012-02-28 21:30:02,117 DEBUG request_info - email=x...@gmail.com effectiveUser=7511703949 service=AdGroupCriterionService method=mutate operators={REMOVE: 3} responseTime=140 operations=3 units=3 requestId=0004ba0ced9ef0a80ae7e3d10000582d server=https://adwords.google.com isFault=false faultMessage=null Some clarification would be great Thanks Pete -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog and discussion group: http://adwordsapi.blogspot.com http://groups.google.com/group/adwords-api =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.
