I have an urgent problem: The TargetingIdeaService used to work fine -
until yesterday. There were no changes in the coding, but suddenly the
TargetingIdeaService is producing an exception
[TargetingIdeaError.INVALID_ATTRIBUTE_TYPE @ selector;
trigger:'CRITERION']. According to the doc, this exception could happen if
the IdeaType would be IdeaType.PLACEMENT along with an
AttributeType.CRITERION, understandably so. But our IdeaType is
IdeaType.KEYWORD as it always was, so this looks like a bug introduced
today. Any remedies are urgently needed. Here is our basic code snippet:
Dim targetingIdeaService As TargetingIdeaService =
user.GetService(AdWordsService.v201109_1.TargetingIdeaService)
' Create the selector.
Dim selector As New TargetingIdeaSelector
selector.requestType = RequestType.IDEAS
selector.ideaType = IdeaType.KEYWORD
selector.requestedAttributeTypes = New AttributeType()
{AttributeType.CRITERION, AttributeType.AVERAGE_TARGETED_MONTHLY_SEARCHES}
' Define paging to limit results.
Dim paging As New Paging
paging.startIndex = 0
paging.numberResults = 200
selector.paging = paging
' Create related to url search parameter.
Dim relatedToUrlSearchParameter As New RelatedToUrlSearchParameter
relatedToUrlSearchParameter.urls = New String() {url}
' Landesweit
Dim Location As New Location
Location.id = GCountryId
Dim locationSearchParameter As New LocationSearchParameter
locationSearchParameter.locations = New Location() {Location}
selector.searchParameters = New SearchParameter()
{relatedToUrlSearchParameter}
Dim strMsg As String = ""
Try
Dim page As TargetingIdeaPage =
targetingIdeaService.get(selector)
' Code removed, here the Keywords are saved, but it doesn't get
here anyway
Catch ex As Exception
strMsg = "Failed to retrieve related keywords. Exception says "
& ex.InnerException.Message
End Try
