Hello, I'm trying to change the Max CPC of a Managed Placement, but I got stuck in the error CRITERIA_TYPE_INVALID_FOR_BIDDING_STRATEGY_CONFIGURATION, regardless of the alteration (getting the BiddableAdGroupCriterion and sending it back throws the error).
We're using v201309 API's version, and we can make the alteration via UI. We're using the following code (this is only a lab I've done to reproduce the error): AdWordsUser user = new AdWordsUser(); using (AdGroupCriterionService servico = (AdGroupCriterionService)user.GetService(AdWordsService.v201309.AdGroupCriterionService)) { servico.RequestHeader.clientCustomerId = test_clientCustomerId.ToString(); Selector selector = new Selector(); selector.fields = new string[] { "AdGroupId", "Id", "CriterionUse", "Status", "CpcBidSource" }; Predicate adGroupPredicate = new Predicate() { field = "AdGroupId", @operator = PredicateOperator.EQUALS, values = new string[] { test_adGroupId.ToString() } }; Predicate keywordPredicate = new Predicate() { field = "Id", @operator = PredicateOperator.EQUALS, values = new string[] { test_keywordId.ToString() } }; Predicate keywordStatus = new Predicate() { field = "Status", @operator = PredicateOperator.IN, values = new string[] { UserStatus.ACTIVE.ToString() } }; Predicate criterionUsePredicate = new Predicate() { field = "CriterionUse", @operator = PredicateOperator.EQUALS, values = new string[] { CriterionUse.BIDDABLE.ToString() } }; selector.predicates = new Predicate[] { adGroupPredicate, keywordPredicate, keywordStatus, criterionUsePredicate }; DateRange dateRange = new DateRange() { min = string.Format("{0:yyyyMMdd}", DateTime.Today), max = string.Format("{0:yyyyMMdd}", DateTime.Today) }; selector.dateRange = dateRange; // returns only one entry AdGroupCriterionPage adGroupCriterionPage = servico.get(selector); if (adGroupCriterionPage != null && adGroupCriterionPage.entries != null) { AdGroupCriterion adGroupCriterion = adGroupCriterionPage.entries[0]; BiddableAdGroupCriterion biddableAdGroupCriterion = (BiddableAdGroupCriterion)adGroupCriterion; CpcBid keywordMaxCpc = new CpcBid() { bid = new Money() { // Current CPC is 0.54, I'm trying to change to 0.53 microAmount = Convert.ToInt64(Math.Round(test_newCpc * 1000000, 2)) } }; biddableAdGroupCriterion .biddingStrategyConfiguration .bids = new Bids[] { keywordMaxCpc }; // don't set any bidding strategy type biddableAdGroupCriterion .biddingStrategyConfiguration .biddingStrategyType = BiddingStrategyType.NONE; AdGroupCriterionOperation keywordOperation = new AdGroupCriterionOperation(); keywordOperation.@operator = Operator.SET; keywordOperation.operand = adGroupCriterion; // throws the following exception: // {"[AdGroupCriterionError.CRITERIA_TYPE_INVALID_FOR_BIDDING_STRATEGY_CONFIGURATION @ operations[0].operand.criterion]"} AdGroupCriterionReturnValue retVal = servico.mutate(new AdGroupCriterionOperation[] { keywordOperation }); } } Is there another way to change the Max CPC from Managed Placements?
