Hi, Thanks for sending me the IDs. In the examples you sent me, AdWords may have created two separate IDs because one of your campaigns is a *Search* campaign while the other is a *Display* campaign. I'll double check on this, though, and update this post once I have confirmation.
Just a general tip: you're better off not making any assumptions about which attributes uniquely identify an object beyond what's in our Working with Objects Guide<https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/working-with-objects#understanding-objects> and the documentation on each service and type.
