I am following the example PHP script for adding a group partition found
here:
https://github.com/googleads/googleads-php-lib/blob/master/examples/AdWords/v201402/ShoppingCampaigns/AddProductPartitionTree.php
The adGroup is created in AdWords and only contains the default Partition
which is of a type UNIT. When I try the following code. I get this error:
attempting change failed:
[AdGroupCriterionError.PRODUCT_PARTITION_ALREADY_EXISTS @
operations[0].operand.criterion,
AdGroupCriterionError.PRODUCT_PARTITION_DOES_NOT_EXIST @
operations[1].operand.criterion.parentCriterionId;
trigger:'TempCriterionId{id=1}']
PHP Code:
$operations = [];
// Create Root
$root = new ProductPartition('SUBDIVISION');
$root->id = -1;
$rootCriterion = new BiddableAdGroupCriterion();
$rootCriterion ->adGroupId = $adGroupId;
$rootCriterion ->criterion = $root;
$rootOperation = new AdGroupCriterionOperation();
$rootOperation->operand = $rootCriterion ;
$rootOperation->operator = 'ADD';
$operations[] = $rootOperation;
// Create bid for product
$value = new ProductOfferId();
$value->value = 'MANCHUCK';
$unit = new ProductPartition('UNIT');
$unit->parentCriterionId = $root->id;
$unit->caseValue = $value;
$biddingStrategyConfiguration = new \BiddingStrategyConfiguration();
$biddingStrategyConfiguration->bids = [];
$cpcBid = new \CpcBid();
$cpcBid->bid = new \Money(20000);
$biddingStrategyConfiguration->bids[] = $cpcBid;
$criterion = new \BiddableAdGroupCriterion();
$criterion->adGroupId = $adGroupId;
$criterion->criterion = $unit;
$criterion->biddingStrategyConfiguration = $biddingStrategyConfiguration;
$operation = new \AdGroupCriterionOperation();
$operation->operand = $criterion;
$operation->operator = 'ADD';
$operations[] = $operation;
// Send the ops to be mutated
try {
$service->mutate($operations);
} catch (\Exception $googleException) {
echo sprintf('attempting change failed: %s',
$googleException->getMessage());
die(2);
}
echo "Done";
If I use the Admin panel to create the unit partition as I want, I see that
3 partitions are created
The default partition is updated to be of type SUBDIVISION
The 2nd partition is the one that contains the item I wanted
The 3rd partition is the fallback for everything else.
I tried to SET the root partition as a SUBDIVISION then add the other two
which failed with the following error:
attempting change failed:
[AdGroupCriterionError.PRODUCT_PARTITION_UNIT_CANNOT_HAVE_CHILDREN @
operations; trigger:'ProductPartition{id=CriterionId{id=*********},
bidSimulatorStatus=null, partitionType=UNIT, parentCriterionId=null,
caseValue=null, decisionPath=[]}']
I then tried to just add the one UNIT partition alone and got an error
stating I'm missing the parentCriterionId:
attempting change failed: [RequiredError.REQUIRED @
operations[0].operand.criterion.parentCriterionId]
So I then tried doing the -1 for that Id and got
attempting change failed:
[AdGroupCriterionError.PRODUCT_PARTITION_DOES_NOT_EXIST @
operations[0].operand.criterion.parentCriterionId;
trigger:'TempCriterionId{id=1}']
I have not tried to remove the default partition and starting with a clean
slate because I do not see that happening through the UI. I have been all
over the docs and the code I pasted above is all I found about the subject.
Is there something I am missing in the docs? Is there a step that might
not be documented? Could there be something with the
account/campaign/adGroup that I need to change that I missed? Any insight
would be helpful.
