Hi,

Starting last night around 7 pm PDT, we are seeing the bids object being 
null instead of an empty array for subdivisions (v201502). In other words, 
in a BiddableAdGroupCriterion object, bids on the 
BiddingStrategyConfiguration object is now unexpectedly null. Is this a 
planned change? As always, changes like these outside of an API release, 
are likely to break existing API implementations as is the case for us and 
a large number of clients. Here's an example output of the 
BiddingStrategyConfiguration:

criterion.biddingStrategyConfiguration

{Google.AdWords.WebService.BiddingStrategyConfiguration}
    biddingScheme: null
    biddingSchemeField: null
    biddingStrategyId: 0
    biddingStrategyIdField: 0
    biddingStrategyIdFieldSpecified: false
    biddingStrategyIdSpecified: false
    biddingStrategyName: null
    biddingStrategyNameField: null
    biddingStrategySource: CAMPAIGN
    biddingStrategySourceField: CAMPAIGN
    biddingStrategySourceFieldSpecified: false
    biddingStrategySourceSpecified: false
    biddingStrategyType: MANUAL_CPC
    biddingStrategyTypeField: MANUAL_CPC
    biddingStrategyTypeFieldSpecified: true
    biddingStrategyTypeSpecified: true
    bids: null
    bidsField: null

(Interestingly enough, we noticed what appears to be a similar change on 
Google's side earlier this week, although it may not be related at all. For 
a SharedBiddingStrategy object of type TARGET_SPEND, the biddingScheme came 
back as null. Not sure if these are bidding strategies that have been auto 
migrated from another type. We could not repro that creating new bidding 
strategies of type TARGET_SPEND).

Thanks,
Hans
