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).
