Hi!
I have a problem with creating extensions on account level through the API
(v201603, PHP).
In new account where there are no structured snippet extensions I am
creating new feed for structured snipped extensions and new extension in it
and on Campaigns / Ad Extensions screen I don't see it in account. Also I
get this error:
"There was an error with your operation. If you were trying to make a
change, it may not have saved. Please refresh this page to try again.
If the error continues, log out of your AdWords account, then log in again
and return to this page. "
Here is the workflow:
First I search for existing feeds through the API, here is my AWQL query:
SELECT Id, Name, Attributes WHERE FeedStatus="ENABLED" AND Name IN ["_Main
structured snippet feed", "Main structured snippet feed"]
I get nothing.
When I try to create "_Main structured snippet feed" I get
FeedError.INVALID_FEED_NAME.
But when I create it without "_" at first all seems fine and the feed and
extension are created successfully, but I get this error "There was an
error with your operation..." http://screencloud.net/v/2Fz5 on the
Campaigns / Ad extensions screen (http://screencloud.net/v/i6d9)
And the extension is not visible in this tab.
But when I try to create new extension manually in the default feed - I see
both feeds
http://screencloud.net/v/tSc5
, and after creating it in "_Main..." account - it is available, but
"Main..." account created through the api seems broken:
http://screencloud.net/v/nlUa
If there are already at least one extension in "_Main..." feed - it is
available through the API and everything is fine. But in new accounts when
there are no extensions this feed is unavailable, but seems like existing
and hidden.
Here is this extension feed in Shared Library:
http://screencloud.net/v/x69p
http://screencloud.net/v/50EC
And I don't see any difference with the extension I created manually
through the adwords interface:
http://screencloud.net/v/ukt3
http://screencloud.net/v/p0Wt
Can somebody explain what am I doing wrong or how can I retrieve default
"_Main structured snippet feed" when there are no extensions in it?
Here is my Php code for creating feed and structured snippet extension:
// Get the FeedService, which loads the required classes.
$feedService = $user->GetService('FeedService', self::ADWORDS_VERSION);
$attributeName = self::EXT_SNIPPET_ATTRIBUTE_NAME;
$placeholderType = self::EXT_PLACEHOLDER_SNIPPET;
// Create attributes.
$textAttribute = new \FeedAttribute();
$textAttribute->type = 'STRING';
$textAttribute->name = $attributeName;
// Create the feed.
$feed = new \Feed();
$feed->name = $feedName;
$feed->attributes = [$textAttribute];
$feed->origin = 'USER';
// Additional snippet fields
$valueAttribute = new \FeedAttribute();
$valueAttribute->type = 'STRING_LIST';
$valueAttribute->name = self::EXT_SNIPPET_ATTRIBUTE_NAME_ADDITIONAL;
$feed->attributes[] = $valueAttribute;
// Create operation.
$operation = new \FeedOperation();
$operation->operator = 'ADD';
$operation->operand = $feed;
$operations = [$operation];
// Add the feed.
$result = self::mutate($feedService, $operations);
$savedFeed = $result->value[0];
// now we need to map this feed according to $type
$feedMappingService = $user->GetService('FeedMappingService', self::
ADWORDS_VERSION);
// Map the FeedAttributeIds to the fieldId constants.
$textFieldMapping = new \AttributeFieldMapping();
$textFieldMapping->feedAttributeId = $savedFeed->attributes[0]->id;
$textFieldMapping->fieldId = 1;
$feedMapping = new \FeedMapping();
$feedMapping->placeholderType = $placeholderType;
$feedMapping->feedId = $savedFeed->id;
$feedMapping->attributeFieldMappings = [$textFieldMapping];
$operation = new \FeedMappingOperation();
$operation->operand = $feedMapping;
$operation->operator = 'ADD';
$operations = [$operation];
// Save the field mapping.
$result = self::mutate($feedMappingService, $operations);
