Hi Vishal,
When I remove the -5 from the extension_setting, the API generates two
distinct sitelinks, rather than one sitelink that gets linked to two
campaigns. I confirmed this by going into the UI and changing the text on
one of them and finding it wasn't changed on the other.
Here's the results:
{
"result": {
"campaign_extension_setting": {
"extension_type": "SITELINK",
"extension_setting": {
"extensions": {
"feed_id": "20505208",
"feed_item_id": "11266444676",
"status": "ENABLED",
"feed_type": "SITELINK",
"extension_feed_item_type": "SitelinkFeedItem",
"sitelink_text": "Store Hours",
"sitelink_final_urls": {
"urls": "http://www.example.com/";
}
},
"platform_restrictions": "NONE"
}
}
},
"index": "12"
},
{
"result": {
"campaign_extension_setting": {
"extension_type": "SITELINK",
"extension_setting": {
"extensions": {
"feed_id": "20505208",
"feed_item_id": "11266444679",
"status": "ENABLED",
"feed_type": "SITELINK",
"extension_feed_item_type": "SitelinkFeedItem",
"sitelink_text": "Store Hours",
"sitelink_final_urls": {
"urls": "http://www.example.com/";
}
},
"platform_restrictions": "NONE"
}
}
},
"index": "13"
}
Notably, I think, the feed item ids are not the same.
Just to be clear, my original problem was not that I was getting a
DUPLICATE_ELEMENT error specifically, but that it wasn't clear how to do
this "single sitelink mapped to multiple campaigns" thing, and that the one
approach I had tried had that particular error.
Thanks again for the help!
