Hi Google Ads API, I have some questions about how to use Google Ads API "AdwordsUserListService" endpoint to mutate members in the user list programmatically. The documentation is not clear to me and here are my questions.
Please help to clarify how to Hash email properly. In API doc (https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201809/AdwordsUserListService.Member.html), it says say: “*Hashed email address using SHA-256 hash function after normalization.*” But It is unclear to me how to normalize it. I checked other AdWords related documents and I see different ways to formalize data. Based on “Formatting guidelines for uploading hashed data” (in this link https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/7659867?hl=en&ref_topic=6296507): It requires: (1) Include a domain name for all email addresses (for example, gmail.com or hotmail.co.jp) (2) Lowercase all characters (3) Remove any extra spaces before and after, or in between the email address But in the sample python script ("*Or if you use Python, use this script to hash your data files*." provided in this document https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/7474166?hl=en&ref_topic=6296507) it also requires: Remove all the dots in part before '@'. Please help me to clarify what are the exact rules to hash email data.
