AdWords API Illegal Characters
Hi, What are the illegal characters in plain text when using the Adwords API? I understand the following so far: * The API library (for .net at least) encodes for XML validity for you. * the characters sent must be in UTF-8 * _(_ and _,_ and _)_ and _...@_ are illegal characters. Who else knows of characters that cannot be used?

AdWords API Re: Terms for creating a service with adwords api...
Hello, If/when you activate your AdWords API Developer token you need to agree to our terms and conditions, which provide the authoritative description of what you are allowed to do using the API. Assuming you've already gone through the process, you can review the terms and conditions by logging in to https://adwords.google.com/ using your MCC account's credentials, clicking on the "My Account" tab and then the "AdWords API Center" sub-tab. At the bottom of that page you'll see a link to view the AdWords API terms and conditions in a new window.

AdWords API Re: Developer and Application Token Disapproved
Hello, If you plan on letting external users use your application and charging for use then "Advertiser" isn't the right classification. The "Advertiser" classification implies that you're writing an internal program for your own use, to manage ads for your own products. It sound like you might be an "Independent Software Developer"?

AdWords API Re: XML encoding.
Hello Phil,
Yes, the error you describe is coming from Microsoft's XML
serialization library code. You say that it happens when serializing
integers--what makes you think that? Any how is it that you're passing
in anything other than the characters 0-9 for an integer value?
I'd think that if you break into the debugger when this exception is
through there should be some way to get more information about the
error from inspecting the exception's properties--Visual Studio's
debugger is usually pretty good about that. Unfortunately, if this
error is occurring during XML serialization as you suggest, it's
unlikely that you would be able to turn on logging to see the XML
being generated, as it's the XML generation itself that is failing.
Cheers,
-Jeff Posnick, AdWords API Team

AdWords API Re: Sandbox: Over 2000 adgroups per campaign comes back as 'Failed Validation'
Hello Phil, Yes, I do believe that you're getting that SOAP fault because an attempt to go over 2000 ad groups in a given campaign can't be processed. There's a similar limit in the Production AdWords service, last I checked. The error message you describe is rather terse. Is there anything in the detail element of the SOAP fault that you get back that elaborates further on the error?

AdWords API Re: XML encoding.
Hi Jeff.
The parse int thingy was the only error I was digging up. It turns out
to have been a red herring.
I did some further investigation and it appeared that
A. I don't need to encode for XML it is handled by the .net xml
object.
B. The problem wasn't XML encoding it was other special characters and
length that was being thrown as XML errors.
I found an error (turning on logging) telling be that ( and ) and ,
were illegal - so I got rid of them. Then I found that @ was illegal.
Also I found that some of the errors are to do with the length of
criterion. I think I have found most of the illegal things now. I
couldn't find an illegal character list and haven't dug around for a
style sheet.
Cheers
Phil

AdWords API Re: Sandbox: Over 2000 adgroups per campaign comes back as 'Failed Validation'
I am afraid that the error is as terse as I present it. I haven't dug deeper to find anything else after I found a thread on here saying that others had hit the same limit. - I resorted to belief at this point and moved on assuming 'production' would be ok. Are you saying that there is a 2000 adgroup limit while running in adgroups through the API at all times? Even if the campaign already has more than that in it already? This would be a rather intense problem if that is the case. I am currently developing a system to run in and maintain upwards of 2705 adgroups.so will need to add/pause/ unpause adgroups within this campaign. If I can't do that through the API, this is a big issue. Can you point me at the documentation of these limits?

Hello Phil,
Are you saying that the AdWords SOAP service returns a fault back
complaining that your ad or keyword has illegal characters in it? The
policies in place for checking ads submitted via the API are the same
as those for ads submitted using the AdWords web interface. There are
a couple of AdWords help center articles about characters that can and
cannot appear in various AdWords objects:

Great. Thank you.
However, these errors are coming back as XML errors before the query
is sent.
It doesn't seem to like (,)@% in the text of a keyword phrase.

AdWords API Re: Illegal Characters
Thanks, I have checked over, and it doesn't cover the characters above in Keyword Phrases. Not to worry, I will just work around any characters that the API library doesn't seem to like if there is no list given anywhere. I am processing files from other sources into Adgroups etc. So I have no guranteed of the characters that are in those files. I will just build up my ignore list as I go.

AdWords API Re: Google::Adwords v1.12 Perl module (support for v13)
Yes, thank you very much for your continued support of this library, Rohan. For all of our Perl developers out there: we do understand that sunsetting AdWords API v12 on February 23 leaves only a short amount of time for you to update your systems to use the new Google::Adwords release. We're going to keep the "public" sunset date of February 23 posted on the blog, and we do encourage developers to update their code as soon as they can, but I've gotten approvals from the rest of the team to keep v12 running and accepting requests until March 9. Hopefully that will give everyone enough time to upgrade.

AdWords API Re: Sunsetting v12 on February 23, 2009
Google::Adwords with support for v13 is now out, and we'll keep v12 running until March 9 to accommodate Perl developers who need to upgrade: http://groups.google.com/group/adwords-api/browse_thread/thread/30d25cc3eadb725b As we've previously announced on our blog (http:// adwordsapi.blogspot.com/2008/12/preview-of-2009-adwords-api- changes.html), the next release of the AdWords API will contain numerous fundamental changes. All of the client libraries will need significant updates to support the next release. I can't specifically comment on the future of Google::Adwords at this time, though.

AdWords API Re: Auto content bids
Hello Bryan, Not setting anything for the keywordContentMaxCpc of a given ad group should be equivalent to having it set to use auto content bids.

AdWords API Re: Sandbox: Over 2000 adgroups per campaign comes back as 'Failed Validation'
Hello Phil, My understanding of the default AdWords production setup is that each campaign is limited to 2000 ad groups. You can obviously have multiple campaigns per account, and the 2000 ad group limit applies to each of the campaigns individually. I'm not aware of any public documentation for these limits, though they should be in effect regardless of whether you're using the API or the AdWords web interface to manage your accounts. There might be some flexibility to waive the limits (for both the web interface and the API) on a one-off basis if you work with your AdWords account representative at Google, and if you currently have a campaign with over 2000 ad groups then perhaps that's what happened. That's outside of the scope of what I normally deal with involving the API, so I can't comment authoritatively.

Thanks Jeff. Is it possible to change from a specific content bid to Auto using the API? Does a null content bid always mean Auto in a content campaign?

AdWords API Re: Auto content bids
Hello Bryan, If you make an updateAdGroup() call and explicitly set the keywordContentMaxCpc value to 0, that's equivalent to setting the ad group to auto content bids. You can confirm by checking in the AdWords web interface after making the update. Cheers, -Jeff Posnick, AdWords API Team On Feb 17, 6:02 pm, bryanjj wrote: > Thanks Jeff.

AdWords API just want to debug the demo of get_keyword_variations.php
hi,i want to use some Adwords api.
and i have got developer_token and application_token,
i use the demo of get_keyword_variations.php .

variation
(s). List of popular queries with given seed has 0 variation(s).",
it shows maybe the method of getKeywordVariations not work rightly.
i don't want to use APIlity,just to debug this.tks.
The code of get_keyword_variations.php is below and
i have replace the email and others using myown information
and i can provide the right information about the email and password
if necessary.
