Are Custom Parameters on Ad Objects Immutable?

Hi all, as the title says, I was looking for clarification as to whether changing any custom parameters on ad objects also implies having to delete the old ad and create a new one. From my understanding, the answer should be yes, but the documentation isn't quite clear on it: > *Note: Ad objec

Thanks for your response, As you said, this is exactly what I did. Including a metric field will only return the rows pertaining to that metric, so I then used the includeZeroImpression = true flag, this is what I want all the keywords with their ApprovalStatuses. However, this flag includes

Re: Are Custom Parameters on Ad Objects Immutable?

Hello Dorian, Custom parameters (values) are part of the campaign object, these are mutable. You can't add/remove the parameters (placeholders) to/from the existing ad tracking template though. -Danial, AdWords API Team. On Wednesday, June 24, 2015 at 9:18:21 AM UTC+2, Dorian Kind wrote: >

Re: Creating image with base 64 byte array returns invalid image v201502

Hi Vince, I think that what's happening here is that the SOAP toolkit is performing the base64 encoding for you, so if you base64 encode the value as well, you're double-encoding and that leads to the error. For example, in the Java client library, the type of the Image.data field

Hello, It looks like you are nesting one too many maps deep. You shouldn't need to explicitly set the :xsi_type of the AdGroupCriterionOperation, since there's only one type of operation accepted by the AdGroupCriterionService. Notice how your :operand in the operation variable also has an :ope

Hello Salman, Here's an update based on talking to some of the API engineers. The status field in the reporting API represents slightly different data than in the UI. - In the AdWords user interface, *REMOVED* means that your ads won't serve there. - In the API, *REMOVED* means that
