Hi, We recently started using the BulkMutateJobService to do our daily AdGroupCriterionOperations for our clients. Basically, we pull data from our database that we want to update, create AdGroupCriterionOperations for them, and then send those operations to google using the BulkMutateJobService or the AdGroupCriterionService (based upon the number of items to update). In other words, the data from the database and how the AdGroupCriterionOperations get created from it is identical regardless of which way we're sending it to google.
It seems to be working fine except for one weird issue. For about half our clients, I see this pattern. An example of what I'm finding is that we might send 1,000 keywords in the bulk job, and when I download the results 15 minutes later, I'll get 20 failures, 0 successes, and 980 batch failures. I resubmit the 20 failures using the synchronus AdGroupCriterionService and they succeed without error every time, and I resubmit the 980 batch failures via the bulk service. I'll get similar results from the next bulk job and do the same thing, and eventually one of the bulk jobs will get a large number of successes and the updates get through. The real question on my part is why for about half the clients, I get failures from the BulkMutateJobService for identical AdGroupCriterionOperations that I can immediately turn around and send successfully through the AdGroupCriterionService. The failures through the BulkMutateJobService are always the same: an EntityNotFound.INVALID_ID error, with a blank "trigger" field (which is supposed to tell me what id caused the failure), and an ognl field path of "operations[1].operations[0]". Does anyone have any idea why I would be getting these identical errors across multiple client accounts via the bulk service, but can then turn around and immediately send the exact same data through the AdGroupCriterionService and have it succeed?
