Hey mm,
Yeah this was working before. I did afew follow up tests and it looks
like validateOnly doesn't work period. I tested both add, delete and
update keyword operations and after the validateOnly call had been
completed the changes were visible from adwords website. I've included
the SOAP log below just for reference purposes for the following 3
calls.
Remove Operation (first with validateOnly then without validate, it
appears executing a remove with validateOnly actually removes the
keyword)
Update Operation Set Paused (first with validateOnly then without
validate, it appears executing an update with validateOnly actually
updates the keyword)
Add Operation (first with validateOnly then without validate, it
appears executing an add with validateOnly actually adds the keyword)
I wonder if this might be related to Google making changes to
partialFailure to support something in keywords which has caused it to
ignore the validateOnly flag when it shouldn't be.
validateOnly (optional)
If set to true, the request is validated but not performed. The
cost of the request is reduced to 0.05 API units per item, rounded up
to the nearest integer. You can use this header to inexpensively
validate user-provided data.
partialFailure (optional; v201008+: AdGroupCriterionService; v201109+:
AdGroupAdService)
If set to true, the service will perform error-free operations and
return the failing operations' errors. This header is ignored for non-
mutate operations.

Remove Operation (first with validateOnly then without validate, it
appears executing a remove with validateOnly actually removes the
keyword)
