Starting in v201402, it appears we can no longer set the bidding strategy to enhanced cpc for new campaigns. Here is the SOAP request and response:

I'm hoping it doesn't mean we have to deal with another service in order to set simple campaign settings, as having to do so for campaign criterion and campaign budget has resulted in increased code complexity with no visible gain for us. -- -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog and Google+: https://googleadsdeveloper.blogspot.com/ https://plus.google.com/+GoogleAdsDevelopers/posts =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API Forum" group.
