Is this behavior new? Previously (for >8 years) you could only update the ad status, and this is also mentioned in the docs.
To achieve the behavior, you should delete the ad, and create a similar ad with the new destination URL. Note that you loose the statistics of the original ad - so if we can now update other attributes of ads I'd like to know!
