Hi Sérgio, I tried to create the campaign using the adwords webinterface, which didn't work. It states "You can't create a Shopping campaign until you link your AdWords account within a Google Merchant Center account." Can I create a shopping campaign and some test product dimentsions via API? I have to admit, that I haven't tried it that way.
Thanks for your help!
