Hello, We are working on migrating our sitelinks to use upgraded URLs. We are using feed services to create sitelinks with link text going in attribute #1 and the URL in attribute #2. New sitelinks are created with upgraded URLs that are stored with attribute #2 (attribute #2 is of type URL_LIST). For old sitelinks that have destination URLs attribute #2 is of type URL. Ideally we would like to maintain consistency across the system and have attribute #2 always correspond to an upgraded URL for *both* new and migrated sitelinks. To migrate old sitelinks I tried to change attribute #2 from URL to URL_LIST but I got an error. Is there any way to edit a FeedAttribute? The only other way we could maintain consistency in our system would be to create an additional attribute. Attribute #2 would have to always be of type URL for the old destination URLs and then there would be a new attribute #3 of type URL_LIST. This could work but I'm worried the URL type might one day sunset since destination URLs are no longer being supported. What is the best way to approach this? Also, I was not able to find a guide for migrating sitelinks with feed services. Any documentation on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Stacie *The feed I'm trying to edit:* 2015-05-22 20:33:24,698 [P2T1] INFO c.g.a.a.a.l.c.A.soapXmlLogger - SOAP Response: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";> <soap:Header> <ResponseHeader xmlns="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/cm/v201502";> <requestId>000516b770aedad90ab64ea1d40034a7</requestId> <serviceName>FeedService</serviceName> <methodName>get</methodName> <operations>0</operations> <responseTime>214</responseTime> </ResponseHeader> </soap:Header> <soap:Body> <getResponse xmlns="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/cm/v201502";> <rval> <totalNumEntries>1</totalNumEntries> <Page.Type>FeedPage</Page.Type> <entries> <id>26292527</id> <name>SiteLinkExtension</name> <attributes> <id>1</id> <name>linkText</name> <type>STRING</type> <isPartOfKey>false</isPartOfKey> </attributes> <attributes> <id>2</id> <name>siteLinkUrl</name> <type>URL</type> <isPartOfKey>false</isPartOfKey> </attributes> <status>ENABLED</status> <origin>USER</origin> </entries> </rval> </getResponse> </soap:Body> </soap:Envelope> *SOAP request/response for trying to update attribute #2:* <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";> <soapenv:Header> <ns1:RequestHeader xmlns:ns1="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/cm/v201502"; soapenv:mustUnderstand="0"> <ns1:clientCustomerId>redacted</ns1:clientCustomerId> <ns1:developerToken>redacted</ns1:developerToken> <ns1:userAgent>redacted</ns1:userAgent> <ns1:validateOnly>false</ns1:validateOnly> <ns1:partialFailure>false</ns1:partialFailure> </ns1:RequestHeader> </soapenv:Header> <soapenv:Body> <mutate xmlns="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/cm/v201502";> <operations> <operator>SET</operator> <operand> <id>26292527</id> <name>SiteLinkExtension</name> <attributes> <id>1</id> <name>linkText</name> <type>STRING</type> <isPartOfKey>false</isPartOfKey> </attributes> <attributes> <id>2</id> <name>siteLinkUrl</name> <type>URL_LIST</type> <isPartOfKey>false</isPartOfKey> </attributes> <status>ENABLED</status> <origin>USER</origin> </operand> </operations> </mutate> </soapenv:Body> </soapenv:Envelope> 2015-05-22 20:34:58,293 [P2T1] WARN c.g.a.a.a.l.c.A.soapXmlLogger - SOAP Response: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";> <soap:Header> <ResponseHeader xmlns="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/cm/v201502";> <requestId>000516b776477cc00abfb9c2160046b0</requestId> <serviceName>FeedService</serviceName> <methodName>mutate</methodName> <operations>0</operations> <responseTime>89</responseTime> </ResponseHeader> </soap:Header> <soap:Body> <soap:Fault> <faultcode>soap:Server</faultcode> <faultstring>[FeedError.ATTRIBUTES_DO_NOT_MATCH_EXISTING_ATTRIBUTES @ operations[0].operand.attributes]</faultstring> <detail> <ApiExceptionFault xmlns="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/cm/v201502";> <message>[FeedError.ATTRIBUTES_DO_NOT_MATCH_EXISTING_ATTRIBUTES @ operations[0].operand.attributes]</message> <ApplicationException.Type>ApiException</ApplicationException.Type> <errors xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:type="FeedError"> <fieldPath>operations[0].operand.attributes</fieldPath> <trigger/> <errorString>FeedError.ATTRIBUTES_DO_NOT_MATCH_EXISTING_ATTRIBUTES</errorString> <ApiError.Type>FeedError</ApiError.Type> <reason>ATTRIBUTES_DO_NOT_MATCH_EXISTING_ATTRIBUTES</reason> </errors> </ApiExceptionFault> </detail> </soap:Fault> </soap:Body> </soap:Envelope> -- -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ 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.
