Hi, Overriding bidding strategies is supported only in versions earlier than v201705. As you observed, overriding the strategy in the configuration at ad group and keyword levels is no longer available starting in v201705. The bidding strategy can only be set at the campaign level. You can set the bid <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/bidding#setting_bids> at the AdGroup and keyword level directly using AdGroupService <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201708/AdGroupService.BiddingStrategyConfiguration#bids> or AdGroupCriterionService <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201708/AdGroupCriterionService.BiddingStrategyConfiguration#bids>. The AdGroups and keywords will inherit the biddingStrategyType, biddingStrategyId, and biddingScheme from the parent Campaign. The bid that matches the selected biddingStrategyType will be used. This guide <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/bidding#migrating_the_bidding_strategy_configuration_override_of_ad_groups_and_keywords> provides more details on his change.
