Hi, To use TargetSpendBiddingScheme <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/latest/BiddingStrategyService.TargetSpendBiddingScheme> as a standard bidding strategy, you just need to use the BiddingStrategyConfiguration <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/latest/CampaignService.BiddingStrategyConfiguration> object. The BiddingStrategyService <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/latest/BiddingStrategyService> is used to create a SharedBiddingStrategy <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/latest/BiddingStrategyService.SharedBiddingStrategy> (portfolio strategy), which is the reason you encountered the RequiredError.REQUIRED error because the name was not specified in the request. Could you try using CampaignService <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/latest/CampaignService> and update the BiddingStrategyConfiguration <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/latest/CampaignService.BiddingStrategyConfiguration> to use the TARGET_SPEND strategy? The AddCampaigns.java <https://github.com/googleads/googleads-java-lib/blob/master/examples/adwords_axis/src/main/java/adwords/axis/v201708/basicoperations/AddCampaigns.java#L110> example shows how to set this field.
