Hi adwords team,
I uploaded credit loan-related ad to adwords via python API v201708, but it
respond policyViolation because of pharmacy-related content.
The ad doesn't contain any pharmacy-related content, but its displayUrl
contains "pil" keyword; therefore, it was judged as invalid ad.
Then, I tried to upload manually from adwords dashboard, and it uploaded
successfully.
As the result, it uploaded successfully via dashboard, but not via API
1. why is policy inconsistent in dashboard and API?
2. Is there any way to upload the ad via API?

Additionally, these pharmacies may direct ads only to users in the country

pharmacy websites targeting ads to locations where it is permitted to be
registered with their respective national pharmaceutical societies or

the above countries. Google policy does not allow AdWords ads for
prescription drugs to be displayed in other countries.\n\n*Pharmaceutical
manufacturers cannot advertise pharmaceutical drug branded campaigns or
websites outside of the U.S., New Zealand and Canada. This is also true for
informational campaigns targeting physicians exclusively. Please update
your location targeting settings to target the U.S., New Zealand or Canada

part of displayUrl: /applform/mob_pil_zh?WABFormEntryCommand=cmd_init
Please help me to solve the problem.
Thank you,
