Hi, Glad to hear the animated gif is working for you. Regarding VIDEO, you can only *retrieve* videos from *MediaService*. You cannot upload videos. This is mentioned in the documentation for the upload method <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201710/MediaService#upload>, but we're about to improve the documentation at the service level to help clarify this point. If you want to upload videos, you will have to use the user interface.
