Hi, Another issue I encountered is that I checked the Limit documentation here <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/limits> where the character limits of the description fields are set at 35/38 characters. I got an error AdError.LINE_TOO_WIDE <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/latest/AdGroupAdService.AdError> because it exceeds the API character limit for that field; however, when I logged into in the AdWords UI dashboard, the ad limit for that field of that ad is 80 characters. Will this ever going to change or are there any workaround? Because being able to copy the ad description and create a new ad off it is rather important to the main functionality of our application. The following SOAP request and response is the error I got for this caught limit error:
