Hello, I had replied to you on the private thread that I am following up with the team for further updates and to check if the current behavior is the expected behavior. Also, that the AdGroupBidModifierService <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201806/AdGroupBidModifierService> can only be used to set the bid adjustments for the supported criterion types. To add the criterion, you will still need to use the AdGroupCriterionService <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201806/AdGroupCriterionService> .
I do have some updates regarding the demographic criterion like Gender, AgeRange, Parental status. These criteria types are special as they have discrete set of possible values and all the possible values will be enabled by default on each campaign and ad group. Which means, all the values are targeted by default. If you want to target only one of the values (such as AgeRange 35-44 for example), the proper approach is to exclude all the other values for the campaign or ad group based on your use case. That said, the API's behavior is inline with what is shared above. Since all the values are enabled anyway, setting one range explicitly is not making the difference. Hope this clarifies your question. Please let me know if you have any further questions.
