Hello there,
I'm trying to set CpcBids to 'Excluded' by mutating the
*AdGroupCriterionService*. According to this document
<https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/bidding#removing_bids>
I'm supposed to set the *Bid *field to 0. However, I'm getting error below:
googleads.errors.GoogleAdsServerFault: [BiddingErrors.INVALID_BID @
operations[0].operand.biddingStrategyConfiguration.bids;
trigger:'CpcBid{bid=0.000000, contentBid=null, cpcBidSource=null}']
Here are the SOAP request and response.

The error is complaining about the bid being 0.000000 where in the request
I'm setting it to integer 0. Could anyone help me look into this?
Thanks!
