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

As you can see, I'm setting the *microAmount *to be 0 instead of 0.000000.
So it seems like the error message is complaining about the wrong thing...
Could anyone help me look into this?
Thanks!
Emma
