Starting with v201806 all targeting fields were removed from FeedItem . The
Migration
Guide
<https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/migration/v201806>
says we should use the FeedItemTargetService to access the targeting info.
I wrote a test program to see if I could access the existing targeting info
using the FeedItemTargetService. Specifically I want to fetch schedules and
devicePreference. Using the old API, these were returned with the FeedItems
themselves. Testing with the new API, I am not able to fetch any of the
existing targeting for Sitelinks that we know should have it.
Here is a sample of the code I am using to try to fetch all
FeedItemTargets. Even though we should get some items back, the result
comes back empty.
public Map<String, List<FeedItemTarget>> getFeedItemTargets(Account
account) throws Exception
{
FeedItemTargetServiceInterface service =
BaseManager.getFeedItemTargetService(account.getId());
String[] fields = {
"FeedId",
"FeedItemId",
"TargetType",
"Status",
"AdGroupId",
"CampaignId",
"CriteriaType",
"PlatformName",
"StartHour",
"StartMinute",
"EndHour",
"EndMinute",
"DayOfWeek",
"AdGroupName",
"CampaignName",
"TargetingStatus"};
StringBuilder awql = new StringBuilder();
awql.append("SELECT " + Utils.makeList(fields, ","));
awql.append(" WHERE FeedId=" + sitelinkFeed.getFeedId());
int chunkSize = 500;
Map<String, List<FeedItemTarget>> targetMap = new HashMap<>();
int count = 0;
for(;;){
FeedItemTargetPage page = service.query( awql + " LIMIT " +
count + "," + chunkSize);
FeedItemTarget[] targets = page.getEntries();
if( targets == null ) break;
for( FeedItemTarget target: targets ) {
String feedItemId = target.getFeedItemId().toString();
List<FeedItemTarget> lst = targetMap.get(feedItemId);
if (lst == null) {
lst = new ArrayList<>();
targetMap.put(feedItemId, lst);
}
lst.add(target);
++count;
}
}
return targetMap;
}
Are there any examples of how to migrate from the old FeedItemService to
the FeedItemTargetService to *fetch* existing targeting? I know the code
includes examples of how to create or update feed item targets using the
new service, but it's not clear to me how to migrate existing targeting
info.
Thanks!
