Hi, I'm trying to create ads using the PHP API. The problem I'm having is the following:
I'm using this example code found on GitHub <https://github.com/googleads/googleads-php-lib/blob/master/examples/AdWords/v201809/BasicOperations/GetAdGroups.php> to retrieve my AdGroups. This seems to work fine and returns the 2 AdGroups I have, (I omitted the last 3 chars of the IDs): Ad group with ID -1627709*** and name 'AdGroup 2018-10-08 09:59:11' was found. > Ad group with ID -1780708*** and name 'AdGroup 2018-10-09 08:56:30' was found. > Number of results found: 2 > > However, when I try to create a ad with one of the ID's mentioned above using this example found on GitHub <https://github.com/googleads/googleads-php-lib/blob/master/examples/AdWords/v201809/BasicOperations/AddExpandedTextAds.php>, the code always crashes with this error: *Fatal error*: Uncaught Google\AdsApi\AdWords\v201809\cm\ApiException: > [EntityNotFound.INVALID_ID @ operations[0].operand.adGroupId; > trigger:'TempAdGroupId: 1780708912'] in After some tinkering around, I found that when you open your AdWords dashboard and navigate to your AdGroups the following is found in the URL: &adGroupId=66938767*** When I add that ID to my code instead of the one that is returned by the GetAdGroups method, the ad is generated just fine. I'm at a loss here; am I doing something wrong or is the example wrong? -- -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog: https://googleadsdeveloper.blogspot.com/ =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AdWords API and Google Ads API Forum" group.
