Greetings Google Ads API Technical Support Team,
I'm trying to create Discovery Carousel Ads via the REST API.
I have created multiple image assets via the API already. The images I'm
trying to use are all 1200 px * 1200 px.
There are 2 questions from my side:
- does the extension of the image matter at all? It's uploaded with a
base64 string, I'm using both pang and jpg as extensions
- Why does the API call fail? Please check below the request and the
response.
- In short basically it says that the asset's type is not compatible
with the field's type. "The given asset's type and the specified field
type
are incompatible."
Thanks!
Adam
