Re: Duplicate Labels

[Eric Maas]

We are also seeing something similar to this.  We are trying to add a label 
that does not exist (either with ACTIVE or REMOVED status via the API or 
when viewing the AdWords UI) and get LabelError.DUPLICATE_NAME via the 
API.  The UI also returns "You're already using this label name" when 
trying to add it there.

We are unable to add the label, and our application relies on the existence 
of the label.

Thanks,
Eric

Re: How to check conversion which are imported from GA

[Eric Maas]

Is there a special way that we need to make the call to see the Google 
Analytics conversion trackers?  From what we're seeing, they are not 
returned.

I also found this, but it is over a year old:

Hi Anash,

 does not contain the fields ConversionTypeName and 
 ConversionCategoryName, which allow segmenting by individual conversion 
 types.  This is critical information for us, because many [most?] of our

 these fields to the report, in matching with the other performance

 We are also having trouble with this.  More specifically, using v201406,
 if we attempt to add a new AdGroup with the same name as a currently

 are unable to update the name of the removed AdGroup to something different

 re-delete), as we get the OPERATION_NOT_PERMITTED_FOR_REMOVED_ENTITY.

 It seems that if you no longer allow operations on removed AdGroups, then
 there should no longer be a DUPLICATE_ADGROUP_NAME error when attempting to
 add a new AdGroup with it's name?

 This will also affect API, but this change is versioned. If you use

 If you use spreadsheets or other scripting languages for your

 Is this impacting only the reports , or the status returned by the api

Re: Change from deleted to removed

[Eric Maas]

Hi,

We are also having trouble with this.  More specifically, using v201406, if 
we attempt to add a new AdGroup with the same name as a currently removed 
AdGroup, we still get a DUPLICATE_ADGROUP_NAME error.  However, we are 
unable to update the name of the removed AdGroup to something different (or 
change it's status to Paused/Active and then change the name and 
re-delete), as we get the OPERATION_NOT_PERMITTED_FOR_REMOVED_ENTITY.

It seems that if you no longer allow operations on removed AdGroups, then 
there should no longer be a DUPLICATE_ADGROUP_NAME error when attempting to 
add a new AdGroup with it's name?

Thanks,
Eric

 Hi,
 When an adgroup entity status is set to Removed with v201406, we can not 
 switch status to Enabled or Paused 
 (OPERATION_NOT_PERMITTED_FOR_REMOVED_ENTITY).

 But with the UI it's possible, and if we use 201402, the entity removed, 
 can be restored with the wanted status (Paused,..)

 How can we have the same behavior between UI and the API  v201406 ?

 Thanks,
 Regards

 Hi Rodrigo,

 This will also affect API, but this change is versioned. If you use 
 v201402 or earlier, you will get old values (e.g. Deleted), whereas you get 
 the new values (e.g. Removed) when using v201406 or later. So you'd need to 
 fix your code when migrating to v201406.

 Hi i just got the msg :
 The Status column values in reports will soon be changed to show 
 Removed instead of Deleted. This change makes it clear that certain 
 items, like campaigns, remain available for future reference.

 If you use spreadsheets or other scripting languages for your downloaded 
 reports, you might need to update them.

 Is this impacting only the reports , or the status returned by the api 
 will change as well ?

 Thanks , 
 Regards
