Re: Keyword bid update using "new keyword add", not an actual update

2017-04-13 Thread GDZ
Hi Shwetha,

we noticed a little bit different behavior for these keywords that had 
their bids updated via "ADD" operation. Looks like it takes them way longer 
to start performing on new bids than when we use actual SET operation.


Thank you,
GDZ

Hi, 

Yes, if you only want to change the keyword's bid amount, you can use the 
ADD operator as well. If the keyword with the text and matchType is already 
present in the AdGroup, it'll be treated as a SET operation and the keyword 
attributes as specified.

Shwetha, AdWords API Team.

Re: Keyword bid update using "new keyword add", not an actual update

2017-03-24 Thread GDZ
Thank you,

but generally speaking if only attribute to be changed is bid amount, it is 
safe to say this method works just fine. What I meant keyword won't be 
treated as a new keyword, i.e. when there is a delay between actuall 
addition of a keyword and its participation in an auction?

Thanks!

Hi, 

Yes, that is correct. The addition of a keyword with the same combination 
of text and the match type in an ad group will not result in an error, 
instead it would update the existing keyword with the values provided in 
the request. 

Using the SET for update operation would be the right approach as in that 
case you will be ensuring that the right keyword is being updated and you 
would be passing values for only those attributes you want to update. 

Thanks,
Shwetha, AdWords API Team.

Oh wait :)  That actually means you can update kw bid with ADD operation 
much faster than with the SET operation where you have to obtain kw id 
first?

Never mind. Just tested this and yes it did change the bid for existing kw.

Keyword bid update using "new keyword add", not an actual update

2017-02-14 Thread GDZ
Hello!

Suppose I have a kw [red widget] with its own bid say $1.00, different from 
default adgroup bid say $0.50. Now I'm adding bunch of new kws to this 
adgroup and of of them is [red widget] too with bid $2.00

Am I right that after ADD operation my [red widget] bid will now be to 
$2.00?

Thank you!
D.
