Re: Are labels supported for negatives?

Hi Markus,

Upon investigation, we are still not able to add labels in negatives even 
when the criterion is newly created via the API, which seems to be an 
expected behavior. Since you mentioned that labels worked on your end when 
negatives are newly created via the API, could you provide the complete 
SOAP request and response logs generated of your service call via *Reply 
privately to author *so I could investigate on this further?

I cannot provide a comment whether or not this will be supported. However, 
you may keep an eye on our blog 
 for 
updates in the AdWords API.

Dannison

Re: Are labels supported for negatives?

[Markus Heiden]

Hi Danisson,

sorry for bugging you again. 

I noticed that labels on negatives ARE supported when creating a new 
negative via the API, by setting the "labels" field of 
"NegativeAdGroupCriterion". 
So we ended up with a lot labels that we cannot manage (Because we label 
all elements managed by our software on creation since years). 

Are there plans for supporting labels for negatives in the future?
We use the labels to distinguish elements managed by our software 
(labelled) from user created elements (unlabelled). Without labels we 
cannot do that reliably. So it would be a nice feature to have labels for 
all elements incl. negatives. Are there any chances for that?

Regards,
Markus

Hi Markus,

My apologies for the confusion. Adding labels via AdWords API is also not 
possible. The screenshots were just to support my point that labels in 
general are not supported by negatives, since the API only mirrors the 
general functionalities of the UI. 

Let me know if you have further clarifications.

Re: Are labels supported for negatives?

Hi Dannison,

what I am interested in most is, whether there is any way to add labels to 
negatives via the API or not. The UI is not important for me.

Markus

Re: Are labels supported for negatives?

[Markus Heiden]

Hi Dannison,

I am not able to see that the "here" links says that labels are not 
supported for negatives.
I do not see any difference to the documentation of 
BiddableAdGroupCriterion, which supports labels.

Campaigns, ad groups, keywords, ads all support assigning labels to them 
when creating them by simply setting the labels field. 
Why does negatives should behave different?
The linked documentation says that mutateLabel() is just needed, if adding 
labels to *existing* negatives.

I still do not know in which cases the 
AdGroupCriterionError.CANNOT_ADD_LABEL_TO_NEGATIVE_CRITERION is reported.

Regards,
Markus

Hi Markus,

Currently, labels are not supported in the NegativeAdGroupCriterion 

 as 
implied here 
.
 
It is only supported by using the AdGroupCriterionService.mutateLabel() 

.

Let me know if you have further clarifications.
