Re: Trying to find some c# sample code for sending a Dynamic Remarketing csv file up to Google's AdWords system.

Hi All, just to put some results out there... - A few weeks to get the API code to work (including getting all the account stuff working/storted/etc). - A day or so to strip that code out, add CSV format and FTP that up to our FTP server ... then turn on Scheduled Updates. CSV is about 100mb

Re: Trying to find some c# sample code for sending a Dynamic Remarketing csv file up to Google's AdWords system.

Hi Justin, Yes, scheduled automatic updates are smart enough to figure out insert/delete/updates based on the source specified. Regards, Shwetha, AdWords API Team. -- -- =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~ Also find us on our blog and Google+:

Re: Trying to find some c# sample code for sending a Dynamic Remarketing csv file up to Google's AdWords system.

Hi Justin, When using scheduled automatic updates, if your file includes items that are identical to existing ones, AdWords preserves any performance stats for those items and will update items only when necessary. Regards, Shwetha, AdWords API Team. -- --

Re: Trying to find some c# sample code for sending a Dynamic Remarketing csv file up to Google's AdWords system.

Awesome answers folks - thanks heaps. I'm _really_ grateful for all this help :) Another question *blush*. With the Scheduled Automatic Updates, is the system smart enough to handle: - When a new item exists in the file but _not_ in adwords (i.e. an ADD operation) - When an item exists in

Re: Trying to find some c# sample code for sending a Dynamic Remarketing csv file up to Google's AdWords system.

Hi Justin, Please find my response below: Question 1: Is there a max number of FeedItemOperations per mutate call? Answer: If you're using FeedItemService , then there can be a maximum of 5,000 mutate operations

Re: Trying to find some c# sample code for sending a Dynamic Remarketing csv file up to Google's AdWords system.

Hi Sylvain! oh wow - really? after all this, there's *another *way to do this without using the API? Where can you define in AdWords this AUTO-FETCHING? I can easily create a csv or excel file, once a night and put it up, somewhere. But where in the UI/AdWords website can you say: 1. grab

Re: Trying to find some c# sample code for sending a Dynamic Remarketing csv file up to Google's AdWords system.

Hi Justin! As mentioned by many other responders, no, it's not possible through the API... but let me share the solution I have in place, which is way more easier than an API solution in my own opinion. 1. You can define manually within AdWords the fetch of a CSV file, and AdWords will fetch

Hi again Peter :) question about Adding/Deleting FeedItems I have the following code that Add's an FeedItem: var service = (FeedItemService)user.GetService(AdWordsService.v201609.FeedItemService); var itemsUpdateReturnValue = service.mutate(newFeedItemOperations.ToArray()); QUESTION: Is

Re: Trying to find some c# sample code for sending a Dynamic Remarketing csv file up to Google's AdWords system.

Ah! ok .. brb .. yep - got it! for those still following this thread ... here's the c# var selector = new Selector { fields = new[] { "FeedId", "Status", "AttributeValues"}, predicates = new[] { Predicate.Equals("FeedId", feedId), Predicate.Equals("Status",

Re: Trying to find some c# sample code for sending a Dynamic Remarketing csv file up to Google's AdWords system.

Hi Justin, You could include in the selector fields of the FeedItemService.get the FeedItemAttributeValue field and iterate through its results to get the feedAttributeId

Hi again Peter, The FeedItemService.get to return all the FeedItemIds works great. Paging too! Is

Re: Trying to find some c# sample code for sending a Dynamic Remarketing csv file up to Google's AdWords system.

Cheers Peter! i'll see if that works for me tomorrow. I'm guessing : 1. Index == the index in the page. If i want records 1->100, that's index 0 with page size 100. for records 101->200, that's index 100, page size 100. 2. I can loop through this paging, increasing the index number with each

Perfect! That did it :) it's working now :) So .. I'm nearly there. Now, Every night we will be running some code that will upload any new items and of course we need to remove any items that have now expired/need-to-be-removed. Is there a simple way to say: GetAllId's from the feed? So if

Re: Trying to find some c# sample code for sending a Dynamic Remarketing csv file up to Google's AdWords system.

Hello Justin, Oh, that would be hard time for you during these days. You're almost there. Let's get through this together. :) I see in your code, the selector requests *FeedId*, *Status* and *PlaceholderType*, which is not consistent with what's written in our guide: Selector selector = new

Hi Thanet and thank you kindly for your reply. I've been quiet in the last few days because I've been trying to follow yours (and the above) advice in getting this to work. So far -- i've made SOME progress, but still not there yet. (yeah - this is really taking a long time). So this is

Hello Justin, I respond to this thread instead of Mike because he's on vacation. First, let me summarize what you've learned from my colleagues to check if you still have misunderstanding. :) The best way to get started with using feeds would be reading this page

OK great! So this is the current status of things right now about how I've interpreted the answers and what i'm trying to do but am stuck: 1 - Create a Feed in the Web Interface. 2 - Have a C# background application that uses the FeedService 1x a day to add and/or delete FeedItem's to my

Re: Trying to find some c# sample code for sending a Dynamic Remarketing csv file up to Google's AdWords system.

Hello, When I said "ad creation", I was referring to "Dynamic Ads" as described here: https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/3124536 This cannot be done via the API, and is a one-time step that needs to be done on the web interface before you begin. Yes, feeds are very much like custom

Re: Trying to find some c# sample code for sending a Dynamic Remarketing csv file up to Google's AdWords system.

Hello, You can modify what data appears in these ads using the Feed Services, but you don't have to limit to one request at a time. You should be able to create thousands of feed items in a single mutate request by adding more operations. The guide probably only shows one because it wants to

Re: Trying to find some c# sample code for sending a Dynamic Remarketing csv file up to Google's AdWords system.

Hi Peter - thanks again for the prompt reply. So are you saying this: - First, manually create a feed and manually upload some initial data to your adwords account. (Refer to the other AdWords Community Forum about how this can be done). - Now, u can use the AdWords API to push up new

Re: Trying to find some c# sample code for sending a Dynamic Remarketing csv file up to Google's AdWords system.

Re: Trying to find some c# sample code for sending a Dynamic Remarketing csv file up to Google's AdWords system.

Hi Peter, Urgh :( Really - there's no API or support for Dynamic remarketing ads via the API? So - is the _only way_ to upload dynamic remarketing ads ... is to upload a csv file _manually_ via the adwords UI/website? If yes - is this - an oversight - just an issue with

Re: Trying to find some c# sample code for sending a Dynamic Remarketing csv file up to Google's AdWords system.

Hi Justin, The creation of dynamic remarketing ads via the AdWords API is currently not supported and I am not exactly sure if CSV upload is available in the AdWords UI. You may confirm with the AdWords Community Forum

Hi folks, I'm trying to find a way to push up a CSV file to google adwords for some dynamic remarketing we wish to do. We are in the realestate segment so I found some nice documentation about this: - AdWords .NET SDK: https://github.com/googleads/googleads-dotnet-lib - AdWords .NET Samples:
