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

[Justin]

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 and it looks like it's working great!

Thanks everyone for all the constant help - I really really appreciated it.

Keep smiling!

Hi Justin, 

Yes, scheduled automatic updates are smart enough to figure out 
insert/delete/updates based on the source specified.

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.

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

[Justin]

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 AdWords feed but _not_ in the latest file (i.e. an 
DELETE operation)
- When an item exists in the file _and_ it already exists in the adwords 
feed but some of the data has changed (except the KEY obviously) (i.e. an 
UPDATE operation)
- When an item exists in the file _and_ it arready exists in the adwords 
feed but nothing has changed (i.e. a no-op or an UPDATE op but nothing has 
changed).

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

['Shwetha Vastrad (AdWords API Team)' via AdWords API Forum]

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 per request. You 
could use BatchJobService 

 instead, 
since it supports FeedItemOperation. Using Batch Jobs you can submit a 
large number of mutate operations in batches. This guide 
 provides 
more details on using BatchJobService.

Question 2: Is it possible to add a custom field to the Feed?
Answer: Yes, you can use FeedService 
 
SET 
operation to update the attributes 

 of 
your Feed and provide the name and the type of the attribute to add a 
custom field. Please note that you cannot filter FeedItems based on 
attribute values using FeedItemService 

.

Question 3: Is it possible to schedule automatic uploads for your Feeds 
using API? 
Answer: I'm afraid scheduling Feed uploads is not possible using the API. 
This can be done in the UI as suggested by Sylvain. This option is 
available in the *Shared library* section in the UI. This guide 
 provides more 
details on scheduling automatic updates.

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.

[Justin]

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 file abcd.csv from this URL
2. username/password (if this data is protected ... say via https or ftp 
server).

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

[Sylvain Beauregard]

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 it up to twice a day.  That file can be anywhere.  In 
our case, the files sit in a password-protected directory of our Web site, 
because that's the easiest to update for us.  You have to define that 
refresh task once, that's it.

2. Then once or twice a day, depending of the account, we have a script 
running on our database to generate the CSV file and store it on our own 
server.

3. Next time Adwords comes to pick up the file, it automatically detects 
the additions and removals... and leaves the rest intact.  That is so 
better than having to filter it yourself through an API solution.

You can place your file on many locations, a Google Drive for example, or 
it can be on a HTTP/HTTPS or even FTP location.  All you have to do is to 
give the login information when you configure the feed manually (once!) in 
AdWords.

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

[Justin]

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 there a max number of FeedItemOperations -per mutate- call?
Eg. each array should be a max of 10,000 FeedItemOperations? Or it doesn't 
matter how large that array is?

{
Predicate.Equals("FeedId", feedId),
Predicate.Equals("Status", FeedMappingStatus.ENABLED.ToString())

[Justin]

Hi again Peter,

The  FeedItemService.get 

 to 
return all the FeedItemIds 

 works 
great. Paging too!

Is there a way I can *also *return a specific piece of data, per row/feed 
item? Basically, can i return the attribute "foo" which is key/text . This 
way, I can use *that *value to correlate against my db keys to find 
intersections, etc.

e.g.
Type: Dynamic display ad feed (Real estate) 
Attributes: Listing ID (key, text), Listing name (text), Final URL (URL list
)

/\___ return the Listing ID values at the same time.

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 
loop until I don't get any more results (or I max the loop, just to be 
safe).
   eg indexes => 0, 10,000, 20,000, 30,000, 40,000 ... etc.

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

['Peter Oliquino' via AdWords API Forum]

Hi Justin,

You could use the FeedItemService.get 

 to 
return all the FeedItemIds 

 and 
corresponding FeedIds 

 you 
require. Considering the large number of rows that you mentioned, you may 
need to implement Paging 

 to 
approximately 10,000 rows per call to avoid any range limit errors. Let me 
know if this works for you.

Thanks and regards,
Peter

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

[Justin]

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 we have 100,000 rows in the feed, then we get a list of 100,000 ID's 
... and I can now determine what's new and what's to be removed and 
create/delete that small 'difference' set.

['Thanet Knack Praneenararat (AdWords API Team)' via AdWords API Forum]

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 SelectorBuilder()
.fields("AttributeFieldMappings")
.equals("FeedId", feedId.toString())
.equals("Status", FeedMappingStatus.ENABLED.getValue())
.equals("PlaceholderType", placeholderType.toString())
.build();


As you can see, the selector in our guide requests for *AttributeFieldMappings 
*as well.
The AdWords API selector mostly returns the fields that are requested 
explicitly only, so if you don't include this in your selector, of course, 
you will find that *AttributeFieldMappings* are null. :-)
Please try adding this field to the selector. I believe this will work.

Hope this helps.

Best,
Thanet, AdWords API Team

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 what i've done and how far I've got and something is still not 
working for me :(

- Created a _TEST_ adwords campaign manager account and then a campaign.
- Create a Feed (Shared Library -> Business Data -> new Data Feed -> upload 
some fake data)





- Next I'm trying to do the first part of the GUIDE 
 
: Placeholder to Attribute Mapping.




Doing this, I can auth, I get back a FeedMappingService but the 
attributeMappingFields 
are NULL.

I've double checked my FeedId and my ClientId and they seem to be ok ... 
when i had the *manager-accountId* as my clientId, I got NO .entries 
before... so I _*feel like*_ these Id's are correct.

Is there any reason why the attributeMappingFields would be NULL? 

-J- (still attempting to get this working :/ )

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

['Thanet Knack Praneenararat (AdWords API Team)' via AdWords API Forum]

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 
. It's 
the introduction to feed services, where what you're trying to do (adding 
dynamic remarketing feeds) is relying on.
I think almost all the techniques and caveats in that page apply to the 
dynamic remarketing feeds as well.
Feed is more like database as Mike already explained and ads are more like 
a template.
Without ads, you will have only data in the database so no ads will be 
shown to your users. This is why Mike also mentioned that you have to 
create ads first.

Unfortunately, unlike expanded text ads 
 or 
image ads, this type of ads (dynamic remarketing) are not supported in 
AdWords API yet, so you need to create this *via UI*.
On the other hand, however, feeds are supported in the API for a long time. 
Thus you can create them *via API *(or of course, via UI as well).

So, regarding your summary:

> 1 - Create a Feed in the Web Interface.

Yes, you can do that, and you can do that via API as well. The Introduction 
to Feed Services 
 guide 
shows how you can do it. 
Although in the example, sitelinks are created. You could apply this to 
create the real estate 
without
 
difficulty (only placeholder type ID and placeholder fields are different).
 

> 2 - Have a C# background application that uses the FeedService 1x a day 
> to add and/or delete FeedItem's to my Feed.

I'm not sure I understand your sentence correctly, but yes, you can create 
such an application and modify / add / delete FeedItems in whatever ways 
you want.
Please beware of rate limits 
 as well.

3 - Use the guide 
>  
> which 
> PeterO suggested, to help do this.

This is correct.  Please note that this is somewhat similar to this section 
of Introduction to Feed Services 

.
This is because the guide that Peter has shared with you is just an example 
of how to add / delete / update the feed items.

For the C# client library questions, I don't think translating from Java to 
C# by yourself is an easy way to do.
Instead, how about reading other similar examples like AddSitelinksUsingFeed 

 
first (this is also bundled with DotNet client library as well)?

You should be able to get an idea of how fundamental objects in DotNet 
library are created and used together.
Each library has its own way to do, so you probably can't map all objects 
available in one library to another very easily.

To answer your questions more specifically,

> a) AdWordsSession
> b) AdWordsServices
> c) SelectorBuilder

I don't think DotNet has a) and b), instead DotNet library uses AdWordsUser. 
Please the AddSitelinksUsingFeed 

 example 
for more information.
SelectorBuilder is also not available in the lib. You can see how to use a 
selector in DotNet in GetCampaigns 

 
example.

Finally, we're trying to cover all languages in each guide as much as 
possible.
Sorry for this inconvenience.

Cheers,
Thanet, AdWords API Team

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

[Justin]

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 Feed.
3 - Use the guide 
 
which PeterO suggested, to help do this.

~*Assuming*~ those 3 points are correct ...

Lets look at point #2.

I'm actually really struggling to port the Java example to C# code :( Now, 
i've ported Java before, so this is not a syntax issue (which would mean I 
need to solve this by myself) but* an issue with matching up the JAVA API 
to the .NET API*.

So the guide says this:

1 - "*you'll need to retrieve the FeedMapping for your Feed and the Real 
Estate vertical's placeholder type. The FeedMapping will tell you the 
FeedAttribute in your Feed that corresponds to each placeholder field.*"
2 - Construct operations to add the new listings (which are 5 steps in 
themselves)

So first i'll talk about the API problems I can't seem to find :(

> install-package Google.AdWords  (using version 18.33.0)
Framework: .NET 4.61 

First, post the java code to .NET for the guide's example method 
getPlaceholderToAttributeMap

I can't find these in the SDK provided...

a) AdWordsSession
b) AdWordsServices
c) SelectorBuilder

The rest of the custom AdWords classes in the second part of the guide I 
can find (eg. FeedItemOperation, FeedItemAttributeValue etc.)

*** It's really like that GUIDE needs to have an updated .NET C# version .. 
if _anything_ at least a SAMPLE of this found in the .NET samples please ?*

So can anyone please help me by saying where those classes exist in the 
.NET C# version. Or what they are renamed as OR if there are any C# samples 
doing this, please?

-J- :) :)

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

['Michael Cloonan (AdWords API Team)' via AdWords API Forum]

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 databases of information that are 
stored in AdWords. You can think of a Feed as a table, a FeedAttribute as a 
column, a FeedItem as a row, and a FeedItemAttributeValue as a cell within 
a row.

Essentially, get your dynamic remarketing ads into a very basic but 
functional state using the web interface (one-time setup), and then you can 
use the API to add/remove feed items from the feed you're using to power 
them to change what ads are able to show.

Regards,
Mike, AdWords API Team

Hi Mike - thanks for the reply :) really appreciate it (and to the others 
who have also helped out :)

Ok - kewl :) i'll have to figure out how to do that and off I go :)

Ok :)

hmm.. ad creation?

hmm Ok :( I'm confused :(

So a feed is like a database table right? Where 1 feed will hold many feed 
items (aka rows).

so if i wish to do some dynamic remarketing for property listings (as the 
example in the guide is doing), I would (somehow) create a PropertyListing 
feed manually in the Web/UI and then somehow use the API to add/remove 
Property Listings that are for sale on the market?
If yes .. then where do 'ads' come into this? I thought each feed item (aka 
each property listing) is an ad?

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

['Michael Cloonan (AdWords API Team)' via AdWords API Forum]

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 show a 
basic case that can be expanded.

Maintain means that the initial setup has to be done on the web interface, 
and any ad creation has to be done on the web interface, but you can add 
and remove feed items to populate ad data with the API, and this can be 
done in bulk.

Mike, AdWords API Team

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

[Justin]

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 products, *one at a time* ?

Taken from the guide (which you've linked above) with emphasis, mine.

"Using the AdWords API, you can *maintain *the Feeds, FeedMappings and 
FeedItems that drive your Dynamic Remarketing ads on the Display Network."

What does _maintain_ mean? 
- You can only upload 1x product or remove 1x product, per API call?
- The feed, etc has to be manually created via the UI?

That guide is using Java for their example and using RealEstate listings as 
the example-product. So - using that guide as an example .. imagine I have 
a list of 10 thousand or 50 thousand real estate listings I wish to upload 
to AdWords for dynamic remarketing. Can this be done, based on that guide?

I'm sorry if I sound or confused - I've been spending a fair amount of time 
on this and i'm so stumped. I'm not trying to be rude, though so please 
don't take my questions as sounding rude or ungrateful.

-J-

Hi Justin,

The scope of support that the AdWords API provide is only for managing 
dynamic remarketing ads as discussed in the guide 
. 
Unfortunately, its creation is not yet supported. There has been no word 
regarding this feature about if and when it could be available, and we 
cannot comment as well unless announcements have been posted. In the 
meantime, you may follow our blog 
 for any 
future updates or announcements regarding this feature.

As for creation of dynamic remarketing ads via the AdWords UI, you may 
contact the AdWords Community Forum 
 
for 
further information. Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Peter
AdWords API Team

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 not-enough-developers+time, etc (which we all have :/ )
- something that will _not_ be coming to adwords API 

cheers and sad-panda-face :(

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 
 
if 
it is possible to use bulk uploads for dynamic remarketing via the AdWords 
UI.

Going back to the AdWords API, you may be able to manage dynamic 
remarketing ads as mentioned in this guide 
, 
as long as you have created these ads first via the AdWords UI.

Best regards,
Peter
AdWords API Team
