Mutate Ads

Mutate responsive search ad

As mentioned previously, only certain ad types are mutable. The following code example illustrates how to modify an existing responsive search ad.

Java

private void runExample(GoogleAdsClient googleAdsClient, long customerId, long adId) {
  // Creates an AdOperation to update an ad.
  AdOperation.Builder adOperation = AdOperation.newBuilder();

  // Creates an Ad in the update field of the operation.
  Ad.Builder adBuilder =
      adOperation
          .getUpdateBuilder()
          .setResourceName(ResourceNames.ad(customerId, adId))
          .addFinalUrls("http://www.example.com/")
          .addFinalMobileUrls("http://www.example.com/mobile");

  // Sets the responsive search ad properties to update on the ad.
  adBuilder
      .getResponsiveSearchAdBuilder()
      .addAllHeadlines(
          ImmutableList.of(
              AdTextAsset.newBuilder()
                  .setText("Cruise to Pluto #" + getShortPrintableDateTime())
                  .setPinnedField(ServedAssetFieldType.HEADLINE_1)
                  .build(),
              AdTextAsset.newBuilder().setText("Tickets on sale now").build(),
              AdTextAsset.newBuilder().setText("Buy your ticket now").build()))
      .addAllDescriptions(
          ImmutableList.of(
              AdTextAsset.newBuilder().setText("Best space cruise ever.").build(),
              AdTextAsset.newBuilder()
                  .setText("The most wonderful space experience you will ever have.")
                  .build()));

  // Sets the update mask (the fields which will be modified) to be all the fields we set above.
  adOperation.setUpdateMask(FieldMasks.allSetFieldsOf(adBuilder.build()));

  // Creates a service client to connect to the API.
  try (AdServiceClient adServiceClient =
      googleAdsClient.getLatestVersion().createAdServiceClient()) {
    // Issues the mutate request.
    MutateAdsResponse response =
        adServiceClient.mutateAds(
            String.valueOf(customerId), ImmutableList.of(adOperation.build()));

    // Displays the result.
    for (MutateAdResult result : response.getResultsList()) {
      System.out.printf("Ad with resource name '%s' was updated.%n", result.getResourceName());
    }
  }
}
      

C#

public void Run(GoogleAdsClient client, long customerId, long adId)
{
    // Get the AdService.
    AdServiceClient adService = client.GetService(Services.V17.AdService);

    Ad ad = new Ad()
    {
        ResourceName = ResourceNames.Ad(customerId, adId),
        ResponsiveSearchAd = new ResponsiveSearchAdInfo()
        {
            // Update some properties of the responsive search ad.
            Headlines =
            {
                new AdTextAsset()
                {
                    Text = "Cruise to Pluto #" + ExampleUtilities.GetShortRandomString(),
                    PinnedField = ServedAssetFieldTypeEnum.Types.ServedAssetFieldType.Headline1
                },
                new AdTextAsset() { Text = "Tickets on sale now" },

                new AdTextAsset() { Text = "The most wonderful space experience you will ever have." },
            }
        },
        FinalUrls = { "http://www.example.com/" },
        FinalMobileUrls = { "http://www.example.com/mobile" }
    };

    AdOperation operation = new AdOperation()
    {
        Update = ad,
        UpdateMask = FieldMasks.AllSetFieldsOf(ad)
    };

    try
    {
        // Issue the update request.
        MutateAdsResponse response = adService.MutateAds(customerId.ToString(),
            new[] { operation });

        // Display the results.
        foreach (MutateAdResult updatedAd in response.Results)
        {
            Console.WriteLine($"Ad with resource ID = '{updatedAd.ResourceName}' was " +
                $"updated.");
