MutateAdGroupCriteria

  • The MutateAdGroupCriteria RPC is used to create, update, or remove criteria for ad groups, returning operation statuses.

  • This method can throw a variety of errors related to ad group criteria, authentication, authorization, bidding, and other system-level issues.

  • The MutateAdGroupCriteria operation requires the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/adwords OAuth scope for authorization.

Creates, updates, or removes criteria. Operation statuses are returned.

string

Required. ID of the customer whose criteria are being modified.

Request body

The request body contains data with the following structure:

JSON representation 
{
  "operations": [
    {
      object (AdGroupCriterionOperation)
    }
  ],
  "partialFailure": boolean,
  "validateOnly": boolean,
  "responseContentType": enum (ResponseContentType)
}
Fields
operations[]

object (AdGroupCriterionOperation)

Required. The list of operations to perform on individual criteria.
partialFailure

boolean

If true, successful operations will be carried out and invalid operations will return errors. If false, all operations will be carried out in one transaction if and only if they are all valid. Default is false.
responseContentType

enum (ResponseContentType)

The response content type setting. Determines whether the mutable resource or just the resource name should be returned post mutation.
validateOnly

boolean

If true, the request is validated but not executed. Only errors are returned, not results.

Response body

Response message for an ad group criterion mutate.

If successful, the response body contains data with the following structure:

JSON representation 
{
  "partialFailureError": {
    object (Status)
  },
  "results": [
    {
      object (MutateAdGroupCriterionResult)
    }
  ]
}
Fields
partialFailureError

object (Status)

Errors that pertain to operation failures in the partial failure mode. Returned only when partialFailure = true and all errors occur inside the operations. If any errors occur outside the operations (for example, auth errors), we return an RPC level error.
results[]

object (MutateAdGroupCriterionResult)

All results for the mutate.
Authorization scopes

Requires the following OAuth scope:
