RequiredError.REQUIRED @ operations[0].exemptionRequests[0].key

[Suraj Khakurel]

Hi all,

While adding new ad from ruby. I'm getting required error for exemptionRequests . I read the google API document regarding exemption request but it's hard to understand how and when to use it . Is it possible to have an example?

My Soap Request

<env:Body>
<n2:mutate xmlns:n2="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/cm/v200909">

Hi Suraj,

There is no Ruby example at the moment, but here is a PHP example that
shows how to handle policy violation errors using exemption requests.
