Device Preference and FeedItemTargetService

[Varun Mathur]

Hi ,

I need to understand how to query for Device Preference from FeedItemTargetService in v201806 of Adwords API.

Currently (v201802), we use deviceprefernce and other non targeting fields in selector.Additionally we provide filters via Predicate.Before querying with this selector object in FeedItemService.

Now,per Migration guide (to V201806) :

All targeting fields were removed from FeedItem: devicePreference scheduling campaignTargeting adGroupTargeting keywordTargeting geoTargetingUse the FeedItemTargetService to set targeting for feed items instead.

Can you please help me understand how shall I still be able to query for devicePreference from FeedItemTargetService?

Thanks,

Varun

Hello Varun,

You will need to use the FeedItemTargetService and set the FeedItemCriterionTarget with criterion as Platform for setting the device preference (only Mobile). Please refer to the sample SOAP response below as a reference:

<mutateResponse xmlns="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/cm/v201809"> 
<rval> 
<ListReturnValue.Type>FeedItemTargetReturnValue</ListReturnValue.Type> 
<value xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="FeedItemCriterionTarget"> 
<feedId>87591034</feedId> 
<feedItemId>59621644858</feedItemId> 
<targetType>CRITERION</targetType> 
<status>ACTIVE</status> 
<FeedItemTarget.Type>FeedItemCriterionTarget</FeedItemTarget.Type> 
<criterion xsi:type="Platform"> 
<id>30001</id> 
<type>PLATFORM</type> 
<Criterion.Type>Platform</Criterion.Type> 
<platformName>HighEndMobile</platformName> 
</criterion> 
<isNegative>false</isNegative> 
</value> 
</rval> 
</mutateResponse> 

You may refer to the code sample in Java on how to use this service. Code samples in other languages can be found here. Let me know if you have any other questions.
