Error [RequiredError.REQUIRED @ operations[0].operand.rules[0].ruleOperands[0].rule, RequiredError.REQUIRED @ operations[0].operand.rules[0].ruleOperands[1].rule] while creating logical user list using python adwords api

[The DiMaAg]

Hi Team,

I am trying to add a logical user list in one of my client account.

I use the attached python script for the same.

I get the following SOAP request generated at run-time:

  </soap-env:Body>

I get the following error upon processing the request:

[RequiredError.REQUIRED @ operations[0].operand.rules[0].ruleOperands[0].rule, RequiredError.REQUIRED @ operations[0].operand.rules[0].ruleOperands[1].rule]

Can you please help me understand the issue?

Hi,

Thank you for the details you've provided. Based on your code, it appears that you are not setting up the rule properly. Kindly refer to the Python sample code as a reference.

Let me know if you have further clarifications.

Thanks,

Kevin

Hi Kevin,

Apologies for the delay in responding. I was away for work for a significant amount of time and this got skipped.

I checked the example given by you. But it doesn't have a method to create the LogicalUserList which I am trying to create.

Can you please be more specific what I am missing here?

Many Thanks in advance,

[googleadsapi...@google.com]

Hello, 

I'm Kevin's colleague addressing your concern as he is out of office. I understand you're looking to create an ExpressionRuleUserList. The error you're receiving indicates that you're missing to define some required entities in your request. In this case, the missed field is Rule. Please check this guide on how to create Rule-based user lists. You may refer to the code sample in the shared link as a reference. You will need to create a Rule with rule item groups to AND their rules together. Could you please refer to the shared code samples and let me know if you have any other questions?

Regards,

Bharani, AdWords API Team

Dear Bharani,

The given guide has only code in java while I was typically looking for an implementation guidance for python. If you look at the start of the thread the attachment has the code in python that I am using for the same. Secondly, I am creating a LogicalUserList and

not ExpressionRuleUserList. Can I please expect due diligence from the Adwords API Team while answering a question?  

Please allow me to thank you whole-heartedly in anticipation for providing the right guidance,

[googleadsapi...@google.com]

Hello, 

We understand that you're creating a LogicalUserList with a combination of ExpressionUserLists which are combined with UserListLogicalRule fields. The rules in the LogicalUserList are ANDed so a user must match every rule to be considered in the list. When you're adding an ExpressionUserList as a RuleOperand, you will need to add all the required entities. In this case, the missed field is Rule as it is one of the required field. Please find the attached sample SOAP logs as a reference. Let me know if you have any other questions. 

Thanks,

Bharani, AdWords API Team
