Cannot fetch valid bidding categories from API

[Marcus Chien]

Hi Google Ads team,

We have been using this endpoint https://googleads.googleapis.com/google.ads.googleads.v11.services.GoogleAdsService/SearchStream to fetch bidding categories data and are now running into issues where the data is not valid/missing. Do you have any insights on whether there have been changes to this endpoint or the data it exchanges? I am happy to provide RequestIDs and any other information that may be helpful in the investigation if needed.

Thanks for your help,

Marcus

Hi Marcus,

Thank you for reaching out to our API support team.

There have been no recent changes on the searchStream method that may have caused the issue you are currently encountering. 

That said, in order for our team to take a closer look, could you share the complete request and response logs, and request-id, generated when you observed results to be missing expected information?

If you haven't yet, logging can be enabled by navigating to the Client libraries > Your client library (ex. Java) > Logging documentation. You may then send the requested information via the Reply privately to author option. If this option is not available, you may send the details directly to our googleadsa...@google.com alias instead.

Best regards,

Peter Laurence Google Ads API Team
