When creating UAC ads, create them separately through the AdWords API and the AdWords UI, and see the results in the AdWords UI for a different display.

Create UAC ads from the AdWords UI and display all the material on the CREATIVE ASSETS page. For UAC ads created through the AdWords API, you will see any donate on the CREATIVE ASSETS page.
why? 
The screenshots are attached as above (UACtest1 is created by the AdWords UI and Here is the series name 6 created by the AdWords API).

Hi Jia,

So I can better investigate the issue, could you provide to me the complete SOAP request and response and your clientCustomerId? You may reply to me using the Reply privately to author option.

Thanks and regards,

Hi Jia,

Could you confirm if you have seen my previous private response? I would recommend that you remove the YoutubeVideoMediaIds in your request since passing them is currently not supported via the AdWords API.

Thanks and regards,
Peter

Hello there. Thank you for your personal reply. But I don't think it is because I set up YoutubeVideoMediaIds.
First of all, I am based on Bharani at https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/adwords-api/I$20am$20calling$20MediaService.upload$20and$20trying$20to$20set$20up$20a$20youtube $20video$2C$20I$20am$20getting$20an$20error%7Csort:date/adwords-api/Z4rJyrWO7U4/_hCsYIgTDAAJ
The method of replying (this is his original: If you already have the Youtube media in your account, you will be able to use the MediaService.get() and retrieve the MediaId of the youtubeMedia). And has returned to success.
Secondly, even if I do not set YoutubeVideoMediaIds according to your requirements, I can't see other material on the CREATIVE ASSETS page (such as photos, texts, etc.) in the aword UI.
Therefore, For UAC ads created through the AdWords API, I will see any donate on the CREATIVE ASSETS page, I don't think I set YoutubeVideoMediaIds because I deleted the YoutubeVideoMediaIds setting, the same phenomenon.
I look forward to your patience to answer.

Can you help analyze this phenomenon as soon as possible?

Hi Jia,

Apologies for the delay. Images uploaded through MediaService doesn't show up in the UI under Creative Assets. That page only lists the items created using AssetService, as far as I know.

Cheers
