Correct order of creating Campaign, Budget, BiddingStrategy on GA using API

[Shivam Shendurkar]

I need to create a Campaign using API, but for that I must also have Budget, Bidding Strategy etc in place. There are fields like  'alignedCampaignBudgetId'. When should I populate them? Is there any correct order of creatting these entities? Like first create a Budget then BiddingStrategy or something like that. The end goal is to create end to end campaign in GA with APIs

Hi,

Thank you for reaching out to the Google Ads API support team.

To create a campaign using the Google Ads API, you must first create a budget and a bidding strategy. You can then create the campaign and specify the budget and bidding strategy that you want to use.

The following is the correct order of creating these entities:

1. Create a budget.
2. Create a bidding strategy.
3. Create a campaign and specify the budget and bidding strategy that you want to use.

You can populate the 'alignedCampaignBudgetId' field when you create the campaign. This field is required if you are creating a campaign that is aligned with a budget in another Google Ads account.
