Problem with bulk operations

[Maxime Menigoz]

Hi,

I need to update the bid of 500 Ads in AdGroups more than 10 000 times in a day. That's why I try to pack all operations in one to avoid the over query limit but I think I don't understand something.

I followed examples to have this code :

myfunction($user, $adGroupIds, $value)

{

  $mutateJobService = $user->GetService('MutateJobService', "v201406");

  $operations = array();

  foreach ($adGroupIds as $adGroupId)

{

$adGroup = new AdGroup();

$adGroup->id = $adGroupId;

$bid = new CpcBid();

$bid->bid =  new Money($value);

$biddingStrategyConfiguration = new BiddingStrategyConfiguration();

$biddingStrategyConfiguration->bids[] = $bid;

$adGroup->biddingStrategyConfiguration = $biddingStrategyConfiguration;

$operation = new AdGroupOperation();

$operation->operand = $adGroup;

$operation->operator = 'SET';

$operations[] = $operation;

}

  $policy = new BulkMutateJobPolicy();

  $policy->prerequisiteJobIds = array();

  $job = $mutateJobService->mutate($operations, $policy);

  $selector = new BulkMutateJobSelector();

  $selector->jobIds[] = $job->id;

  while ($job->status != "COMPLETED")

{

$jobs = $mutateJobService->get($selector);

$job = $jobs[0];

}

  if ($job->status == "COMPLETED")

{

echo "job completed";

}

}

With this code, I still have "[RateExceededError <rateName=BillingPerDay, rateKey=level1_plan, rateScope=DEVELOPER, retryAfterSeconds=86400>]" after 10 000 updates.

Could someone explain me what I do wrong ?

Thanks,

Maxime

Hello Maxime,

It appears that you have basic access. Please read our rate sheet guide carefully. Performing "get" operations in bulk will only use up 1 operation, but performing "mutate" operations in bulk still counts as 1 operation per item that you are mutating. This means that only the first 10,000 mutate operations on a given day will succeed.
