Hi, AdWords API Team!

I'm working 8 years with AdWords API and first have such total disappointment.
You said from 1 July all accounts will be forwarded to upgraded urls. But it wasn't.
So I try to use adGroupAdService->upgradeUrl
to change destination url's like: <sitepath>/?utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=google
(campaign already has tracking template with that utm params)
to final url:<sitepath>/

And get result:
AdError.URL_NOT_EQUIVALENT

Please, advice

Regards.

Hi Dmitriy,

The auto-migration of the upgraded URLs started on July 1st. We're still in the process of migrating on the back-end. Could you please send me the Ad Group ID with the associated URL that you are trying to upgrade? I would like to see if there was an attempt to migrate this already or if you're in the queue to be migrated.

Thanks,
Nadine, AdWords API Team

Hi Nadine,

Thanks for quick reply!

That was not active account, used just for tests (not test account).

I just worried  because of
AdError.URL_NOT_EQUIVALEN
in the case when the final url are same as the destination url, has no few utm params only (which already assigned at the campaign trackin url template).
So I need to add a lot of new banners (with the final url I need) and disable old banners for all of them having the destination url with that utm params,
instead of just using the adGroupAdService->upgradeUrl method to set the upgraded url having the final url without that utm params.

Hope that clear.

Thanks,
Dmitriy.

Hello Dmitriy,

It sounds like you have a pretty good plan. If you would like me to look further into why exactly you got URL_NOT_EQUIVALENT, could you please send me the ad group ID of the ad group that is receiving this error?

Thanks,
Nadine, AdWords API Team

Hello Nadine,

12671186916

All banners I have tested yet has been disapproved, may be that the problem? But the triggered error shows the other reason..

Thanks,
Dmitriy

Hi Dmitriy,

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you. I tried upgrading the URLs in ad group ID 12671186916 in our devel account, and it works just fine (i.e. it upgrades without the URL_NOT_EQUIVALENT error). Could you kindly respond using the "Reply to Author" option and send me a SOAP log showing the error you receive?

Cheers,

Hi Dmitriy,

Could you try not specifying a finalMobileUrl (instead of setting it to an empty value)? 

Cheers,
Anash
