User List Size is 0 from API but not in UI

[Stephanie Vance]

I am trying to get the size of all my user lists with the python SDK. When I check the UI, I have lists of varying size from 1,300 up to 300k members. When I use the get operation of the AdWordsUserListService, all my CRM and Similar lists come back with a size of 0 and size range of "LESS_THAN_FIVE_HUNDRED". Should I be getting this data another way? I had seen a couple other similar posts that didn't have answers yet.

Thanks!

Hi Stephanie,

You need to include the values "SizeForSearch" and "SizeRangeForSearch" in the selector to get the estimated number of users in a user list in the google.com domain which are available for targeting in search campaigns. Could you retry the AdwordsUserListService.get() request by including these fields and let me know if you are able to get the size?

Thanks,

Shwetha,

Yes that worked! Thank you!
