How do you use the Google Ads API to update an asset that has the TextAsset type?

[Thinh Nguyen]

Hi everyone,

I had created a Performance Max campaign using the Google Ads API client library for PHP.

I want to update a headline, but I can't.

It displays an error when I try to update it.

"Field 'text_asset.text' cannot be modified by the 'UPDATE' operation."

1. Please guide me on how to update it.
2. Why is Immutable. A text asset ?
   
3. I can only remove that Asset and then create an Asset and create an AssetGroupAsset. What will be affected by any problems caused by this way?

Thank you very much!

Hi Support team,

I had attached json files (request, response with request-id) and a screenshot.

Please check again for me.

Thank you and regards.

Hi Nguyen,

Thank you for providing requested information. Upon checking this scenario I can see that this is not possible because according to this document, the TextAsset object is immutable. Let me know if you have further questions.

Best regards,

Hi Nguyen, 

Thank you for getting back to us. 

First of all I want to inform you that I will delete your latest response as it contains generated logs on your end. Allow me to reiterate the description of the latest concern and you can see it below:

"Hi Support team,

Thank you for replying
I have a new question.
I created an asset group with a "PAUSED" status
But it does not work. Asset group status is still ENABLED

Please check again for me.

Thank you and regards."

Moving forward, upon checking the provided logs, it appears that there is an issue with the asset group where the status that you set is not the same as the response. With this, allow me to raise this issue to the rest of my team to investigate.
