Cannot upload media bundle using API (code from example)

[Michael Vinogradov]

Hi

Need help ! 

I trying upload html5 using API and get error MediaBundleError.INVALID_MEDIA_BUNDLE @ media[0].data.

My code based on this example https://github.com/googleads/googleads-php-lib/blob/master/examples/AdWords/v201708/Misc/UploadMediaBundle.php

Code:

$mediaService = $this->googleApiClient->get($this->session, MediaService::class);

// Create HTML5 media and add it to the list.
$html5Zip = new MediaBundle();
$html5Zip->setData(file_get_contents('https://goo.gl/9Y7qI2'));
$html5Zip->setType(MediaMediaType::MEDIA_BUNDLE);
$mediaBundles = [$html5Zip];
// Upload the media bundle to the server.
$result = $mediaService->upload($mediaBundles);

SOAP file in attachment.

Thank you

Hi Michael, 

It looks like the media bundle that you are trying to upload has some issues. Could you please follow this guide to validate your media bundle? Once you are able to fix the issues with that, the API call should work fine.

Thanks,

Hi Sreelakshmi, 

I have exactly the same error on python. 

In both cases me and Michael are using the example of a Media Bundle provided by Google: 'https://goo.gl/9Y7qI2'
I have also tried creating my own simple HTML5 consisting only of an image in Google Web Designer and got same error.

Thank you,

Solved:

a) hint from Michael to check the creative here https://h5validator.appspot.com/adwords/asset

b) the error I had is due to response = urllib.request.urlopen(url)
url with redirects like https://goo.gl/9Y7qI2 does not catch the final file

Hi Peter,

It is still possible that this will fail, due to this: https://greensock.com/forums/topic/17508-google-will-no-longer-support-html5-ads-with-clickability/. The file pointed to by our guide uses ExitApi.js.
