GMB Location Extension and Google Local Campaign

[Hugo Picard]

Hello,

We're trying to add filtering on a Local Campaign to target specific stores.To do so we're creating a campaignFeed to filterer the locations. (GMB is linked to the GA account and the CustomerFeed is created and active).

CampaignFeed campaignFeed = CampaignFeed.newBuilder()

.setFeed(#gmbFeedResourceName#)

.setCampaign(#myGoogleLocalCampaingRessourceName#)

.addPlaceholderTypes(PlaceholderType.LOCATION)

.setMatchingFunction(MatchingFunction.newBuilder().setFunctionString("CONTAINS_ANY(FeedAttribute[#FeedId#,14], 

{\"#StoreLabel#\}")").build()

).build()

When doing the mutation we're getting this error : 

Body: null

Failure message: errors {

  error_code {

    function_error: INVALID_FUNCTION_FOR_PLACEHOLDER

  }

  message: "The matching function is not allowed for the specified placeholder"

  trigger {

    string_value: ""

  }

  location {

    field_path_elements {

      field_name: "operations"

      index: 0

    }

    field_path_elements {

      field_name: "create"

    }

    field_path_elements {

      field_name: "matching_function"

    }

  }

}

Are we doing something wrong ? Can we use campaignFeed with the Location Placeholder on a Local Campaign. Strangely, it seems to work at the adgroup level. 

Thanks,

Hugo
