Hi,

I think we've found a bug in AdWords API v20806 behaviour. In this version, fields like: Headline3 & Description2 are not supported. However, while editing an Expanded Text Ad via API (it is possible to EDIT ads in this version whitout recreating them - adID remains the same), AdWords drops these two fields! As they are not supported by this version of API they *should not* be changed/touched/affected in any way. 

I'm aware they are supported in v201809, however it should not be like this in v201806. It simply breaks ads...
@API team - could you please fix this?

Best regards,
Robert.

Hello Robert, 

This is a known limitation for the previous versions of the API as these fields are recently available in the UI as well. We recommend using the latest version v201809 of the API for these changes to be implemented.

Thanks,
Bharani, AdWords API Team
