Hi,
https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/codes-formats
here you will find all affinity user interest, and 

92911 : /Technology/Social Media Enthusiasts is valid affinity

$adGroupCriterionService = $this->adWordServices->get($this->session, AdGroupCriterionService::class);
$operations = [];

$userInterest = new CriterionUserInterest(92911);
$userInterest->setUserInterestId($userInterest->getId());
$genderBiddableAdGroupCriterion = new BiddableAdGroupCriterion();
$genderBiddableAdGroupCriterion->setCriterion($userInterest);

$adgroupOperation = new AdGroupCriterionOperation();
$adgroupOperation->setOperator(Operator::SET);
$adgroupOperation->setOperand($genderBiddableAdGroupCriterion);
$operations[] = $adgroupOperation;

$result = false;
if (!empty($operations)) {
$result = $adGroupCriterionService->mutate($operations);
}

return $result; but this shows invalid_id error, please help me out here

The other code was wrong
if i set as userInteresetId says id required, if i set as id says invalid id


$adGroupCriterionService = $this->adWordServices->get($this->session, AdGroupCriterionService::class);
$operations = [];

$userInterest = new CriterionUserInterest();
$userInterest->setUserInterestId(92911);
$genderBiddableAdGroupCriterion = new BiddableAdGroupCriterion();
$genderBiddableAdGroupCriterion->setAdGroupId($adGroup->getId());
$genderBiddableAdGroupCriterion->setCriterion($userInterest);

$adgroupOperation = new AdGroupCriterionOperation();
$adgroupOperation->setOperator(Operator::SET);
$adgroupOperation->setOperand($genderBiddableAdGroupCriterion);
$operations[] = $adgroupOperation;

$result = false;
if (!empty($operations)) {
$result = $adGroupCriterionService->mutate($operations);
}

return $result;

Hi,

Could you try to use the ADD operator instead and only set the userInterestId to 92911. Let me know if it works.

Thanks and regards,

Hi,

I'm glad it works on your end. The guide only mentioned that the id (criterion ID) is required for SET or REMOVED operations. However in your case, since you are only targeting the UserInterest for the first time, the ADD operator should be used and the userInterestId is the required field.
