Traffic Estimator Service INVALID_ID error

[Anh Huynh]

Hello,

I'm having problem using Traffic Estimator Service for existing campaigns. This is the request I sent:

And I'm getting the following error:

The message doesn't say which Id was the problem. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Hi Anh,

If the IDs in the request look correct, please make sure that the clientCustomerId you are passing in the SOAP header is for the correct account. It must be set to the AdWords account that contains the campaign/adgroup/keyword in your request. You cannot set it to an MCC account linked to that account, for example.

Thanks,

Josh, AdWords API Team

Hi Josh,

It is as you said. When I look up and use the correct clientCustomerId instead of the default one in the yaml file, it works! Thanks a lot for your help.
