Hey,

We upgraded to the latest API version V201402 (C# client library),  and it seems like we can't add specific items via the API:

Video rated G
Video rated PG
Video rated T
Video rated MA
Video not yet rated
Live streaming video
GMob mobile app non-interstitial

All the rest works fine, the only difference I saw was that those items had ContentLabelType value as unknown when the other items had value (and of course those can added).

If I attempt to add it via the UI it works fine, but from the API it failes. 

Any ideas what could have done that?

Thanks,

Ro

Hi Ro,

You are correct - those categories are not available at this time in the API. I'll update this thread if and when they are added to the WSDLs.

Thanks,

Hi Ro,

Those categories were added in v201409. Please see the updated docs page here:

Hi Josh,

In the link you posted above, I see everything except for "GMob mobile app non-interstitial"....

Any word on if we can add this criterion via API? If not, any alternative suggestions to exclude non-int traffic from a campaign (so as to only include interstitial traffic in a campaign?)

I'm only dealing with mobile app install campaigns on display network

Thanks

Hi,

That site category is labeled Experimental, so it's not currently available for exclusion via the API.

Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any other options to exclude non-interstitial traffic besides making the change through the UI.

Thanks,

Hi,

Is there any update to being able to set the non-interstitial exclusion?

Thanks.

Hi,

You can now add the various VIDEO_RATING_xyz content label types -- see the latest ContentLabelType list from v201601. However, non-interstitial is still not on the list. I'll follow up to see why that's the case, but since adding a new type would require a WSDL change, the earliest this will be available is the next release of the AdWords API.

Thanks,

Hello, I am wondering if you have any update on whether/when the "GMob mobile app non-interstitial" exclusion will be available via the API?

Thanks,

Adam

Hello,

We have filed a feature request for this, but that does not guarantee that the feature will be built at all or within any specific timeframe. The best thing you can do is watch our blog at http://googleadsdeveloper.blogspot.com/ where we announce all new API features.

Regards,
Mike, AdWords API Team
