retrieving negative keywords from shared sets

[Daphna Wegner]

When trying to retrieve all negative keywords from shared sets I have a predicate for campaign ID's (I want to get the shared sets that belong only to these campaigns)

I have noticed that if there are no shared sets for the campaigns in the list it returns an error instead of returning an empty result. How can this be run on accounts where I do not know in advance if there are shared sets for specific campaigns?

this is the error:

WebFault: Server raised fault: '[SelectorError.MISSING_PREDICATE_VALUES @ selector]'

when running:

    shared_criterion_service = client.GetService('SharedCriterionService',

                                                   version='v201607')

      campaign_shared_set_service = client.GetService('CampaignSharedSetService',

                                                      version='v201607')

      shared_set_ids = []

      criterion_ids = []

      selector = {

          'fields': ['SharedSetId', 'CampaignId', 'SharedSetName', 'SharedSetType',

                     'Status'],

          'predicates': [

              {

                  'field': 'CampaignId',

                  'operator': 'IN',

                  'values': [campaigns]

              },

              {

                  'field': 'SharedSetType',

                  'operator': 'IN',

                  'values': ['NEGATIVE_KEYWORDS']

              }

          ],

          'paging': {

              'startIndex': 0,

              'numberResults': PAGE_SIZE

          }

      }

Hello Daphna,

Could you please send me (reply privately to author) the complete SOAP request and response to better check the service you're calling? Based on the code snippet above, there are 2 services you are calling, first is the SharedCriterionService in which the selectable fields can be found here. That said, it seems what you are selecting is the CampaignSharedSet, not SharedCriterionService.

I would need to check the complete SOAP request and response to further investigate if there are values being passed in the variable "campaigns".
