Filling the existing Ad with new assets using Google Api(python)

[Evgeniy Lepikov]

Hi there,
I faced the problem of adding new assets to an existing ad (Ad Type=AppAd). The problem is that if, for example, I have an ad that has 4 video assests + 3 text assests (description and two headers)
It looks like this

And now I want to upload one more video ad and one text asset (actually it's more, but I'll simplify it to add one video ad in order not to put complicated logic in the code). The upload works, but all four old video assets get the status REMOVED. This looks like this

Code body

Is my query logic wrong, or is there a restriction on adding an Asset to an existing ad through the API?

In addition to the screenshots, could you also share the complete request and response logs, with the request-id, generated when you performed your ads updates with new assets?

You may then send the requested information via the Reply privately to author option. If this option is not available, you may send the details directly to our googleadsa...@google.com alias instead.
