Got "DUPLICATE_SYSTEM_FEED" error when called FeedService

[Jiaxin Wu]

Hi, 

I got the soap error when I was calling "FeedService" to C\create a new location extension feed linked to the Google My Business account:

'<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><soap:Header><ResponseHeader xmlns="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/cm/v201809"><requestId>000595bf73a3508a0a37f918d00e0253</requestId><serviceName>FeedService</serviceName><methodName>mutate</methodName><operations>0</operations><responseTime>323</responseTime></ResponseHeader></soap:Header><soap:Body><soap:Fault><faultcode>soap:Client</faultcode><faultstring>[FeedError.DUPLICATE_SYSTEM_FEED @ operations[0].operand.systemFeedGenerationData; trigger:\'&lt;ByteString@404d5aec size=220 contents="\\n\\277\\001\\n\\003GET\\022\\\'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/adwor..."&gt;\']</faultstring><detail><ApiExceptionFault xmlns="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/cm/v201809"><message>[FeedError.DUPLICATE_SYSTEM_FEED @ operations[0].operand.systemFeedGenerationData; trigger:\'&lt;ByteString@404d5aec size=220 contents="\\n\\277\\001\\n\\003GET\\022\\\'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/adwor..."&gt;\']</message><ApplicationException.Type>ApiException</ApplicationException.Type><errors xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="FeedError"><fieldPath>operations[0].operand.systemFeedGenerationData</fieldPath><fieldPathElements><field>operations</field><index>0</index></fieldPathElements><fieldPathElements><field>operand</field></fieldPathElements><fieldPathElements><field>systemFeedGenerationData</field></fieldPathElements><trigger>&lt;ByteString@404d5aec size=220 contents="\\n\\277\\001\\n\\003GET\\022\\\'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/adwor..."&gt;</trigger><errorString>FeedError.DUPLICATE_SYSTEM_FEED</errorString><ApiError.Type>FeedError</ApiError.Type><reason>UNKNOWN</reason></errors></ApiExceptionFault></detail></soap:Fault></soap:Body></soap:Envelope>' 

It said "There is already a feed with the given system feed generation data.", is it because I called "FeedItemService" to add other extensions before? How to fix and avoid this issue?

Thanks,

Hello Wu, 

The DUPLICATE_SYSTEM_FEED is usually seen if there is already a feed with the given system feed generation data. Could you please share the complete request and response logs, so I can take a closer look? You can share the details privately via Reply privately to author option.

Hi Enam,

Upon checking Wu's account, it looks like there was already a Google My Business feed available in the account. Your Google Ads account can have only one ENABLED feed linked to a Google My Business account. If you attempt to create another GMB feed using the ADD operation, the request will fail with an error.

Anthony

Hi Anthony,

I'm try to create a Location extension for the customer account present in my MCC.

I use the code explained in this example https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/samples/php/extensions

In some case, depend on customer's email, i receive the response DUPLICATE_SYSTEM_FEED, in other case the response INVALID_AUTH_TOKEN_FOR_EMAIL

Thank you for your assistance.
