Problem with sitelink extension feed - URLs empty

[Mirek Fidler]

This week, I got reported that sitelinks stopped working in our app - there are no errors reported by API, but URLs in web adwords are empty.

I have tried a couple of things (downgrading API, chaning http->https in link, add line1/line2 texts I do not normally use), nothing helped.

Here is the log of my requests:

Hi Mirek,

Do you have any SOAP responses you can send me whether it be successful or failed? If so, could you please do so with the Reply privately to author option?

Thanks,

Anthony

Hi Mirek,

Hope you had a good weekend! Based on your SOAP logs, it appears you are setting a string for final URLs. This may be causing the issue since you should be setting the stringValues, which is a list of strings, instead of setting the stringValue.

Hi Anthony,

Bingo! Now it works.

Thanks a lot,

Mirek
