TargetingIdeaService Criterion in Selector

[Vaibhav Jajoo]

Hi, 

I am trying to use the Criterion as documented in the latest version of API here https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201605/TargetingIdeaService.Criterion. 

I am not able to figure out how to build the selector for it. Has anybody tried that and had sucess with it??

My sample selector is:

selector = {

     'searchParameters': [

         {

             'xsi_type': 'RelatedToQuerySearchParameter',

             'queries': ['mars travel']

         },

         { 'xsi_type': 'NetworkSearchParameter',

            'networkSetting': [{'targetGoogleSearch' : 'true','targetPartnerSearchNetwork' : 'false',   

                                'targetSearchNetwork' : 'false', 'targetContentNetwork' : 'false'}]

         } ,

    ], 

    # 'Attribute': [ {'Criterion': [{'id': '30001', 'xsi_type': 'Platform'}]}] ,

    #'predicates': [ {   'field': 'CriterionId','operator': 'EQUALS','values': [30001]}],  

    # 'Criterion': [{'id': '30001', 'xsi_type': 'Platform'}] ,

    # 'Criterion' : [{ 'criteria': [          {          'xsi_type': 'Location',  'id': '2840'  },  { 'xsi_type': 'Language','id': '1000' }      ]                            }], 

    # 'platformEstimateRequested': True,

     'ideaType': 'KEYWORD',

     'requestType': 'STATS', ## set = 'STATS' to get statistics on this keyword or 'IDEAS' to get ideas on other kw

     'requestedAttributeTypes': ['KEYWORD_TEXT', 'SEARCH_VOLUME', 'AVERAGE_CPC',

                                 'TARGETED_MONTHLY_SEARCHES',

      'CATEGORY_PRODUCTS_AND_SERVICES','COMPETITION',

                              'CRITERION',## only valid for placements

                               'EXTRACTED_FROM_WEBPAGE', 'IDEA_TYPE'],

     'paging': {

         'startIndex': str(offset),

         'numberResults': str(PAGE_SIZE)

     }

 }

Thanks in advance!!

Hi VJ,

Based on your codes, you are setting CRITERION in the AttributeType[] collection. However, the list of available attributeType can be found here with IdeaType = KEYWORD. Additionally, could you please reply privately to author the SOAP request and response?

Thanks and Regards,

Hi Joyce,

I'm looking for information on this as well. I would like to set a Platform criterion to filter monthly search volume by and I was told that this was possible because but I am having trouble defining the selector.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you,

Sergio

Hi Sergio,

Since this is already an old thread, I suggest that you open a new one with your questions and from there, we can continue with our investigation.
