Hi,

I want to set new bids for specific placements. I can set bid modifier for placement criteria .

But I want to set new bids not the bid modifier.

Could you suggest me any solution to achieve this using API.

I can achieve it doing manually like this:

Here also, when I apply changes there is no way to see the changed value in columns.

Could you please help me how can I see the changes I made here, and also how can I achieve setting new bids for already exists placements using API?

Thank you,

Hello Sharmila,

Thank you for writing to us. With regards to your concern, you could use AdGroupCriterionService to manage criteria (such as keywords or placements). Please refer to this code sample to update the bids of the placements via API by modifying the keyword id to criterion id of the placement. It is not possible to view the updated bids under the placement tab in the UI. Please let us know if you face any issues.
