Having issue with IpBlockInfo in latest version of GAds API

[Mitiz Technologies]

Hi there,
We are using GAds API v8 in our application and we are facing problem while blocking IP address from the linked account. The accounts are linked successfully however if we are trying to block the IP address for any campaign using API, it throws error. Here is piece of code that we are using:

use Google\Protobuf\BoolValue;
use Google\Protobuf\StringValue;
use Google\Protobuf\Int64Value;
use Google\Protobuf\EnumValue;
use Google\Protobuf\DoubleValue;
use Google\ApiCore\ApiException;

$campaignResourceName = ResourceNames::forCampaign($adwords_user_id, $adwords_campaign_id);

$campaignCriterion = new CampaignCriterion([
'campaign' => new StringValue(['value' => $campaignResourceName]),
'type' => CriterionType::IP_BLOCK,
'ip_block' => new IpBlockInfo(['ip_address' => new StringValue(['value' => $ipAddress2])])
]);

We are seeing the following error:
code: 0
file: "public_html/adwords/google-ads-php/vendor/google/protobuf/src/Google/Protobuf/Internal/GPBUtil.php"
line: 96
message: "Expect string."
name: "Exception"
stack-trace: [,…]
type: "InvalidArgumentException"

Hi,

Thank you for posting your concern.

Upon checking the provided logs, it appears that error has occurred because the PHP client library might not properly set up. With this, I would suggest to check the implementation of your client library by following this guide. If you have further questions / clarification about this, then I would suggest reaching out to the author of the client library via this link as they are more equipped to provide support to this kind of issue.
