Hello,

I am getting the error OperationAccessDenied.MUTATE_ACTION_NOT_PERMITTED_FOR_CLIENT when trying to execute a mutate operation with the AdGroupAdService on a regular ExpandedTextAd.

The campaign is a regular Search campaign and I couldn't find any different about that campaign or ad.

I'll send the SOAP request and response via private message.

Thank you!
