API request issue defining keyword max cpc

[Morten Mazanti]

We are able to create campaigns, ad group and ad plus keywords.
We are defining max cpc on ad group level but for some reason the keywords added all get the max cpc from ad group although defined differently on each keyword. The requests states this but it is not added to keyword (see screen shots).

Here we changed the amount on keyword "sale" to 900000

On campaign however it keeps the max cpc amount from ad group (= DKK 5.00)

I changed "Book" manually:

Thanks in advance,
Morten

Hi,

Thank you for reaching out to the Google Ads API support team.

Kindly note that you can make use of AdGroupCriterionService that makes changes for the ad group criteria , where the ad_group_criterion.cpc_bid_micros value will change the Max CPC of the specific keyword. Also, note that the screenshots  provided were cropped, in order to assist further, please provide us with the complete API logs (request and response with request-id and request header) generated at your end and uncropped UI screenshot of the Google Ads account where you are facing the issue.

If you are using a client library and haven't enabled the logging yet, I would request you to enable logging for the specific client library that you are using. You can refer to the guides Java, .Net, PHP, Python, Ruby or Perl to enable logging at your end. For REST interface requests, you can enable logging via the curl command by using the -i flag.

You can send the details via Reply privately to the author option, or direct private reply to this email.

This message is in relation to case "ref:!00D1U01174p.!5004Q02vF23M:ref" (ADR-00263737)

Thanks,
