Which service is used to set / change AdGroup Bids?

[Jarad C]

I asked a question at StackOverflow (here). I am using Python.

I'm trying to set ad group bids using AdGroupService and mutate.

My suds response object looks like:

(AdGroupPage){
   totalNumEntries = 1
   Page.Type = "AdGroupPage"
   entries[] = 
      (AdGroup){
         id = 38496562285
         campaignId = 759990659
         campaignName = "Some Campaign #1"
         name = "Second group"
         status = "ENABLED"
         biddingStrategyConfiguration = 
            (BiddingStrategyConfiguration){
               biddingStrategyType = "MANUAL_CPC"
               bids[] = 
                  (CpcBid){
                     Bids.Type = "CpcBid"
                     bid = 
                        (Money){
                           ComparableValue.Type = "Money"
                           microAmount = 1230000
                        }
                     cpcBidSource = "ADGROUP"
                  },
            }
      },
 }

My operations object looks like:

operations = [{
    'operator': 'SET',
    'operand': {
        'id': 38496562285,
        'biddingStrategyConfiguration': {
            'bids': [{
                'bid': {
                    'microAmount': 4560000
                    }
                }]
            }
        }
    }]

I then do something like:

service = client.adwords_client.GetService('AdGroupService', version='v201609')
service.mutate(operations)

It returns an error:

suds.TypeNotFound: Type not found: 'bid'

My question is, am I using the right service to update ad group bids?

If yes, how do I modify my above operations object if the goal is changing the ad group level bid?

If no, what service should I be using?

I couldn't find any examples of changing ad group level default bids.

Thanks

Figured it out!

Looks like I was using the right service. I just needed to specify something I don't have a lot of experience with - "xsi_type".

operations = [{
      'operator': 'SET',
      'operand': {
        'id': 38496562285,
        'biddingStrategyConfiguration': {
          'bids': [{

            'xsi_type': 'CpcBid',
            'bid': {'microAmount': 4560000}
            }]
          }
        }
      }]
