Hi there,

I have a need to automatically increase or decrease my bid via the API accross all ad groups.

In the UI, you can do this by clicking all ad groups > Edit > Change Bids > Increase by amount (see screenshot).


Is this possible through the API?

Can this be done through the adwords API? Which service would I use?

I believe you can do this through the API using Ad Group bid modifiers:
https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/samples/add-ad-group-bid-modifier

Probably just iterate through your ad groups and update bid modifier appropriately for each.

Hi Cory, 

You can use the example that was mentioned above. Let me know if you face any issues.
