DUPLICATE_ASSET - Assets are duplicated across operations

[Дмитрий Волянюк]

Hi
Once I faced with DUPLICATE_ASSET error in my logs during ad creation process.
After that i tried to reproduce this problem to somehow react on it in future but didn't catch it.
If i create Ad with same images as in  previously created Ad -  i don't see this error.
If i create one Ad and load there two identical images  - i still  don't see this error.

Can someone explain me when this problem appear and how i can reproduce it?
Thanks.

Hello,

Thanks for reaching out. If you still have the logs for this issue, can you please try recreating that same request? If you create to the same asset between operations within a single request, you should be able to recreate the error.

It's good idea but unfortunately that error case was on test server and database there already cleaned and updated so i haven't possibility to grab that data and repeat request.
Same asset means fully identical images ? or images names? 
If i create each asset by separate operation and request i will not faced with such problem ?

Hello,

This error refers to the asset data. There is a separate error, DUPLICATE_ASSET_NAME, for name duplicates. The description for the asset name duplicate error is "asset name is duplicated, either across operations or with an existing asset", whereas the DUPLICATE_ASSET error only mentions between operations (not with an existing asset). Based on this language you should be able to create one between requests.
