REQUEST_SIZE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED while changing bid modifiers

[Curtis Reubens]

Hi,

I'm using a script to change device bid modifiers on campaigns in an account; it sends requests to the AdWords API in batches of 100. Recently, I ran it on an account it had previously worked for, and received a SizeLimitError.REQUEST_SIZE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED error. The only changes I can find on the account between the two runs of the script are the creation of some location bid adjustments (quite a lot - hitting the 10000 limit on some campaigns). However, I can't see how or why these would affect my attempts to change device bid modifiers. Running the script again with a batch size of 50 resolved the issue, but I'd like to figure out what the root issue is.

Hi Curtis,

One possible reason that you are encountering the said error is that you may have exceeded the maximum allowable number of operations. However, in order to have a better look at the issue, could you provide the generated SOAP request and response when the error occurred? You may reply using the Reply privately to author option.

Thanks and regards,
