We'd like to change the campaign budget through the AdWords API.

We can control the status (Enabled, Paused and Removed) of campaigns, ad groups, and keywords.

But the budget can not be changed. But there is no error message coming back, but just the old budget value.

Do we need your special permissions for this?

Hello Laura,

To change the budget of a campaign, you will need to perform budgetService.mutate() operation and set the budgetId as the existing budgetId of the campaign and set the budgetAmount as required. You could then perform CampaignService.get() to verify that the budget amount is updated. Please give it a try and if you are facing any issues, please share the SOAP logs(request and response) of the operation performed without redacting any information. You could use reply privately to author option while sharing the details.

Regards,
Sai Teja, AdWords API Team.
