How do i add a single product id to a shopping campaign in JAVA

[Thomas Bisballe]

How do i add a single product id from merchant center into a new Adgroup in a new shopping campaign in JAVA

with a cpc bid of 2 euros 

and make it exclude everything else in "all products"

Hi Thomas,

You can review our shopping campaigns guide on how you can configure your accounts and create shopping campaigns with their corresponding bids and product partitions and set its product dimensions (ProductOfferId).

As for excluding "everything else", I'm afraid that there is no direct way to achieve this. Using the AdGroupCriterionService.mutate() method, you will have to REMOVE it and ADD it again, however this time, you will need to ADD it as a NegativeAdGroupCriterion.

Hi Peter

Im building upon the addShoppingCampaign.java code

changed the code a little too

    if (createDefaultPartition) {

      // Create an ad group criterion for 'All products' using the ProductPartitionTree utility.

      ProductPartitionTree productPartitionTree =

          ProductPartitionTree.createAdGroupTree(adWordsServices, session, adGroup.getId());

      productPartitionTree

      .getRoot().asSubdivision().addChild(ProductDimensions.createOfferId("9420020220386")).asBiddableUnit().setBid(900000L);

           

      List<AdGroupCriterionOperation> mutateOperations = productPartitionTree.getMutateOperations();

      // Make the mutate request.

      AdGroupCriterionServiceInterface adGroupCriterionService =

          adWordsServices.get(session, AdGroupCriterionServiceInterface.class);

      AdGroupCriterionReturnValue adGroupCriterionResult =

          adGroupCriterionService.mutate(

              mutateOperations.toArray(new AdGroupCriterionOperation[0]));

      // Display result.

      for (AdGroupCriterion adGroupCriterion : adGroupCriterionResult.getValue()) {

        System.out.printf(

            "Ad group criterion with ID %d in ad group with ID %d was added.%n",

            adGroupCriterion.getCriterion().getId(), adGroupCriterion.getAdGroupId());

      }

And getting

  Error 1: AdGroupCriterionError{apiErrorType=AdGroupCriterionError, errorString=AdGroupCriterionError.PRODUCT_PARTITION_SUBDIVISION_REQUIRES_OTHERS_CASE, fieldPath=operations, fieldPathElements=[FieldPathElement{field=operations}], reason=PRODUCT_PARTITION_SUBDIVISION_REQUIRES_OTHERS_CASE, trigger=ProductPartition{id=TempCriterionId{id=1}, bidSimulatorStatus=null, partitionType=SUBDIVISION, parentCriterionId=null, productGroup=null, productGroupObsoleteStatus=null, caseValue=null, decisionPath=[], salesCountry=null, merchantId=null, hasPromotedSuggestion=null}}

what is meant by PRODUCT_PARTITION_SUBDIVISION_REQUIRES_OTHERS_CASE and how do i fix it

Hi Thomas,

Could you confirm if you received my response in private? If you haven't, you may refer below for its contents :

"The error you are encountering indicates that the product partitions you subdivide must have an "Others" case. Each of your subdivisions must always be completely partitioned and include an "Others" category.

You can refer to this sample code and then add the Others category. Let me know if this helps."
