Retrieve loner sitelinks using extension setting service

[mm]

Hey guys -

I was looking at moving all of my current feed-based sitelink management code to the CampaignExtensionSettingService. Right now, with Feed services I can retrieve all sitelinks for an account regardless of whether they have been associated with a Campaign or AdGroup. When using these new(ish) Extension services, is there a way to achieve the same end? I tried a retrieval with the CampaignExtensionSettingService where I only specified the extension type in the selector, but none of the sitelinks were returned (I assume because they weren't associated with a campaign).

Thanks for your help!

Hi Magaret,

I don't know how to read all existing sitelinks with the CampaignExtensionSettingService. But I want to know, how I can filter all sitelinks with the FeedItemService. Do you have a code example?

Thanks in advance and - sorry for the offtopic question...

Hey Juergen -
FWIW, after digging around some more, it looks like I might need to use the CustomerExtensionSettingService to read all the sitelinks for an account. Haven't had time to confirm yet. 

Perhaps I misspoke slightly when I said I was reading the sitelinks for a feed. I am looking at the mappings, and if a feed has a valid Sitelink mapping, then I am reading all the feeditems for that feed via FeedItemService.

I am sure there are already some code samples out there for that, but in case it is useful for you, my code reading the feeditems looks like this:

FeedItemServiceInterface feedService = getFeedItemService(acctId);

Selector selector = new Selector();

selector.setFields(new String[] { "FeedId", "FeedItemId", "StartTime", "EndTime", "AttributeValues", "PolicyData", "DevicePreference", "Status", "UrlCustomParameters" });

Predicate pred = new Predicate();

pred.setField("FeedId");

pred.setOperator(PredicateOperator.EQUALS);

pred.setValues(new String[]{<feedid>});

selector.setPredicates(new Predicate[] { pred });

int start = 0;

int pageSize = 5000;

Paging paging = new Paging();

paging.setNumberResults(pageSize);

paging.setStartIndex(start);

selector.setPaging(paging);

FeedItemPage page = feedService.get(selector);

List<com.adlucent.domain.Sitelink> allAdlSitelinks = new ArrayList<>();

if (page.getEntries() == null) {

    return allAdlSitelinks;

}

System.out.println("Found "+page.getTotalNumEntries()+" sitelinks");

while (page.getEntries() != null) {

    allAdlSitelinks.addAll(asAdlucentSitelinks(acctId, mapping, page.getEntries()));

    start = start+pageSize;

    paging.setStartIndex(start);

    page = feedService.get(selector);

}

return allAdlSitelinks;

Hey Margaret,

can you please post the method "asAdlucentSitelinks"? I think the "magic" will be there.

Do you know the sample code https://github.com/googleads/googleads-java-lib/blob/master/examples/adwords_axis/src/main/java/adwords/axis/v201502/migration/MigrateToExtensionSettings.java ? Perhaps this is what you want.

Thanks for your help

Hey Juergen,
asAdlucentSitelinks is semantically the same as the getSiteLinksFromFeed method in that sample code you linked to (that code is actually probably clearer than mine)
