Hello Amol,

Thanks for sharing the logs. However, it seems that the provided logs have been cut and are not the complete API logs as I can only see the request logs on my end.

That said, can you share to us again the complete API logs (request and response with request-id) in a text file instead?

Please send the requested details via the Reply privately to author option. If this option is not available, you may send the details directly to our googleadsa...@google.com alias instead.

Thanks Yasar for your reply.

Can you pls let me know how I can find out whether an image asset already exists whenever a user tries to upload a new image. We are using php v8.

Thanks,

Amol
