Hi,

according to the Partial Failure documentation, AdService is not one of the services that supports this concept. However, while looking at AdService's documentation, the returned SOAP object returned does have the partialFailureErrors field, which seems to indicate that partial failure is indeed supported. Which one is correct?

Thanks for your feedback and best regards,
Dorian

Hi Dorian,

AdService does not support partialfailure. Only the services stated under Partial Failure documentation in your linked doc supports partial failure.

Hi Dhanya,

thanks for your response. I take it then that the partialFailureErrors field of AdReturnValue does not exist, contrary to the documentation.

Best,
Dorian

Hi Dorian,

That is correct. Even if you set partialfailure to true and mutate an Ad using AdService, upon error, partialFailureErrors will not have value.
