Roll Back To Previous State

[prashant...@indexnine.com]

Hi,

  I have one situation in my current project. Where I want to roll back some changes to previous stage.

Lets say I have uploaded campaign 'C1' to Adwords,

After some time I updated it by changing some attributes.

Later on I want to discard these updates and roll back to initial stage or stage before my current stage of 'C1'.

Are there any 'java' apis for this.

Thank You.

Hi Prashant,

Thank you for reaching out to us. AdWords API does not provide support for rollback request. However, in the AdWords user interface you can go to Change history and undo individual changes.

Cheers

Hi Raghavendra,

 Thank You, For your reply. 

  Hope to see in future some api that will simply undone the changes made through Java API For particular session.

 e.g. in sample project provided by Google Team "adwords-axis-examples" inside basic operations "AddCampaign.java" :

 Method "runExample(adWordsServices, session);" adds campaigns to some client id.

 What should expected api should do, it should be able to undone the changes made by this "session" Object.

  Thank you for reply.

Hi Prashant,

We don't currently plan to add rollback functionality to the API. However, if you want to simply confirm that your mutate operations are well-formed and pass basic validation, you can use the validateOnly header. This will validate your operations but will not commit the changes.
