Re: Increase bid by X%

[Thorsten Merz]

I think you are looking to change the CPC bid and not the budget for the campaign if I am not mistaken.

Maybe have a look here, it has Python example as well:

Hello, I use Python 3.X and the Google official libraries (adwords & Google Ads)

I would like to increase and reduce bids by X% programmatically. In other words, apply a bid modifier globally and not only for a particular device or CALLS. 

Is this somehow possible?

I'm using the new beta google ads api, but if needed I can also use the google adwords api to achieve this.

I tried hard to find an example online without luck. My thinking is that I should do something like this:

## 1 - Get current campaign.

## 2 - Get current campaign Budget.

## 3 - Edit current Budget.

## 4 - Save current Budget.

Is this right? Any example doc?

Adding 50% bid modifier values will increase the bids on each of the devices by 50%, yes.

That means if your bid is 1 $ then all devices will receive 1,50 $

Does anyone know if adding 3 bid modifiers (Computer, tablet, and mobile) all to the same value, e.g. +50% would work? Would all my bids be increased by 50% automatically?
