[Subhranshu Mohanty]

Hello,

I've multiple users to be added to a userlist. Below is the code for the same, Am I doing it correctly , can anyone lemme know.

def add_users(self, users: list):
offline_user_data_job_resource_name = self.create_offline_user_data_job()
request = self.google_client.get_type("AddOfflineUserDataJobOperationsRequest")
request.resource_name = offline_user_data_job_resource_name
request.operations = self.build_offline_user_data_job_operations(users, "add")
offline_user_data_job_run_response = self.run_offline_user_data_job(offline_user_data_job_resource_name)

def remove_users(self, user: list):
offline_user_data_job_resource_name = self.create_offline_user_data_job()
request = self.google_client.get_type("AddOfflineUserDataJobOperationsRequest")
request.resource_name = offline_user_data_job_resource_name
request.operations = self.build_offline_user_data_job_operations(user, "remove")
offline_user_data_job_run_response = self.run_offline_user_data_job(offline_user_data_job_resource_name)

def create_offline_user_data_job(self):
# Creates a new offline user data job.
user_list_resource_name = f"customers/{self.customer_id}/userLists/{self.audience_id}"
offline_user_data_job = self.google_client.get_type("OfflineUserDataJob")
offline_user_data_job.type_ = (
self.google_client.enums.OfflineUserDataJobTypeEnum.CUSTOMER_MATCH_USER_LIST
)
offline_user_data_job.customer_match_user_list_metadata.user_list = user_list_resource_name
# Issues a request to create an offline user data job.
create_offline_user_data_job_response = self.offline_user_data_job_service_client.create_offline_user_data_job(
customer_id=self.customer_id, job=offline_user_data_job
)
offline_user_data_job_resource_name = (
create_offline_user_data_job_response.resource_name
)
print(
"Created an offline user data job with resource name: "
f"{offline_user_data_job_resource_name}."
)
return offline_user_data_job_resource_name

def build_offline_user_data_job_operations(self, users: list, operation_type: str):
user_data_with_email_address_operation_list = []
try:
for email in users:
user_data_with_email_address_operation = self.google_client.get_type(
"OfflineUserDataJobOperation"
)
if operation_type == "add":
user_data_with_email_address = user_data_with_email_address_operation.create
else:
user_data_with_email_address = user_data_with_email_address_operation.remove

user_identifier_with_hashed_email = self.google_client.get_type("UserIdentifier")
user_identifier_with_hashed_email.hashed_email = email
user_data_with_email_address.user_identifiers.append(
user_identifier_with_hashed_email
)
user_data_with_email_address_operation_list.append(user_data_with_email_address_operation)

return user_data_with_email_address_operation_list

except GoogleAdsException as ex:
config.logger.info(f'Request with ID "{ex.request_id}" failed with status '
f'"{ex.error.code().name}" and includes the following errors:')
message = ''
for error in ex.failure.errors:
print(f'\tError with message "{error.message}".')
message += error.message + ' '
if error.location:
for field_path_element in error.location.field_path_elements:
print(f'\t\tOn field: {field_path_element.field_name}')

error = f'Error occured with status: {ex.error.code().name}, and message: {message}'
config.logger.error(error)

def run_offline_user_data_job(self, resource_name: str):
operation_response = self.offline_user_data_job_service_client.run_offline_user_data_job(resource_name)
return operation_response

Hi Subhranshu,

This support channel's support for client library code issues can only be general. Our add_customer_match_user_list.py can be an inspiration for your use case and can easily be extended to add multiple users in multiple requests if need be. Here's our Customer Match guide. If you experience difficulties or are receiving errors,  you can turn on logging with log level set to 'DEBUG' and send the log to us privately.
