negativeKeywordsList.addNegativeKeywords() Not Working

[Dennis Kreeft]

Hi, I have a script which is designed to fetch an array of keywords, and add them to an account level negatives list. 

The script runs fine, but doesn't actually make any changes to the shared list.

Snippet using a fixed string for keywords:

   if(account.getName() == 'XYZ'){

    var keywords = ["planes", "trains"]
    var list = AdsApp.negativeKeywordLists().withCondition("Name CONTAINS 'list_name'").get();
      while (list.hasNext()){
        var ex_list = list.next();

              ex_list.addNegativeKeywords(keywords);
   }
  }

Is this an issue with my script or the AdsApp.negativeKeywordLists()  ?

Thanks,

Dennis
