How to add global negative placements

[cv]

Hi,

I was trying to add placements as a Global Negative List.

I was doing by this.

$placements = ['https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMwS4p5XhAY9Rhqq7EGGKQA', 'https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVHO-W63u8RrXa6BAHxfLtQ',

            'https://www.youtube.com/user/DisneyCollectorBR', 'https://www.youtube.com/user/Yaronelh'];

        foreach ($placements as $placement_value) {

            $sharedCriterion = new SharedCriterion([

                'placement' => new PlacementInfo([

                    'url' => new StringValue(['value' => $placement_value])

                ]),

                'shared_set' => new StringValue(

                        ['value' => 'customers/XXXX/sharedSets/XXXX'])

            ]);

            $sharedCriterionOperation = new SharedCriterionOperation();

            $sharedCriterionOperation->setCreate($sharedCriterion);

            $sharedCriterionOperations[] = $sharedCriterionOperation;

        }

But this is not allowing me add the Placements.

Thanks,

Hi,

I know that I can add a Youtube channel using Youtube Channel but what about User?

How Do I add https://www.youtube.com/user/DisneyCollectorBR as a negative?

Thanks,

Hello,

Unfortunately, it is not possible to exclude YouTube users via the API. You can use the CustomerNegativeCriterionService to exclude criteria from the customer level.

Hi Anthony,

I am using new Google Ads PHP Lib(beta).

The UI can take any url, that can automatically converted to channel, so thought it might be possible using API.

So, I would only do the following criteria to exclude.

1. ContentLabel
2. MobileAppCategory
3. MobileApplication
4. Placement
5. YouTubeChannel
6. YouTubeVideo
7. 
   

Thanks,

Hello,

I will add a feature request on your behalf to have this added to the API.

Hi Anthony,

I would also like to assign created SharedSet to campaigns.

For that,

I was using like this

$campaignSharedSet = new CampaignSharedSet([

                    'campaign' => new StringValue(

                            ['value' => ResourceNames::forCampaign($this->customerId, $campaignId)]

                    ),

                    'shared_set' => new StringValue(['value' => 'customers/XXXXXXXXXX/sharedSets/XXXXXXXX'])

                ]);

                $campaignSharedSetOperation = new CampaignSharedSetOperation();

                $campaignSharedSetOperation->setCreate($campaignSharedSet);

$campaignSharedSetServiceClient = $googleAdsClient->getCampaignSharedSetServiceClient();

            $response = $campaignSharedSetServiceClient->mutateCampaignSharedSets(

                    $this->customerId,

                    [$campaignSharedSetOperation]

            );

But API is giving error related to protobuf.

An uncaught Exception was encountered

Type:        Exception

Message:     Expect Google\Ads\GoogleAds\V3\Services\CampaignSharedSetOperation.
