Tips on how to debug a script finishing with errors

[Justin Neubrander]

Hi all. I recently started receiving errors on some keywords in my campaign (with the script looking at the history for the past 30 days). I don't know how to trouble shoot it though. It used to finish without errors, so I assume something has changed with the quality score or something over time. The error provides no further explanation. See the screen shot below if it helps. Thanks for any help you can give!

Hi,

 

Thank you for providing the requested information.

 

I was able to check the script on my end and had found that the error is due to the script making changes to a removed resource. Upon checking, it's the campaign that was removed. Kindly make sure that the campaign is not deleted or removed in order for the error to not be encountered. You can make use of a CampaignSelector, and check if the campaign's status is REMOVED using the withCondition() method.

 

Let us know if you have any clarifications.
