Hello, 

 

I want to ask about adwords script for automation for my keywords bidding because there are so many campaign with many keywords inside it that it would take time to adjust the appropriate bid for every keyword. I didn't use bulk edit and change it to manual CPC and make all keywords have the same bid because every keyword has different average CPC.

 

So in my case, I want to change the keywords bid strategy from auto to manual and set the Ma bid amount for every keyword one by one. So i used this script:

 

 

// to change keyword bid strategy
keyword.bidding().setStrategy('MANUAL_CPC');

// to change keyword cpc bid
keyword.bidding().setCpc(my_preferred_cpc)

 

 

I've tried it on my paused campaign but it didn't change anything. And once I run that code for some keywords on enabled campaign, it will reset the keywords' data (everything becomes 0).

 

My goal is to change the keyword bid from auto to manual cpc and setup the initial keyword bid so it could use my rule based keyword bidding.

 

Is that code the right one to be implemented?

Or maybe there are some better solutions or implementation?

 

 

Thank you,

Hi Georgius,

Would you be able to supply your CID (reply privately to the author) along with the name of the script so that we can take a look?
