400 Error (9015: can only upload HTML5 assets in a .zip file)

[pkav...@jumpstartauto.com]

I am attempting to upload a creative and getting the above message on the insert call to creativeAssets. The creative is HTML5 in a .zip file, and it passed the HTML5 asset validation.

My code is based on the Python sample create_html5_display_creative.py. The prior call to MediaFileUpload succeeded.

def upload_creative_asset(advertiser_id, asset_name, asset_path, asset_type):

    """Uploads a creative asset and returns an assetIdentifier."""

    print('Asset: %s %s' % (asset_path, asset_type))

    creative_asset = {

        'assetIdentifier': {

            'name': asset_name,

            'type': asset_type

        }

    }

    media = MediaFileUpload(asset_path)

    if not media.mimetype():

      media = MediaFileUpload(asset_path, 'application/octet-stream')

    print('Insert call: %s %s %s %s' % (advertiser_id, config.profile_id, media, creative_asset))

    dcm_resp = config.service.creativeAssets().insert(

        advertiserId=advertiser_id,

        profileId=config.profile_id,

        media_body=media,

        body=creative_asset).execute()

    return dcm_resp['assetIdentifier']

Hi,

Are you able to upload this creative via the UI? Please try the same request using the Try-it section. I recommend double checking the asset file by closely following this help center article. Also, test the request using the sample html5.zip file that was given in the linked help center article. 

Thanks,

Hi,

I am outlining the troubleshooting steps for you:

1. Follow this GitHub sample. 
   
2. Double check the asset file using this help center article.
   
3. Try API request with the sample HTML5.zip file that is given in this article
   
4. Use this HTML5 validator to test your file
5. Check if you are able to upload the file in UI

If everything is fine and you are able to upload via the UI but getting an error via the API, please send the following in a private message:

1. API request and response in JSON format
   
2. Timestamp of the request
   
3. Your HTML5 file
