Re: Script - Google Shopping Campaign - Auto CPC Bid

Hi,

It looks like you're missing the intermediate ProductPartition object. You'll want to create one of those with UNIT partition type and set its caseValue to the ProductOfferId. The BiddableAdGroupCriterion.criterion should point to that ProductPartition object instead of directly to the ProductOfferId.

I realize this can be a bit confusing. :) I'd definitely recommend looking at the createUnit function I mentioned earlier, as that handles most of this for you.

I want to set an absolute CPC bid (variable name bid_modifier from earlier, $1.5) on an individual product ID -
I get this error:
suds.WebFault: Server raised fault: 'Unmarshalling Error: cvc-elt.4.3: Type 'ns0:ProductOfferId' is not validly derived from the type definition, 'Criterion', of element 'ns0:criterion'. '

Any ideas on what I have done wrong here

Hi Kevin,

You can set bids at the product/item ID level by creating BiddableAdGroupCriterion objects with:

Hi -- I am not certain how the last step should be executed --I am not getting any errors, however CPC for productID is not being set.

See script below:

ad_group_id = '**************'
criterion_id = '******'

def main(client):
    adgroup_criterion_service = client.GetService('AdGroupCriterionService', version='v201603')

    bid_modifier = '15'

                                      'adGroupId': ad_group_id,
                                      'criterion': {
                                                    'xsi_type': 'ProductPartition',
                                                    'id': criterion_id
                                                    },
                                       'bidModifier':bid_modifier

                            }
                          }]

if __name__ == '__main__':
  adwords_client = adwords.AdWordsClient.LoadFromStorage('******.yaml')
  main(adwords_client)

I would like to be able to set the CPC of product Ids themselves by passing the appropriate product ID in the Criterion_ID --- I have thousands of products that I want to try a strategy on.  I believe the last step in the explanation is what I am missing here.

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi Steve,

Just to clarify - by "script" I'm assuming you mean code that executes methods in the AdWords API, and not AdWords Scripts. All management of product groups in the AdWords API is done via AdGroupCriterionService. The Shopping Guide contains a useful introduction to the concepts involved.

Once you have your product groups set up, you can modify a given product group's CPC bid by sending an AdGroupCriterionService.mutate call containing an AdGroupCriterionOperation where the operator is SET and the operand is a BiddableAdGroupCriterion with:
To monitor the performance of each product group (ProductPartition), you can use the API's Product Partition Report.

Hello,

I would like in my 30 Shopping Campaigns
the offer and the management of the CPC from the Product Groups automate.
For example, the CPC should be low in a low CTR
be in good conversion correspondingly higher.

How would a possible script look like?

Best Regards
