ApplyProductPartitionActions Service Operation - Campaign Management

Applies an add, update, or delete action to each of the specified BiddableAdGroupCriterion or NegativeAdGroupCriterion, which each contain a ProductPartition.

Tip

For an overview and more information about Microsoft shopping campaigns, see the Product Ads and Smart Shopping Campaigns technical guides.

Please note the following validation rules.

  • At minimum you must specify at least the root node for the product partition group tree structure. The product partition group's root BiddableAdGroupCriterion must have its condition Operand set to "All" and Attribute to null. If you are bidding on all products in the catalog equally, set the PartitionType to Unit. If you are partitioning the bids based on more specific product conditions, then set the PartitionType to Subdivision, the ParentCriterionId to null, and the Id to a negative value. You will use the negative value as ParentCriterionId for any child nodes.

  • The root node is considered level 0, and a tree can have branches up to 7 levels deep.

  • You may specify up to 5,000 AdGroupCriterionAction objects per call. The entire tree created through multiple calls can have up to 20,000 nodes.

  • Each of the AdGroupCriterionAction objects must have the same AdGroupId, otherwise the call will fail.

  • To update the Condition or Attribute properties, you must delete the existing product partition tree node and add a new product partition tree node which will get a new identifier. Likewise to update from a BiddableAdGroupCriterion to a NegativeAdGroupCriterion or vice versa, you must delete the existing product partition tree node and add a new product partition tree node which will get a new identifier.

  • If any action fails, all remaining actions that might have otherwise succeeded will also fail.

  • All actions in one call must result in a complete tree structure. If you need to apply more than 5,000 actions per ad group, you must make multiple calls. Get the parent ad group criterion identifiers from the first call, and then add more children as needed in subsequent calls.

  • Every path from the root node to the end of a branch must terminate with a leaf node (ProductPartitionType=Unit). Every Unit must have a bid, unless the node is a NegativeAdGroupCriterion.

  • Every subdivision must have at least one leaf node that bids on the remainder of the subdivision's conditions, i.e. use the same operand as its sibling unit(s) and set its Attribute to null.

  • You may only specify a child node after its parent.

  • If you are adding partitions with multiple levels where neither the parent or child yet exist, use a negative int value as a reference to identify the parent. For example set the both the parent's Id, and the child's ParentCriterionId element to the same negative value. The negative IDs are only valid for the duration of the call. Unique system identifiers for each successfully added ad group criterion are returned in the response message.

  • The CriterionBid and DestinationUrl elements of the BiddableAdGroupCriterion are ignored for Subdivision partition nodes. Those elements are only relevant for Unit (leaf) partition nodes.

  • The Status element of the AdGroupCriterion is always ignored for product partition criterion. To add, update, or delete a product partition, set the Action element of the corresponding AdGroupCriterionAction.

  • To pause any product partition you must pause the entire ad group by calling UpdateAdGroups. You can call UpdateCampaigns to pause the entire campaign.

  • The EditorialStatus element of the AdGroupCriterion has no significant meaning for product partition criterion. Editorial validation for the product catalog is completed in the Microsoft Merchant Center store.

  • For a Delete action you only need to specify the Id and AdGroupId in the AdGroupCriterion.

  • If you delete a parent product partition, all of its children and descendants will also be deleted.

  • You may not specify duplicate product conditions in a branch.

Request Elements

The ApplyProductPartitionActionsRequest object defines the body and header elements of the service operation request. The elements must be in the same order as shown in the Request SOAP.

Note

Unless otherwise noted below, all request elements are required.

Request Body Elements

Element Description Data Type
CriterionActions A list of up to 5,000 AdGroupCriterionAction objects that each contain an Action element and either a BiddableAdGroupCriterion or NegativeAdGroupCriterion.

All of the ad group criterion actions must be for the same ad group. For more information including validation rules, please see Create a Microsoft Shopping campaign with the Campaign Management Service.
AdGroupCriterionAction array

Request Header Elements

Element Description Data Type
AuthenticationToken The OAuth access token that represents the credentials of a user who has permissions to Microsoft Advertising accounts.

For more information see Authentication with OAuth.
string
CustomerAccountId The identifier of the ad account that owns or is associated with the entities in the request. This header element must have the same value as the AccountId body element when both are required. This element is required for most service operations, and as a best practice you should always set it.

For more information see Get Your Account and Customer IDs.
string
CustomerId The identifier of the manager account (customer) the user is accessing or operating from. A user can have access to multiple manager accounts. This element is required for most service operations, and as a best practice you should always set it.

For more information see Get Your Account and Customer IDs.
string
DeveloperToken The developer token used to access the Bing Ads API.

For more information see Get a Developer Token.
string
Password This element is reserved for internal use and will be removed from a future version of the API. You must use the AuthenticationToken element to set user credentials. string
UserName This element is reserved for internal use and will be removed from a future version of the API. You must use the AuthenticationToken element to set user credentials. string

Response Elements

The ApplyProductPartitionActionsResponse object defines the body and header elements of the service operation response. The elements are returned in the same order as shown in the Response SOAP.

Response Body Elements

Element Description Data Type
AdGroupCriterionIds A list of identifiers that identify the criterion that had the action applied. The list of identifiers corresponds directly to the list of criterion in the request.

If any criterion action failed, then all remaining criterion actions will fail, and all elements in this list will be null.
long array
PartialErrors An array of BatchError objects that contain details for any request items that were not successful.

The list of errors do not correspond directly to the list of items in the request. The list can be empty if there were no errors, or can include one or more error objects corresponding to each unsuccessful list item in the request.

For criterion which failed due to user error, an actionable error code will be returned.

If any criterion action failed, then all remaining criterion actions will fail, and none of the elements in this list will be null. For criterion that might have otherwise succeeded, a generic error will be returned which explains that a related entity failed.
BatchError array

Response Header Elements

Element Description Data Type
TrackingId The identifier of the log entry that contains the details of the API call. string
