Note:
- This API supports batch operations with a max batch size of 10. For bulk operation, the advertiserId must be the same across all requests in the payload.
- Updating multiple ad groups with different targeting types is supported in Bulk. For example: A single bulk payload can include one ad group update request with keyword targeting and another ad group update request with contextual targeting.
- PUT API requests will overwrite all current values and are not intended to be used as incremental updates like PATCH operations
- You must set all of budgetType, dailyBudget, totalBudget, startDate, endDate, and deliverySpeed parameters at same level i.e. either at campaign level or ad group level
