ActivityService (v202402)

As of February 22, 2024 this service will become read only as part of Spotlight deprecation, learn more.

Provides methods for creating, updating and retrieving Activity objects.

An activity group contains Activity objects. Activities have a many-to-one relationship with activity groups, meaning each activity can belong to only one activity group, but activity groups can have multiple activities. An activity group can be used to manage the activities it contains.

AuthenticationError	An error for an exception that occurred when authenticating. Enumerations AMBIGUOUS_SOAP_REQUEST_HEADER The SOAP message contains a request header with an ambiguous definition of the authentication header fields.

AUTHENTICATION_FAILED Tried to authenticate with provided information, but failed. INVALID_OAUTH_SIGNATURE The OAuth provided is invalid. INVALID_SERVICE The specified service to use was not recognized. MISSING_SOAP_REQUEST_HEADER The SOAP message is missing a request header with an authToken and optional networkCode.

NO_NETWORKS_TO_ACCESS The user is not associated with any network. NETWORK_NOT_FOUND No network for the given networkCode was found. NETWORK_CODE_REQUIRED The user has access to more than one network, but did not provide a networkCode. CONNECTION_ERROR An error happened on the server side during connection to authentication service. GOOGLE_ACCOUNT_ALREADY_ASSOCIATED_WITH_NETWORK The user tried to create a test network using an account that already is associated with a network. UNDER_INVESTIGATION The account is blocked and under investigation by the collections team. Please contact Google for more information. UNKNOWN The value returned if the actual value is not exposed by the requested API version.
CollectionSizeError	Error for the size of the collection being too large Enumerations TOO_LARGE UNKNOWN The value returned if the actual value is not exposed by the requested API version.
CommonError	A place for common errors that can be used across services. Enumerations NOT_FOUND Indicates that an attempt was made to retrieve an entity that does not exist. ALREADY_EXISTS Indicates that an attempt was made to create an entity that already exists. NOT_APPLICABLE Indicates that a value is not applicable for given use case. DUPLICATE_OBJECT Indicates that two elements in the collection were identical. CANNOT_UPDATE Indicates that an attempt was made to change an immutable field. UNSUPPORTED_OPERATION Indicates that the requested operation is not supported. CONCURRENT_MODIFICATION Indicates that another request attempted to update the same data in the same network at about the same time. Please wait and try the request again. UNKNOWN The value returned if the actual value is not exposed by the requested API version.
FeatureError	Errors related to feature management. If you attempt using a feature that is not available to the current network you'll receive a FeatureError with the missing feature as the trigger. Enumerations MISSING_FEATURE A feature is being used that is not enabled on the current network. UNKNOWN The value returned if the actual value is not exposed by the requested API version.
InternalApiError	Indicates that a server-side error has occured. InternalApiErrors are generally not the result of an invalid request or message sent by the client. Enumerations UNEXPECTED_INTERNAL_API_ERROR API encountered an unexpected internal error. TRANSIENT_ERROR A temporary error occurred during the request. Please retry. UNKNOWN The cause of the error is not known or only defined in newer versions. DOWNTIME The API is currently unavailable for a planned downtime. ERROR_GENERATING_RESPONSE Mutate succeeded but server was unable to build response. Client should not retry mutate.

The recommended approach to handle this error is to wait about 5 seconds and then retry the request. Note that this does not guarantee the request will succeed. If it fails again, try increasing the wait time. Another way to mitigate this error is to limit requests to 8 per second for Ad Manager 360 accounts, or 2 per second for Ad Manager accounts. Once again this does not guarantee that every request will succeed, but may help reduce the number of times you receive this error. UNKNOWN The value returned if the actual value is not exposed by the requested API version. REPORT_JOB_LIMIT This user has exceeded the allowed number of new report requests per hour (this includes both reports run via the UI and reports run via ReportService.runReportJob).

If it fails again, try increasing the wait time. Another way to mitigate this error is to limit the number of new report requests to 250 per hour per user. Once again, this does not guarantee that every request will succeed, but may help reduce the number of times you receive this error. SEGMENT_POPULATION_LIMIT This network has exceeded the allowed number of identifiers uploaded within a 24 hour period. The recommended approach to handle this error is to wait 30 minutes and then retry the request. Note that this does not guarantee the request will succeed.
