AdsApp.​AdOperation

An operation representing creation of a new ad. Calling any method (getErrors, getResult, or isSuccessful) will cause the operation to execute and create the ad. To make the script more efficient, it's recommended that you store the operations in an array and only call these methods once you've constructed all the operations you want.

For instance, this is how you would assign a label to newly created ads in an efficient manner:

// For the purpose of this example, suppose that the fetchAdText() function
// fetches text ad data from your data source of choice, so that
// adsToCreate is an array where each element is an object describing an ad.
var adgroup = AdsApp.adGroups().get().next();
var adsToCreate = fetchAdText();
var adOps = [];
for (var i = 0; i < adsToCreate.length; i++) {
    adOps.push(
        adGroup.newAd().expandedTextAdBuilder()
            .withHeadlinePart1(adsToCreate[i].headlinePart1)
            .withHeadlinePart2(adsToCreate[i].headlinePart2)
            .withDescription(adsToCreate[i].description)
            .withPath1(adsToCreate[i].path1)
            .withPath2(adsToCreate[i].path2)
            .withFinalUrl(adsToCreate[i].finalUrl)
            .build());
}
for (var i = 0; i < adOps.length; i++) {
  if (adOps[i].isSuccessful()) {
    adOps[i].getResult().applyLabel('myLabel');
  } else {
    Logger.log('Errors from Ad [' + adsToCreate[i].headline + ']: '
        + adOps[i].getErrors());
  }
}
