    Hi everyone,
     
    I'm working on an application that integrates with Google's AdSense host
    API's services. I'm having some problems getting a complete flow. So far I
    have a user without an AdSense account. I redirect that user to the
    redirect URL I got by calling associationsessions.start<https://developers.google.com/adsense/host/v4.1/associationsessions/start> (as
    described here <https://developers.google.com/adsense/host/signup>). That
    user is then requested to go through the process of signing up to AdSense.
    After that user has finished it gets back to my website, I verify the token
    and get it's publisher's Id.
     
    The user didn't had to wait for approval though, and it instantly got a
    (what seems to be) functional AdSense account. Here are the problems I'm
    having:
     
    1. I'm able to create new ad units for that user through the AdSense
    host API and can get a list of all ad units I created for that user.
    However, when I try to get the code for an ad unit through the getAdCode<https://developers.google.com/adsense/host/v4.1/accounts/adunits/getAdCode> method
    (as described here <https://developers.google.com/adsense/host/adunits>)
    I'm getting a 400 error code (bad request) from Google (I get the code
    without any problems, but I'm getting JavaScript errors when I put the code
    I get into a HTML page).
    I also created a new ad unit with that user (not through the AdSense
    host API) and then tried to put the code I get manually and I still got the
    same 400 error.
    I checked (through the accounts: get<https://developers.google.com/adsense/host/v4.1/accounts/get> method)
    and the user's status is set to APPROVED. Is this something that's related
    to the AdSense host API? or is it something I'm doing wrong?
    I know for a fact it's not anything related to the HTML page I put the
    code in, because if I only change some of the JavaScript configuration
    parameters (such as google_ad_client) to different ones, I would get a
    working ad unit.
    2. I can see that the code I get from AdSense can be customized with
    different colors and fonts with JavaScript parameters (such
    as: google_color_bg, google_ad_type, etc) and I can also change an ad
    unit's style by editing it through the AdSense host API. Which way is
    better if I want to customize a user's ad unit? Is there a way to get a
    customized JavaScript code through the AdSense API?
    Also, I can see that I can't change the size of an ad unit one it's
    created (I'm getting a message that the size property is read only back
    from the API). Does this mean that the only way I can have an ad unit
    presented in different sizes is by editing the JavaScript configuration I
    get by calling getAdCode<https://developers.google.com/adsense/host/v4.1/accounts/adunits/getAdCode>
    ?
    3. This looks like a bug: I can edit an ad unit's corner style to SQUARE
    and VERY_ROUNDED but I can't edit it to ROUNDED (described here<https://developers.google.com/adsense/host/adunits>).
    Trying to update an ad unit's corner style to ROUNDED won't throw any
    exceptions from the API and I'm getting a success message from the API but
    the value is set to null instead of ROUNDED.
     
    Could some of these problems relate to the fact that I'm using a sandbox
    account (only as a host, I tried signing up to ad sense through my host as
    a newly created Google account)?
     
    Thanks in advance, Ronen.

    HELLO:
     
    does anyone knows how to use AdUnit.insert api to insert AFMC adunit?
     
    where can find document or example?
     
    thanks!

    Hi there!
     
    It should be very similar to AFC, but using the properties in
    "mobileContentAdsSettings" instead. You can take a look at
    https://developers.google.com/adsense/host/v4.1/accounts/adunits for the
    list of properties.
     
    Cheers,
    Sérgio

    HI ALL:
     
    when i start a new account associate, i add four productCode the same as
    document
     
    https://developers.google.com/adsense/host/v4.1/associationsessions
     
    but 'AFF' can't work, remove from productCodes fields then it works.
     
    now i use Account.adclients.list, the AFS not show, why?
     
    thanks!

    Hi there,
     
    AFF and AFC account creation are unsupported in v4.1 of the Host API.
     
    AFF is no longer available since the product has been deprecated at the
    AdSense level. As for AFS, we're evaluating the possibility of adding
    support for account creation/association to a future release of the Host
    API.
     
    Cheers,
    Sérgio

    Sorry for the typo, the first line should obviously read "AFF and AFS
    account creation are unsupported in v4.1 of the Host API." :)

    hello:
     
    i want to add customchannel to adunit, and the document says using optional
    parameter "hostcustomchannelid" when call "getAdCode" as follows
    $adSenseHost->accounts_adunits->getAdCode($accountid, $clientid, $adunitid,
    $hostCustomChannelId);
     
    but always get error message "(getAdCode) missing required param:
    'adClientId'"
     
    remove hostCustomChannelId can get success message, why?
     
    and how to add more than one channel?
     
    thanks!

     

    "Sérgio Gomes (AdSense API Team)" <adsenseapiadvisor+sergio@google.com> Jan 02 06:39AM -0800  

    Hi there,
     
    adClientId is one of the required parameters, and is usually in the form
    "ca-pub-xxxxx" for AFC, so make sure you're including that in your request.
    You can retrieve all ad clients with the respective "list" method.
     
    As for specifying multiple custom channels, this is already possible; the
    API call can take this parameter multiple times. In the case of PHP, giving
    the method an array of custom channel IDs should do the trick.
     
    Cheers,
    Sérgio

    Hey everyone,
     
    The problem turned out to be a couple of missing
    properties: backupOption.type and customStyle.colors.text.
     
    The error messages in this situation aren't exactly the clearest, so I'll
    be talking to the team to see if we can improve on them for future releases.
     
    Cheers,
    Sérgio
