 Generating Ads with PHP

Sean <neolocutus@gmail.com> Apr 16 03:13PM -0700  

I've been using this page to make sure I'm using everything correctly to
make the adUnit:
https://developers.google.com/adsense/host/v4.1/accounts/adunits/insert
 
accountID: pub-25716040XXXXXXXX
adClientID: 74197XXXXXXXX.apps.googleusercontent.com
 
I filled out the fancy html5 box for defining an adUnit to come up with this
 
{
"kind": "adsensehost#adUnit",
"name": "qq",
"contentAdsSettings": {
"size": "SIZE_160_600",
"type": "TEXT"
},
"code": "hjktrdres421rew",
"id": "jhftderszzresw5r56"
}
 
And it still comes back with this.
 
503 Service Unavailable
 
 
{
"error": {
"errors": [
{
"domain": "global",
"reason": "backendError",
"message": "Backend Error"
}
],
"code": 503,
"message": "Backend Error"
}
}
 
 
I think I'm using all the proper everything to make the adUnits right? Then
once I create them, I can run the getAdCode function to get the actual
Javascript for them correct?

Hi Sean,
 
The problem in that case is that you're not inserting a complete ad unit.
Please check the samples to see how to define it correctly. Your first code
in PHP looks good.
 
Cheers,
Jose

I'm still having problems getting this to work though using the sample PHP
code. I'm plugging in all the numbers and I can't seem to make it work. Is
there anything I'm missing here? I still don't know why it is giving me the
(404) Ad client not found when I try and insert the ad.
 
 
I set up the ad unit as so.
 
$adUnit = new Google_AdUnit();
$adUnit->setName('Test 1');
 
$contentAdsSettings = new Google_AdUnitContentAdsSettings();
$backupOption = new Google_AdUnitContentAdsSettingsBackupOption();
$backupOption->setType('COLOR');
$backupOption->setColor('ffffff');
$contentAdsSettings->setBackupOption($backupOption);
$contentAdsSettings->setSize('SIZE_160_600'); //width then height
//ledarboard
$contentAdsSettings->setType('TEXT');
$adUnit->setContentAdsSettings($contentAdsSettings);
 
$customStyle = new Google_AdStyle();
$colors = new Google_AdStyleColors();
$colors->setBackground('ffffff');
$colors->setBorder('000000');
$colors->setText('000000');
$colors->setTitle('000000');
$colors->setUrl('0000ff');
$customStyle->setColors($colors);
$customStyle->setCorners('SQUARE');
$font = new Google_AdStyleFont(); //added Google_ to tihs to make it
work
$font->setFamily('ACCOUNT_DEFAULT_FAMILY');
$font->setSize('ACCOUNT_DEFAULT_SIZE');
$customStyle->setFont($font);
$adUnit->setCustomStyle($customStyle);
 
//print the ad unit to make sure it's all good.
print_r($adUnit);
echo "<BR><BR>";
 
print out the vars I'm using to make sure it's right
 
echo "clientid: " . $clientID . "<BR>";
echo "pubID: " . $pubID . "<BR>";
echo "thisAdClientID: " . $thisAdClientID . "<BR>";
 
//now do the insert
$result = $adsensehostService->accounts_adunits->insert($pubID,
$clientID, $adUnit); // $clientID $thisAdClientID $clientID $pubID

echo "<BR><BR>r: " . $result . "<BR>xx<BR>";

Hi,

Do an adclient.list<https://developers.google.com/adsense/host/v4.1/adclients/list>to the publisher and get the ad client id from there. You're using a wrong
ad client id, the host's. You should get the publisher's ad client id.
 
Cheers,
Jose

From this page:
https://developers.google.com/adsense/host/v4.1/accounts/adunits/insert
 
Using accountID = pub-257160407xxxxxx and adClientID =
ca-pub-257160407xxxxxx (is that the two IDs I'm supposed to be using?)
 
Using this AdUnit

I get a backendError message.

using the api explorer tool, plugging in the pubID (pub-25716040709XXXXXX),
I get this:
 
So which ID do I use from this? The ca-pub-257 one as the ad client ID?
 
{
