The v200906 API, which we released as a limited beta in June 2009, will be shut down on February 2, 2010. The recently-launched v200909 API is a full replacement for v200906 and it adds substantial additional functionality. For most developers, the migration from v200906 to v200909 will be just a matter of updating the version in the namespace and re-compiling/building their application.
If you are using one of our client libraries, the changes required for migration will be as easy as
- Java
- Change import com.google.api.adwords.v200906.cm.CampaignServiceInterface; to import com.google.api.adwords.v200909.cm.CampaignServiceInterface;
- Change CampaignServiceInterface campaignService = user.getService(AdWordsService.V200906.CAMPAIGN_SERVICE); to CampaignServiceInterface campaignService = user.getService(AdWordsService.V200909.CAMPAIGN_SERVICE);
- DotNet
- Change using com.google.api.adwords.v200906; to using com.google.api.adwords.v200909;
- Change namespace com.google.api.adwords.samples.v200906 to namespace com.google.api.adwords.samples.v200909
- Change CampaignService service = (CampaignService) user.GetService(AdWordsService.v200906.CampaignService); to CampaignService service = (CampaignService) user.GetService(AdWordsService.v200909.CampaignService);
- Python
- Explicitly set version, campaign_service = client.GetCampaignService(version='v200909')
- Ruby
- Change campaign_srv = adwords.get_service('Campaign', 200906) to campaign_srv = adwords.get_service('Campaign', 200909)
- Perl
- Change version in types, Google::AdWords::v200906::Types::SomeType to Google::AdWords::v200909::Types::SomeType
- PHP
- Defaults to v200909
