AdsApp.​AdOperation

  • An AdOperation represents the creation of a new ad and executes when methods like getErrors(), getResult(), or isSuccessful() are called.

  • To improve script efficiency, store operations in an array and call execution methods after all operations are constructed.

  • The getErrors() method returns an array of errors if the operation failed, or an empty array if successful.

  • The getResult() method returns the newly created Ad if successful, or null if unsuccessful.

  • The isSuccessful() method returns true if the ad creation operation was successful.

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:
