Page Summary
-
PriceBuilder is used to create Price objects.
-
Creating a Price involves using the newPriceBuilder method and setting required fields like price type and language.
-
You must add between 3 and 8 price items using the addPriceItem method before building the Price object.
-
The build method returns a PriceOperation object to get the result or handle errors.
-
Optional methods allow setting details such as end date, mobile preference, price qualifier, schedules, start date, and tracking template, although some are deprecated.
Example usage:
// Create a price builder . var priceBuilder = AdsApp . extensions () . newPriceBuilder (); // Create a price operation . var priceOperation = priceBuilder . withPriceType ( "BRANDS" ) // required . withPriceQualifier ( "AVERAGE" ) // optional . withLanguage ( "en" ) // required . addPriceItem ( priceItem ) // between 3 - 8 price items required . build (); // Optional : examine the outcome . The call to isSuccessful () // will block until the operation completes . if ( priceOperation . isSuccessful ()) { // Get the result . var price = priceOperation . getResult (); } else { // Handle the errors . var errors = priceOperation . getErrors (); }
