Hi,
Thank you for reaching out to the Google Ads API support team.
Please be informed that I have removed your response from the forums as it contains the PII information.
Based on the information provided, I understand that you are trying to add a user interest ad group criteria to an existing ad group and encountering INVALID_USER_INTEREST error. When retrieving UserInterest to set in UserInterestInfo, verify the availabilities[] are compatible with the campaign type. Some UserInterest options are only available for specific campaign types. I would recommend you to refer to the “ UserInterestInfo ” documentation for more information. However, in order to further investigate your issue, kindly provide us with the complete API logs ( request and response logs with request-id and request header ) generated at your end to further assist you better.
If you are using a client library and haven't enabled the logging yet, I would request you to enable logging for the specific client library that you are using. You can refer to the guides Java , .Net , PHP , Python , Ruby or Perl to enable logging at your end. For REST interface requests, you can enable logging via the curl command by using the -i flag.
You can send the details via Reply privately to the author option , or direct private reply to this email.
Thanks,
