ads_associate_optimization_rules_to_campaign

Arguments

NameTypeDescription
storerequiredstringthe store ref `<store>-<CC>` (name-country, e.g. 'myStore-US') — one of get_user_context's store_refs, verbatim.

Result

Every tool answers {notification, data, human_action}; data carries:

  • 207, one result per item; an item whose code is not "Ok" (or that is listed under error / failures) failed — read its details.
  • data.failed — [{index, optimizationRuleId, code, details}] for every item Amazon did not confirm. ALWAYS relay this verbatim.

Gotchas

  • A campaign that already carries a rule from ads_create_optimization_rule (the campaign-optimization / rule-based-bidding API) REFUSES association: "Campaign has performance based rule enabled and therefore cannot associate an Intraday bidding rule or performance based rule." The two automation models are mutually exclusive per campaign — pick one and say which.
  • Changes take up to 24 hours to take effect.
