GetListItemsBySharedList API is not working

Question

Here's how you can frame your question:

Hello Everyone,

I am facing an issue with the GetListItemsBySharedList API. While calling this API, I am encountering the following error:

"message" => "The server was unable to process the request due to an internal error.  For more information about the error, either turn on IncludeExceptionDetailInFaults (either from ServiceBehaviorAttribute or from the <serviceDebug> configuration behavior) on the server in order to send the exception information back to the client, or turn on tracing as per the Microsoft .NET Framework SDK documentation and inspect the server trace logs."

At the same time, the GetSharedEntityAssociationsBySharedEntityIds and GetSharedEntities APIs are working fine without any issues.

Here is the request payload I am using:

^ Microsoft\BingAds\V13\CampaignManagement\GetListItemsBySharedListRequest^ {#2695
  +SharedList: Microsoft\BingAds\V13\CampaignManagement\SharedList^ {#2530
    +ItemCount: null
    +AssociationCount: null
    +ForwardCompatibilityMap: null
    +Id: 21332-dummy-id
    +Name: null
    +Type: null
  }
  +SharedEntityScope: "Customer"
}

Could you please help me understand what might be causing this issue? Additionally, if there's a way to debug or resolve this error on the client side, I’d appreciate your guidance.

Thank you in advance!

Hi All,

I have found the solution to the above function. Please refer to the code below:

try {
    // Create a PlacementExclusionList instance
    $sharedList = new PlacementExclusionList();
    $sharedList->Id = "Your-Shared-List-ID";

    // Create the request
    $request = new GetListItemsBySharedListRequest();
    $request->SharedList = new SoapVar(
        $sharedList,
        SOAP_ENC_OBJECT,
        'PlacementExclusionList', // Derived type
        'https://bingads.microsoft.com/CampaignManagement/v13' // Namespace
    );
    $request->SharedEntityScope = "Customer";

    // Send the request
    $response = $GLOBALS['CampaignManagementProxy']->GetService()->GetListItemsBySharedList($request);
    dd($response);
} catch (SoapFault $e) {
    dump("SOAP Fault:", [
        'faultcode' => $e->faultcode,
        'faultstring' => $e->faultstring,
    ]);

    // Retrieve and display the last SOAP request for debugging
    if (isset($GLOBALS['CampaignManagementProxy'])) {
        dump("Last SOAP Request:", $GLOBALS['CampaignManagementProxy']->GetService()->__getLastRequest());
    }
} catch (Exception $e) {
    dump("General Exception:", $e->getMessage());
}
