Bing Ads API Code Examples
Get started developing Bing Ads API applications in any programming language which supports web services. Samples are provided for C#, Java, Php, and Python.
Note
- Upgrade your expanded text ads to responsive search ads by February 1, 2023. After this date, you will no longer be able to create new or edit existing expanded text ads. For more information, see About responsive search ads.
- Existing expanded text ads will continue to serve, and you'll be able to view reports on their performance.
- You'll still be able to pause, enable, or remove your expanded text ads. Otherwise, attempts to add or update expanded text ads will result in a
CampaignServiceAdTypeInvaliderror. - Learn more about this change.
