If you are using the Bing Ads SDKs for .NET, Java, or Python, you can save time using the BulkServiceManager to upload and download the BulkAdGroupHotelDateSelectionTypeCriterion object, instead of calling the service operations directly and writing custom code to parse each field in the bulk file.
var uploadEntities = new List<BulkEntity>();
// Map properties in the Bulk file to the BulkAdGroupHotelDateSelectionTypeCriterion
var bulkAdGroupHotelDateSelectionTypeCriterion = new BulkAdGroupHotelDateSelectionTypeCriterion
{
// 'Ad Group' column header in the Bulk file is read-only
AdGroupName = null,
// 'Campaign' column header in the Bulk file is read-only
CampaignName = null,
// 'Client Id' column header in the Bulk file
ClientId = "ClientIdGoesHere",
// Map properties in the Bulk file to the
// BiddableAdGroupCriterion object of the Campaign Management service.
BiddableAdGroupCriterion = new BiddableAdGroupCriterion
{
// 'Parent Id' column header in the Bulk file
AdGroupId = adGroupIdKey,
Criterion = new DateSelectionTypeCriterion
{
// 'HotelDateSelectionType' column header in the Bulk file
HotelDateSelectionType = HotelDateSelectionType.DefaultSelection
},
CriterionBid = new BidMultiplier
{
// 'Bid Adjustment' column header in the Bulk file
Multiplier = 20,
},
// 'Id' column header in the Bulk file
Id = null,
// 'Status' column header in the Bulk file
Status = AdGroupCriterionStatus.Active,
}
};
uploadEntities.Add(bulkAdGroupHotelDateSelectionTypeCriterion);
var entityUploadParameters = new EntityUploadParameters
{
Entities = uploadEntities,
ResponseMode = ResponseMode.ErrorsAndResults,
ResultFileDirectory = FileDirectory,
ResultFileName = DownloadFileName,
OverwriteResultFile = true,
};
var uploadResultEntities = (await BulkServiceManager.UploadEntitiesAsync(entityUploadParameters)).ToList();
