type CustomTargetingError (v202508)

  • CustomTargetingError is an error type used across various Ad Manager services that inherits from ApiError and details issues specifically with CustomTargetingKey and CustomTargetingValue objects.

  • Potential CustomTargetingErrors include issues with finding keys or values, exceeding network limits, duplicate names, invalid formats, and using reserved or inactive items.

  • Errors can also stem from invalid targeting expressions, such as incorrect syntax or attempting to OR values from different keys.

  • Problems targeting AudienceSegment objects, including attempting to target inactive, third-party, or unapproved segments, can trigger a CustomTargetingError.
