We will add the following field to the KeywordEstimate object:
Similarly, we will remove the following fields from the KeywordEstimate object:
These changes will take effect on the afternoon of Thursday, November 3rd (Pacific time zone). At that time, we will update the TrafficEstimatorService WSDL which may disrupt the operation of your programs. Therefore, we have posted a temporary copy of the “new” TrafficEstimatorService WSDL at http://www.google.com/apis/adwords/developer/wsdl_preview.xml so you can begin making the necessary adjustments now (This temporary copy will be removed on November 4, 2005, after the normal WSDL location is updated).
We are in the process of updating the AdWords API Developer Guide and plan to have these new fields added on Thursday.
