Upgrading problem

[BenRKarl]

@miguelem there are basically 4 ways to set the API version when initializing the GoogleAdsClient class:

• Passing in the version keyword arg to any of the initialization methods, which will apply to all service clients retrieved:
  • load_from_storage
  • load_from_env
  • load_from_string
  • load_from_dict
• Directly initializing the class with a version parameter client = GoogleAdsClient(... version=version ...)
• Manually setting the version property on an initialized client client.version = version
• Passing the version parameter into the get_service method, which will override the default version (i.e. latest) for just that individual service.

You could search your codebase for any patterns that might match the above. If your application truly is using version 23.0.0 of this library then there's no way it could default to v13 as that version isn't included in the list of available versions.

Thanks @BenRKarl

There is no mention at all of "version" or "v13" in my (small) codebase. I've just searched again using "Find in files" in VS Code and also checked some key parts manually.

But it's still using v13. In the terminal, I see the following lines in the error message:

In one line:

"Method: /google.ads.googleads.v13.services.GoogleAdsService/SearchStream"

And almost at the end:

File "C:\Users\myuser\.virtualenvs\Django-Allauth-x4AvHHo-\Lib\site-packages\google\ads\googleads\v13\services\services\google_ads_service\client.py", line 3559, in search_stream
    response = rpc(

But I have no idea where this is coming from or how to change it (I'm a noob).

If I do pip show google-ads it shows me Version: 23.0.0

Thanks again!

@miguelem Thanks for these details.

Would it be possible to add a line to your application to print the library version at runtime? You can add the below, and I recommend putting the print statement as close to the request logic as possible:

import google.ads.googleads
print(google.ads.googleads.VERSION)

Why I'm interested in this - if your application really was installing version 23.0.0 of this library, then it wouldn't be able to even send a request to the v13 endpoint, because the services and request messages aren't present.

[miguelem]

That printed "21.0.0". After checking everything more carefully, I noticed that I updated the API version on a different environment. I updated the correct environment and now my app it's working OK (using v15 automatically), so it was 100% caused by my silly mistake.

I'm so sorry for wasting your time! Thanks a lot for your help and patience!

@miguelem Not a waste at all, glad I could help!
