Protobuf Error with googleads.yaml #509

Closed haylie-murray closed 1 year ago

haylie-murray commented 2 years ago

Hello,

I have been getting an error of ValueError: The client library configuration is missing the required "use_proto_plus" key. Please set this option to either "True" or "False". For more information about this option see the Protobuf Messages guide: https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/client-libs/python/protobuf-messages,

I have read the message guide and have added use_proto_plust: True to the https://github.com/googleads/googleads-python-lib/blob/master/googleads.yaml. I am still getting this error, is there something I might be missing?

@haylie-murray - where exactly did you add the use_proto_plus key? Was it in the yaml file that you're using to initialize your GoogleAdsClient instance? If you're using a different initialization work flow, i.e. load_from_dict, you will need to add this key to that configuration.

This seems relevant to the newer google-ads-python library for Google Ads rather than this library. Likewise, there hasn't been any activity since the initial response, so I will close this under the assumption that the earlier guidance resolved the issue.
