The latest release of the Data Manager API
introduces features that simplify
audience management, enhance ingestion workflows with field-level warnings,
and enable more granular user-provided data for Google Analytics.
Remove all audience members
Use the new
RemoveAllAudienceMembers
method to clear all members from specified user lists in a single operation.
The optional removeAsOfTime parameter lets you target only those
members added before a specific timestamp.
This is particularly useful when you need to perform a full refresh (or
"replace all") of your audience data, allowing you to clear the existing list
and populate it with a new set of users.
Ingestion field warnings
Data Manager API ingestion responses now include detailed field-level warnings
for validation issues on optional fields. If the API detects
validation issues with optional fields, your ingestion request will succeed
and the rest of your ingestion data will still be processed. Validation
failures for required fields will continue to fail the entire request
following the
fast-fail model.
If any optional field you provide is invalid, the response from
IngestEventsRequest
or
IngestAudienceMembersRequest
includes a field_warnings field with a list of
FieldWarning
objects. Each warning provides a specific reason (WarningReason), a descriptive message, and the location of the field in the request where
the issue occurred.
Additional address data for Google Analytics events
You can now provide additional user address information when ingesting events
to Google Analytics destinations. Along with the given_name,
family_name, region_code, and
postal_code fields,
AddressInfo
resource now supports:
address_line (street address)cityadministrative_area (state or province)
Also, you can now use the existing user-provided data (user_data)
field to meet the
Identifiers requirement for multi-source events sent to web data
streams. This gives you another option when you don't have the
ad_identifiers.gclid, user_id, or
client_id for a multi-source event.
