POST batch/accounts/:account_id/do_not_reach_lists/:do_not_reach_list_id/users

This endpoint allows users to be added, updated and removed from a given do_not_reach_list_id. This endpoint only accepts emails as the valid user identifier type.

All data being provided in the emails field of the request must be hashed using SHA256 and normalized.

Notes

  • An account_id can only have at most one Do Not Reach List
  • Users added to this list must have an expires_at timestamp set to less than 13 months from the current timestamp
  • Do Not Reach List API does not accept an effective_at timestamp and defaults to the current timestamp
  • Do Not Reach List does not remove users from any or all custom audiences in the account but acts as exclusion targeting for all campaigns served for the account

Batch Requests

  • The current maximum batch size is 2500 for this endpoint. The batch size is determined by the number of operations (Update/Delete) per request. For example, over 2500 operation objects ({"operation_type": "Update/Delete", [..] }) in one array result in an error.
  • The max request POST body size this endpoint can accept is 5,000,000 bytes.
  • The rate limits for this endpoint are 1500 per 1 minute window
  • All parameters are sent in the request body and a Content-Type of application/json is required.
  • Batch requests fail or succeed together as a group and all API responses for both error and success preserve the item order of the initial request.

Batch Responses

The response returned by the Ads API contains two fields, a success_count and a total_count. These values must always be equal, and they are a count of the number of records in the request that have been processed by the backend. A situation where the number of records sent in the request body is not equal the success_count and total_count should be treated as an error condition, requiring a retry.

Batch Errors

  • Request-level errors (eg. max batch size exceeded) are shown in the response under the errors object.
  • Item-level errors (eg. missing required parameters) are show in the response under the operation_errors object.
  • The index of the error in the operation_errors refers to the index in the input item, with the corresponding error message
