Today I went to check my client centre, it shows me the quotas for this month is 10,000. But when I try to upload some more adgroups, I got errors from AdWords Web Services:
--------------------------------------
FAULT: 1
Code: soapenv:Server.userException
String: This account has exceeded its call quota.
--------------------------------------
I wonder if google treat March 1st as the February day so the March 10,000 qutoas not for using on March 1st
Another question, how to calculate the quotas used exactly? It seems the 10,000 qutoas can be easily ran out.
So, for example, if I want to create 10 Ad Groups, I might either call method addAdGroup() 10 times or addAdGroupList() 1 time,
are there any difference on the qutoa used by using the above two methods?
I am not facing the trouble with the quotas. But the MCC interface does seems to be showing the month as March. As for your question regarding the operations used, there was a minor update to the API. Here is more information on it
A new header named operations is now in the SOAP responses that the AdWords API server sends to your programs. This header tells you how many quota operations the API call cost you.
As for your other question regarding whether to use AddAdGroup 10 times or AddAdGroupList, both should use the same number of operations. Here is the quote from the Developer's reference
Usage of the AdWords API is counted in terms of operations, where an operation is the smallest unit of work, for example, setting the bid on a single keyword. A single SOAP call usually contains many operations. Every AdWords API account has a quota of a number of operations you can issue per month. If you exceed your quota then your API calls will fail.
