Input data

The input data structure in JSON is shown below.

{
   "method": "UpdatePrices",
   "param": [
      {  /* PhrasePriceInfo */
         "CampaignID": (int),
         "PhraseID": (long),
         "Price": (float),
         "ContextPrice": (float),
         "AutoBroker": (string),
         "AutoBudgetPriority": (string),
         "Currency": (string)
      }
      ...
   ]
}

The param parameter contains an array of PhrasePriceInfo objects (no more than 1000 objects), each of which sets prices for a single keyword. Parameters are described below.

^Parameter	^Description	^Required
_{PhrasePriceInfo object}
`CampaignID`	The campaign ID.	Yes
`PhraseID`	The keyword ID.	Yes
`Price`	Bid on Yandex search (in the currency specified in the `Currency` parameter). Used only if a strategy with manual bid management is selected for the campaign. The maximum and minimum values are provided in the {#T} table. If the value is converted from Yandex units to the campaign currency before saving, it is rounded up to the nearest bid increment in this currency (see the section Real currencies instead of Yandex units). If converting the value to the campaign's currency results in a value that is less than the minimum bid or more than the maximum bid for this currency, it is set to equal the minimum or maximum bid, respectively.	At least one of the parameters: `Price`, `AutoBudgetPriority`, `ContextPrice`. Values of omitted parameters are not changed.
`ContextPrice`	Bid in the Yandex Advertising Network (in the currency specified in the `Currency` parameter). The parameter is available for editing in the following cases: When the MaximumCoverage strategy is selected for the Yandex Advertising Network. When the Default strategy is selected for the Yandex Advertising Network and the keyword is disabled on the search due to a low CTR. For new keywords this condition is irrelevant, since keywords are no longer disabled for a low CTR. The maximum and minimum values are provided in the {#T} table. If the value is converted from Yandex units to the campaign currency before saving, it is rounded up to the nearest bid increment in this currency (see the section Real currencies instead of Yandex units). If converting the value to the campaign's currency results in a value that is less than the minimum bid or more than the maximum bid for this currency, it is set to equal the minimum or maximum bid, respectively.
`AutoBudgetPriority`	Priority of the keyword when using automatic strategies. Possible values: Low — Low priority. Medium — Average priority. High — High priority.
`AutoBroker`	Enable/disable AutoBroker. This parameter is not used, and the passed value is ignored.	No
`Currency`	The currency that bids are shown in. Acceptable values: RUB, CHF, EUR, KZT, TRY, UAH, USD, BYN. The value must match the campaign's currency. If this parameter is omitted or NULL, Yandex units are used. In this case, if the campaign is run using real currency, the bids passed by the application are converted to the actual currency before saving (see the section Real currencies instead of Yandex units). If the value is something other than NULL but it does not match the currency of the campaign or one of the campaigns, an error is returned with code 245.	No
