abstract type SearchParameter (v201506)

A set of SearchParameters is supplied to the TargetingIdeaSelector to specify how the user wants to filter the set of all possible TargetingIdeas.

There is a SearchParameter for each type of input. SearchParameters can conceptually be broken down into two types.

• Input SearchParameters provide the seed information from which ideas or stats are to be generated (e.g., RelatedToQuerySearchParameter, RelatedToUrlSearchParameter, etc.). This type of SearchParameters is required in requests.
• Filter SearchParameters (e.g., CompetitionSearchParameter, etc.) are used to trim down the results based on Attribute-related information.

A request should only contain one instance of each SearchParameter. Requests containing multiple instances of the same search parameter will be rejected.

One or more of the following SearchParameters are required:

• CategoryProductsAndServicesSearchParameter
• LocationSearchParameter
• RelatedToQuerySearchParameter
• RelatedToUrlSearchParameter
• SeedAdGroupIdSearchParameter
