ApplyProductPartitionActions internal error

Question

Docs are unclear. And I'm getting an internal error.

If you generate the SOAP manually, use the type attribute...

Request:

For more information about the error, either turn on IncludeExceptionDetailInFaults (either from ServiceBehaviorAttribute or from the &lt;serviceDebug&gt; configuration behavior) on the server in order to send the exception information back to the client, or turn on tracing as per the Microsoft .NET Framework SDK documentation and inspect the server trace logs.</faultstring>

Yes I tried including the i:type and xmlns:i from the docs but that just throws a parsing error instead of an internal error.

After a lot of tinkering I resolved it with this:

<ns1:AdGroupCriterionAction>  
    <ns1:Action>Update</ns1:Action>  
    <ns1:AdGroupCriterion xsi:type="ns1:BiddableAdGroupCriterion">  
        <ns1:AdGroupId>REDACTED</ns1:AdGroupId>  
        <ns1:Criterion xsi:nil="true"/>  
        <ns1:Id>REDACTED</ns1:Id>  
        <ns1:Status xsi:nil="true"/>  
        <ns1:Type xsi:nil="true"/>  
        <ns1:CriterionBid xsi:type="ns1:FixedBid">  
            <ns1:Type xsi:nil="true"/>  
            <ns1:Amount>0.1234</ns1:Amount>  
        </ns1:CriterionBid>
