*
* Advanced ad scheduling
*
* This script will apply ad schedules to campaigns or shopping campaigns and set
* the ad schedule bid modifier and mobile bid modifier at each hour according to
* multiplier timetables in a Google sheet.
*
* This version creates schedules with modifiers for 4 hours, then fills the rest
* of the day and the other days of the week with schedules with no modifier as a
* fail safe.
*
* Version: 3.3
* Updated 2019-08-07 to fix bug with shopping campaigns
