Hi,

I'm wondering if the Google Ads API supports applying placement exclusion lists to an account or ad group programmatically? I see that this is possible in the Google Ads user interface: https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/7331110.

I know that placement exclusion lists can be applied to campaigns using a combination of SharedSetService and CampaignSharedSetService API services. Is there something similar for account or ad group?

Thanks,

Michael Xue

Hi Michael,

Thank you for reaching support. It is possible to apply placement exclusion list programmatically at account level using CustomerNegativeCriterionService that allows you to exclude specific criteria across all campaigns in an account. To exclude a criteria at adgroup level, you will need to set the negative field to true. Let us know if you need additional information.
