Hello,

This mcc level remarketing list was asked almost a year ago, and the answer from 'Danial' was no, is this possible, now?

Hi Zia,

Yes, remarketing lists can be created at the Manager level using both AdWords UI as well as AdWords API. You can set the Manager's accountId as the clientCustomerId in the API request to create user lists in the Manager account. These remarketing lists should be shared with the client accounts to be used in their campaigns. The instructions to set up list sharing are provided here. More information about list sharing is provided here.

Hello Shwetha,

Thanks will give it a try, and just before completing the thread, which service would be suitable to do the assignment of mcc accountid to the clientcustomerid, would i be correct in assuming to use AdwordsUserListService?

Hi Zia,

Yes, you need to use AdwordsUserListService and provide the manager's account ID in the clientCustomerId header in the request to create user lists in your manager account.

Hi Shwetrha,

Thanks again for your reply, my question is centred around this "The instructions to set up list sharing are provided here.", specially the instructions under the title "Share lists created by a managed account", more than anything else.  How, can i do this using the api, if possible, looking at this AdwordsUserLIstService, can create a new crmbased list assigning members through the api, but then again how to share this list across selected managed accounts, this is what i am after.

regards,

Zia

Hi Zia,

Unfortunately, there does not seem to be a way to share user lists via API like in those instructions. The field accessReason, which corresponds to the "Owner" column in the UI, is a read-only field and will be ignored when trying to set it.

Currently, it is only available via the UI. Please see our blog regarding any announcements for this feature.
