Excluding > 1000 items from Performance Max Campaigns

[Richard Cutting]

Hi,

Is it possible to create a Perfomance Max campaign where I can have 1000+ itemId's that I do not want to be served up by ads, but everything else in the feed can be.

We've tried by creating multiple asset groups in the campaign (due to the 1000 item limit on an asset group) with each asset group excluding 998 items and having an everything else subdivision but it appears that the asset groups are being treated separately so if I have an itemId excluded in one asset group the everything else clause in a different asset group will cause that item to be served by ads.

Appreciate that this isn't directly an API question but we are using the Ads API to create the campaigns.

Richard.

That should read due to the 1000 item limit on a listing group with each listing group excluding 998 items and having an everything else included subdivision.
