Demographics bid adjustments at campaign level

[Anil]

Hello,

Is it possible to set demographics (Gender & Age Range) at campaign level with bid adjustments using API?

I can see an option to add demographic bid adjustments at ad groups level through API.

Thanks

Hello Anil,

I'm afraid its not possible to add bid modifiers for Gender and AgeRange criterion at the Campaign level. You can only exclude these criteria at the campaign level by adding a NegativeCampaignCriterion. This table shows the targeting and bidding options available for different criterion types both at AdGroup level and Campaign level. You will be able to set the campaign level bid adjustments using the CampaignCriterionService and CampaignBidModifierService mutate operation for other criteria types. You may refer to this guide and the code sample for adding, updating and removing bid adjustments. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Are there any plans to open this up to the API now that they UI supports it?

Hello Matthew, 

If you're looking to add add bid modifiers for Gender and AgeRange criterion at the Campaign level, I'm afraid its currently not possible do so through the API. If your concern is different, could you please elaborate?

I understand it does not currently support it. The question is, will it be added soon?

The UI supports it so it seems a reasonable addition to the API.

Hello Matthew, 

Currently, we do not have any information if and when this feature will be available through the API. Please keep an eye out on our blog for more updated regarding this feature.
