Upgraded Urls and Sitelinks

[Igor Schut]

Hi there,

While the deadline for upgraded urls is coming closer and closer, we are preparing for the migration.

Me and my colleagues are wondering what this would mean for Sitelink Feeds which are not created by AdWords (origin user). Are these upgraded automatically or are we required to add the final url attributes ourselves?

What would happen with the Sitelinks when we do not migrate before the given deadline?

Thanks in advance,

Igor

Hi Igor,

Sitelinks with ORIGIN=USER needs to be updated by the user. You'd need to

- Add new columns in the feed for upgraded url fields

- Add proper feed mapping for the new columns

- Migrate the urls as per the upgraded urls rules.

Sitelinks which aren't upgraded and belonging to ORIGIN=USER would eventually stop serving if left unattended, but as of now we haven't announced a date when this behaviour kicks in.
