API Field + GAQL Query for Audience “Targeting setting for this campaign” (Search Campaigns)

[Hardeep Singh]

Hi Google Ads Support Team,

In the Search campaign creation flow (“Create a campaign without guidance → Search”), there is a setting called “Targeting setting for this campaign” with options Targeting and Observation (Audience settings).

I need clarification on:

1. Which Google Ads API field corresponds to this option?

   • Please share a sample API request showing how to set this value during campaign creation.

2. A GAQL query example to retrieve this field for an existing Search campaign.

Your help in resolving this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
