Hello,

I've seen Google has recently added the possibility to create a single list of negative keywords that can be applied to campaigns within an MCC. I would like to know if the same functionality could be applied to share a list of negative placements across accounts within an MCC. Currently, I can do this for each single account using SharedSetService and SharedCriterionService. The problem is, I need to spawn copies of this shared set across all accounts of the MCC, with obvious rate litiming problems.

Any thoughts?

Thank you.

Sorry, I meant "can be applied to accounts within an MCC" instead of "campaigns".

Hi, 

By using Shared sets, you will be able to manage your negative keywords and placement exclusions across all campaigns in an account removing the need for duplication.

Unfortunately, we do not have any service that can be used to apply the keywords and placement exclusions across the accounts. If you haven't already, please follow the Ads Developer blog for updates and announcements. 

Thanks,
Sreelakshmi, AdWords API Team

Hi, I have a similar question, and am wondering if things have changed since the original post date. I would like to know if its possible to share MCC account level negative placements across sub-accounts with Google Ads API.

Hello Michael, 

The Google Ads API will have the same feature parity as AdWords API. This feature about sharing the MCC level negative criteria to all the sub-accounts is not supported in AdWords API, and is not yet available in Google Ads API too. Please keep an eye on our blog for details on upcoming releases. 

Thanks,
Bharani, Google Ads API Team
