How to exclude mobile apps from GDN Campaigns?

[Alberto Esteves Correia]

Hello,

I'm looking for a way to exclude mobille apps from Display campaign. Although I've found this thread asking for the same, there is no public answer yet

Example: I want to exclude placements with a higher Ctr than 10% at adGroup level (at all adGroups of Display campaigns). 

function main() {

  var adGroupsIterator = AdWordsApp.adGroups()

                                   .withCondition("AdGroupStatus IN [ENABLED, PAUSED]")

                                   .withCondition("CampaignStatus IN [ENABLED, PAUSED]")

                                   .withCondition("AdGroupType IN ['DISPLAY_STANDARD','DISPLAY_ENGAGEMENT']")

                                   .get();

  

  while (adGroupsIterator.hasNext()) {

    var placementsIterator = AdWordsApp.display().placements()

   .withCondition("Ctr > 0.1")

   .get();    

    var adGroup = adGroupsIterator.next();

    

    while (placementsIterator.hasNext()){

      var placement = placementsIterator.next();

      placement.remove();

    }

  }

}

With this script, I exclude the Web placements, but no mobile apps ones. 

How Can I include mobile apps placements?

Thanks!

Hi Alberto,

I've checked for any relevant updates but it appears support for mobile app exclusion still has not been added. This sort of update will be posted on our blog.

Hello Sravani,

I also need a way to exclude mobile apps via Ad scripts. Do you have any idea if and when this might be added? I know that you cannot provide a precise date, but it would be nice to know whether this is already on the to-do list or not planned at all.

Thanks

Claudia

Hello Claudia,

At the moment, I do not have any information on potential mobile app exclusion changes on the horizon, but we will post about it as soon as possible, if and when those changes are made.
