Is there a way to add Negative Keywords to a Shopping Campaign using Google Ads script?

[Amit Ramani]

I understand you can programmatically add keywords (and search terms) to a Negative Keyword List for a regular text campaign,  using Google Ads scrips. 

I would like to do the same for Google Shopping campaigns. So far, I have not found any reference. Is that even possible? 

Obviously, you can look at the Search Term report under  Keywords in the Ad Words interface. So why can not that Search Term list be accessed in Google Ads Scripts?

I hope someone else has run into this before and found a solution. When I look at the Search Term report, there is a ton of wasted clicks because the search terms are being matched incorrectly.

Hi Amit,

Could you confirm if my understanding is correct that your concern is adding keywords to a negative keyword list which is added to a shopping campaign? If yes, it is possible by using addNegativeKeyword() or addNegativeKeywords() method. Otherwise, could you further elaborate what you meant by this "I would like to do the same for Google Shopping campaigns."?

With regard to Search Terms, it is currently only possible to get through Search Query Performance Report, and not possible to add Search Terms.

Please let me know if you have further concerns.
