How to exclude an audience from a shopping campaign?

[Sigurd Fabrin]

Hi,

How can I exclude an audience from a shopping campaign?

- it seems that it is only possible to add as positive audience 

 

I'd like to to something like this example but with shopping campaigns 

I imagined smth like this could work, but it doesn't:

var campaignSelectors = [AdsApp.campaigns(),AdsApp.shoppingCampaigns()];

var audienceIter = AdsApp.userlists()

   .get();

     while (audienceIter.hasNext()) {

      var audience = audienceIter.next();

 for (i=0;i<campaignSelectors.length;i++) {

      var campaignIter = campaignSelectors[i]

      .get();

      while (campaignIter.hasNext()) {

        var campaign = campaignIter.next();

 //campaign.targeting().newUserListBuilder().withAudienceId(audience.getId()).build() // This works with search AND shopping

     campaign.targeting().newUserListBuilder().withAudience(audience).exclude(); // This only works with search  campaigns

       }

      }

    }

Thanks

Hi Harry,

OK, too bad. But thanks for the answer.

Would be great if you can request this to be included in scripts.

I use it mostly to synchronise audiences between campaigns to make sure all relevant lists are applied.
