Need to develop a script to have a cap on MaxCpc auto bidding - can you help please?

[Dortech Direct]

Hi,

I have a script that automatically bids up high Impression production, with no clicks, by 10% increments each day, until such a time that someone clicks on that product. However I need to implement a control/cap on this and was wondering if anyone has anything that would work with this scenario. My base code is as follows:

function main() {

 

  var productGroups = AdsApp.productGroups() 

  .withCondition("Clicks = 0") 

  .withCondition("Impressions > 500")

  .forDateRange("ALL_TIME")

  .get();

   while(productGroups.hasNext()){

 var productGroup = productGroups.next();

  var currentMaxCpc = productGroup.getMaxCpc();

  productGroup.setMaxCpc( currentMaxCpc * 1.05 );

  }                           

}

ideally i'd like to exclude any products that have a MaxCpc =/> to £2.80.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Many Thanks,

James

I'm not familar with Google Ads or AdsApp, but couldn't you just add a condition before setting the max cpc?

function main() {

var cpcLimit = 2.8;

...

var currentMaxCpc = productGroup.getMaxCpc();

if (currentMaxCpc < cpcLimit) productGroup.setMaxCpc(currentMaxCpc * 1.05);
