The automated promotions feed helps you to automatically share your live promotions with Google without having to manually create them in your Merchant Center account.
Google will extract eligible live promotions from your products' web pages (also referred to as the product detail page) so that they will be automatically showcased on free listings and Shopping ads on Google. If available, Google will also extract the promotion coupon codes. After extraction, you can find the details of these promotions in your Google Merchant Center account under the 'Promotions' page.
Google will regularly verify if a promotion is still valid. If a promotion is no longer available for a product, it will be automatically removed from Google's platforms.
