Create and edit notes

The first and easiest way to create a note is to hover over a node on a performance graph and add a note from the information card that appears.

1. Sign in to your Google Ads account.
2. Click Campaigns or Ad groups in the page menu on the left.
3. Use the date selector above the performance graph to select a date range of data that you’d like to view.
4. Hover over a circular node on the performance graph at the top of the page. Square nodes indicate existing notes, which you can edit.
5. Click Add note. You can also click See all notes to view and edit any existing notes for this campaign or ad group.
   • Notes are added to the ad group or campaign that you’re viewing when creating the note. If you haven’t selected a specific campaign or ad group in the left-hand navigation panel, your note is added at your Google Ads account level.
6. Type the content of your note in 'Enter your note'.
7. Click Save

The second way allows you to add a note to any date, without having to select a specific point on the performance graph first. With this method, you’re also able to see all existing notes in the notes panel.

3. Click the 3-dot icon  above the table of results.
