Account-level content label exclusions

Editor now supports account-level content label exclusions. You can find this in your Google Ads account under Tools. Under Tools, navigate to Content Suitability, under which you’ll find Excluded sensitive content, Excluded types and labels, and Excluded content themes.

When migrating Display Ads to Performance Max, content label exclusions from the source Display campaign are migrated to the account level.

Under Tools, navigate to Content Suitability, under which you’ll find Excluded sensitive content, Excluded types and labels, and Excluded content themes.

Other account-level settings

Now, Editor also supports other account-level settings, such as inventory types.

Fixed CPM bidding strategy

The Reserve cost-per-thousand impressions (CPM) bidding strategy is now renamed to Fixed CPM. Editor now supports creating Video campaigns with this bidding strategy.

Reasons for paused keywords

Editor, now displays in the Status column, the reason for keywords that are automatically paused. For example, Editor will show "Paused (Low activity)" for keywords with no impressions for a specific period. These reasons can also be filtered.

Export selected types to CSV

You can now choose the specific types of data to export to CSV files. For example, you can export only a subset of ad types.

Checkbox to “Hide empty items"

You can now find a checkbox to “Hide empty items” within the “Manage” pane at the bottom left. This checkbox can also be found in the 3-dot menu.

Video format preferences for Demand Gen Video ads

Now, you can set your format preferences for individual Demand Gen Video ads. For each video, you can set a preference for In-stream, In-feed, Shorts, or any combination of the three. Also, you can set "no preference, can serve anywhere" for a video, which means it can serve anywhere.


Deprecated features
