Best practices for setting up Search Ads 360 Smart Bidding strategies

View or remove a conversion goal

In the previous Search Ads 360, advertisers can configure campaigns to optimize with adaptive
and bid adjustments features using a conversion goal. This feature is no longer available in the new
Search Ads 360 and therefore is being deprecated starting February 1, 2023.

A conversion goal also serves as a reporting column.  If you want to view the column settings or remove a conversion goal, you can navigate to the campaign settings of a Google Ads or Microsoft Advertising campaign or navigate to a bid strategy opportunity.

Conversion goals aren't editable.

You can remove a conversion goal only if it isn't used in a campaign, budget plan, or bid strategy opportunity.
