Mutate Ad Group CriteriaGOOGLEADS_MUTATE_AD_GROUP_CRITERIA
Create, update, or remove criteria attached to a Google Ads ad group in a single batch request. Supports keywords (positive and negative), audience targeting (user lists, custom audiences, combined audiences, in-market/affinity), demographics (age range, gender, parental status, income range), placements (websites, mobile apps, YouTube channels/videos), topics, webpages (for Dynamic Search Ads), and listing groups (for Shopping). Use this to programmatically manage keyword bids and match types, build audience targeting, or prune underperforming criteria. Remove operations are irreversible — deleted criteria cannot be recovered. For testing, set validate_only=true to dry-run without committing changes.
