Dynamic remarketing enables your campaign to serve ads tailored to a user's past
behaviour. When a user is added to a dynamic remarketing list, the ID of an
asset is also provided in the tracking pixel. When a user from the list sees
an ad, the content for the ad is dynamically rendered from the underlying
AssetSet.
This document describes the process for managing dynamic remarketing campaigns with assets for dynamic content.
Create assets to serve in your dynamic remarketing campaign
You can use the API to manage assets that contain the custom content for your
ad. The Asset contains an ID which can be used in the
tracking pixel, together with the customized content to serve in the ad.

Package assets together into an AssetSet
An AssetSet represents the collection of
Asset objects which can be used for dynamic remarketing
in a particular campaign. An AssetSet can be associated with many campaigns
that can reuse the same group of Assets as required. This is similar to how the
Google Ads UI lets you specify the "data feed" for a dynamic remarketing campaign.
The first step is to create a new AssetSet to house your assets.

Target a UserList
Once you've set up your campaign with a dynamic remarketing feed, you can
target it with a UserList. This user list should
have been created with the dynamic IDs populated in the tracking pixel.

Download reports for your dynamic remarketing campaign
There is no reporting available for assets in dynamic remarketing campaigns in order to maintain feature parity with the legacy feeds-based setup, which had no FeedItem-level stats. Reporting for dynamic remarketing assets could be added in a later release.
Specify asset tracking IDs
There are at least two IDs present in each dynamic remarketing asset. Each dynamic remarketing asset type defines its own unique ID.
For example, in the case of DynamicEducationAsset, you should specify the
dynamic_education_asset.program_id and optionally
dynamic_education_asset.location_id in the tracking pixel.
Don't specify asset.id in the tracking pixel as this has no meaning outside
of the Google Ads API.
