AI-generated Key Takeaways
The ad group criterion simulation resource provides data on the performance of ad group criteria under simulated conditions.
Supported simulation combinations include various advertising channels, criterion types, simulation types, and modification methods, such as DISPLAY-KEYWORD-CPC_BID-UNIFORM and HOTEL-LISTING_GROUP-PERCENT_CPC_BID-UNIFORM.
Fields from related resources like ad_group, ad_group_criterion, campaign, and customer can be selected with this resource, but they will not segment metrics.
Key fields available for selection include ad group ID, criterion ID, simulation start and end dates, modification method, simulation type, and resource name.
An ad group criterion simulation. Supported combinations of advertising channel type, criterion type, simulation type, and simulation modification method are detailed below respectively. Hotel AdGroupCriterion simulation operations starting in V5. 1. DISPLAY - KEYWORD - CPC_BID - UNIFORM 2. SEARCH - KEYWORD - CPC_BID - UNIFORM 3. SHOPPING - LISTING_GROUP - CPC_BID - UNIFORM 4.
