Provides access to this campaign's video targeting criteria.
addAdSchedule(adSchedule)
Creates an ad schedule criterion from an ad schedule object. Once created,
the campaign will start showing ads during the specified time.
When called with one argument, addAdSchedule supports two
kinds of input:
Existing AdSchedule objects,
perhaps from another campaign:
var campaigns = AdsApp.videoCampaigns().get();
var campaign1 = campaigns.next();
var campaign2 = campaigns.next();
var schedule = campaign1.targeting().adSchedules().get().next();
campaign2.addAdSchedule(schedule);
Plain JavaScript objects describing an ad schedule. For instance,
this will create an ad schedule covering Saturday mornings:
This will look at the following properties of the given object:
dayOfWeek: Required. Must be one
of "MONDAY", "TUESDAY",
"WEDNESDAY", "THURSDAY",
"FRIDAY", "SATURDAY", or
"SUNDAY".
startHour and startMinute:
Required. The starting time of this segment of
the ad schedule. startHour must be an integer
between 0 and 23, and
startMinute must be either 0,
15, 30, or 45. For
instance, a startHour of 18 and a
startMinute of 30 would result in an
ad schedule starting at 6:30PM. Acceptable starting times range
from 00:00 to 23:45.
endHour and endMinute:
Required. The ending time of this segment of
the ad schedule. endHour must be an integer
between 0 and 24, and
endMinute must be either 0,
15, 30, or 45. For
instance, a endHour of 18 and a
endMinute of 30 would result in an ad
schedule ending at 6:30PM. Acceptable ending times range from
00:15 to 24:00.
bidModifier: Optional. The bid
modifier for this segment of the ad schedule.
One thing to keep in mind is that, by default, campaigns have no ad
schedule criteria and hence serve ads at all times. Adding the first ad
schedule to a campaign will cause ads to be shown during that time only.
There is a limit of 6 ad schedules for each day of the week — for
instance, splitting up each day into 6 4-hour-long periods is supported,
but splitting up each day into 24 1-hour-long periods is not.
Creates an ad schedule criterion. Once created, the campaign will start
showing ads during the specified time.
For instance, this will create an ad schedule covering Saturday
mornings:
var campaign = AdsApp.videoCampaigns().get().next();
campaign.addAdSchedule("SATURDAY", 7, 0, 11, 0);
This will create the same schedule, but with a bid modifier of
1.1:
var campaign = AdsApp.videoCampaigns().get().next();
campaign.addAdSchedule("SATURDAY", 7, 0, 11, 0, 1.1);

object.
The existing Language objects can be
from another campaign:

created, the campaign will start showing ads to the location with the given
location ID.
Creates a location target in this campaign from a location. Once created,
the campaign will start showing ads to the location with the given location
ID.
You must specify an existing TargetedLocation object, perhaps

var campaign1 = campaigns.next();
var campaign2 = campaigns.next();
var location = campaign1.targeting().targetedLocations().get().next();
campaign2.addLocation(location);
Creates a location target in this campaign from a location JSON. Once
created, the campaign will start showing ads to the location with the given
location ID.
You must specify a plain JavaScript object describing a location. For
instance, this would create a location target for Tennessee:
var campaign = AdsApp.campaigns().get().next();
campaign.addLocation({
id: 21175,
bidModifier: 1.2,
});
This will look at the following properties of the given object:

var proximity = campaign1.targeting().targetedProximities().get().next();
campaign2.addProximity(proximity);

would create a proximity targeting 20km around Google headquarters:
This will look at the following properties of the given object:
latitude and longitude:
Required. The central geographic point of the

Required. The radius around the central point
to target. radiusUnits must be either
"MILES" or "KILOMETERS".
bidModifier: Optional. The bid

associated with the central geographical point.
If present, this is expected to be an object, which contains
any of streetAddress, streetAddress2,
cityName, provinceName,
provinceCode, postalCode, and
countryCode as properties with string values. This
corresponds to the Address
objects returned by existing proximity targets.
There is no validation to check that the address actually
belongs to the given latitude and longitude. It has no
functionality except to change what shows up in the Campaign
Management interface.
Creates a proximity target in this campaign. Once created, the campaign
will start showing ads to geographical points within the specified radius
of the specified central point.
For instance, this will create a proximity targeting 20km around Google
headquarters:
