ad_group_criterion.status
Field description
The status of the criterion. This is the status of the ad group criterion entity, set by the client. Note: UI reports may incorporate additional information that affects whether a criterion is eligible to run. In some cases a criterion that's REMOVED in the API can still show as enabled in the UI. For example, campaigns by default show to users of all age ranges unless excluded. The UI will show each age range as "enabled", since they're eligible to see the ads; but AdGroupCriterion.status will show "removed", since no positive criterion was added.
Conditions, or logical expressions, for webpage targeting. The list of webpage targeting conditions are and-ed together when evaluated for targeting. An empty list of conditions indicates all pages of the campaign's website are targeted. This field is required for CREATE operations and is prohibited on UPDATE operations.
Website criteria coverage percentage. This is the computed percentage of website coverage based on the website target, negative website target and negative keywords in the ad group and campaign. For instance, when coverage returns as 1, it indicates it has 100% coverage. This field is read-only.
