Campaigns, ad groups, responsive search ads, and keywords, among others can be set up and managed manually through automation using Templates.
Use filters and additional reporting columns to view items that were generated by Templates:
- Sign in to your new Search Ads 360.
- Navigate to a sub-manager account.
- From the page menu, select either the Campaigns, Ad groups, Ads, or Keywords tab.
- Using the “Columns” button, add a column to your view for “Template name” under the “Attributes” dropdown. Optionally, you can also add “Template Management Status” and “Template ID”.
- Template names will now appear in the “Template name” column of the listed entities. You can use additional filtering to locate specific entities or Templates. For Template-specific filtering, you can use the fields “Template Name”, “Template Management Status”, or “Template ID.
- Optionally save the view so you can return to it later.
Template name Column
The Template name column will always show either the template that created the entity or the template that currently manages the entity. A blank Template name column means the entity is not associated with any template. If you’re in the process of placing manually created entities under template management, this column will remain blank until the entity is correctly named and the next system evaluation occurs. After entities are associated with a template, this column will contain the relevant template name.
Unable to find the "Template name" filter?
Make sure you're on a tab that contains items Search Ads 360 can generate using Templates. For example, the filter doesn't appear if you're on the Product groups tab because Templates doesn't generate product groups. Learn more About Templates functionality.
Negative match
Filters and additional reporting columns aren't available for negative match, so it isn't possible to determine which match was generated by ”Templates”.
