Hey Nick,
We ran Individual Account script and all it did was to create thousands of exception labels and that's all. No campaigns or ads were paused, just added labels. Why is this happening, what am I doing wrong?

Michelle Tan • 2 years ago

Hi Nick,

Does this run with Pmax?

Jose • 2 years ago

Hi Nick,

Appreciate you sharing this script, cuts down a lot of time I can use to optimize campaigns. I do have a question: do I have to setup the frequency of the script to hourly in the platform, or leave it blank and it still does the hourly checkup?

Cheers!

Nick Partridge • 2 years ago

Hi Jose, glad to hear you like the script. You have to set it up to run hourly.

Nick, thanks for the great script with MCC support.

Any chance you could configure it to reference a list of budgets from a spreadsheet?

Laurean Vincent • 3 years ago

Hi Nick, really enjoying these scripts and using them on all my client accounts. However, some accounts have client-run campaigns that I need to exclude from the SPEND calculation and pause/unpause. Right now, it seems the EXCLUDE labels only exclude those campaigns from being paused/unpaused. Is there a away to exclude, using the same labels, from the SPEND totals? I tried to click on your link from another comment to ask you this in Upwork, but the profile no longer exists?

Nick Partridge • 3 years ago

Hi Laurean Vincent, glad to hear you're finding the scripts useful. The upwork link should still work (at least it did when I tried it just now, you need an account to open it though I believe) or you could email me from the contact page.

Laurean Vincent • 3 years ago

email sent.

Hi Nick. I have a fear of pausing campaigns because I have had bad experiences starting them back up. Is there a way to lower the campaigns budget instead?

Nick Partridge • 3 years ago

Hi JD, this particular script doesn't lower the campaign budgets, but I'm sure that you could get somebody to write a script along those lines fairly easily.

JD • 3 years ago

Any chance you could? :)

Nick Partridge • 3 years ago

Sure I can, you can send me an email on the contact page or check out my UpWork profile.

Dudi • 4 years ago

Does the script make my campaigns active again after the month?

Nick Partridge • 4 years ago

Hi Dudi, yes the script will automatically re-activate your campaigns on the 1st of the following month.

MCC Script error: Exception: One of the conditions in the query is invalid. (file Code.gs, line 2)

Nick Partridge • 4 years ago

Hi Dudi, that's an odd error to be getting, did you make any customisations (adding client ids, changing label names, etc) to the script?

Kamil Krzyżoś • 4 years ago

hello :)
is it possible to rewrite the script so that it can be used in discovery and local campaigns?

Nick Partridge • 4 years ago

Hi Kamil, as far as I'm aware it's not yet possible to target Discovery or Local campaigns, perhaps with the new beta that's recently come out they'll add support for these campaign types. If they do I'll be sure to update the script.

Kamil Krzyżoś • 3 years ago

Hello,
Perhaps you have already checked the campaign discovery support?

Kamil Krzyżoś • 4 years ago

hello, have you tried to update this script with campaigns local and discovery ?

Kamil Krzyżoś • 4 years ago

thanks Nick

What should we be including as the "Account: " within the Individual Account Version? I tried initially running the script with after adding in the var MAX_TOTALS = 4000 and also changing the time period to THIS_MONTH, however, I got an error on line 56. The ReferenceError was that the "account" is not defined. I tried using the full name on the account that I am using, ad I also tried using the CID but it keeps stating that the account s undefined. Thank you!

Nick Partridge • 4 years ago

Hi Mike, sorry I accidently left a bit of code from the MCC version in the individual version, you can either remove the ""Account: " + account.getName() + " - " +" from your code (line 56), or you can copy the code again directly from this post, which I've now updated. Thanks for letting me know!

Mike Indrikovic • 4 years ago

Thanks, Nick! This worked perfectly! I have another follow up question for you. Have you looked into whether or not Google allows this to work for Smart Shopping yet?

Nick Partridge • 4 years ago

Glad to hear it works Mike :) From what I can tell targeting Smart Shopping still isn't supported.
