Methods:

MemberTypeDescription
get() AdsApp.SearchAdGroupExcludedAudienceIterator Fetches the requested excluded audiences and returns an iterator.
orderBy(orderBy) AdsApp.SearchAdGroupExcludedAudienceSelector Specifies the ordering of the resulting entities.
withCondition(condition) AdsApp.SearchAdGroupExcludedAudienceSelector Adds the specified condition to the selector in order to narrow down the results.
withLimit(limit) AdsApp.SearchAdGroupExcludedAudienceSelector Specifies limit for the selector to use.

get()

Fetches the requested excluded audiences and returns an iterator.

Return values:

TypeDescription
AdsApp.SearchAdGroupExcludedAudienceIterator Iterator of the requested excluded audiences.

orderBy(orderBy)

Specifies the ordering of the resulting entities. orderBy parameter can have one of the following forms:
  • orderBy("ad_group.name") - orders results by ad_group.name, in ascending order.
  • orderBy("ad_group.name ASC") - orders results by ad_group.name, in ascending order.
  • orderBy("ad_group.name DESC") - orders results by ad_group.name, in descending order.

See SearchAdGroupExcludedAudienceSelector.withCondition(String) for enumeration of columns that can be used.

orderBy() may be called multiple times. Consider the following example: 

selector = selector.
    .orderBy("campaign.name")
    .orderBy("ad_group.name");

The results will be ordered by campaign.name in ascending order. Results with equal campaign.name value will be ordered by ad_group.name in ascending order.

Arguments:

NameTypeDescription
orderBy String Ordering to apply.

Return values:

TypeDescription
AdsApp.SearchAdGroupExcludedAudienceSelector The selector with ordering applied.

withCondition(condition)

Adds the specified condition to the selector in order to narrow down the results.

Multiple conditions may be added to the same selector: 

selector = selector
    .withCondition("ad_group.name REGEXP_MATCH 'a.*'")
    .withCondition("campaign.name = 'Campaign 1'");
 All specified conditions are AND-ed together. The above example will retrieve excluded audiences of type USER_LIST whose ad group name starts with 'a' and are in Campaign 1.

The parameter to be passed into this method must be of the following form: 

"COLUMN_NAME OPERATOR VALUE"

Operators

The operator that can be used in a condition depends on the type of column.
  • For String columns (e.g. ad_group.name): 
    =  !=  (NOT) (LIKE | CONTAINS | REGEXP_MATCH)
  • For Enumeration columns (ones that can only take one value from a pre-defined list, such as ad_group.status): 
    =  !=  IN () NOT IN ()
Conditions using IN, NOT IN, CONTAINS ALL, CONTAINS ANY and CONTAINS NONE operators look as follows: 
withCondition("KeywordMatchType IN (Value1, Value2)")

Columns

All column names are case-sensitive, and so are all values of enumerated columns (such as ad_group.status)

Column Type Example
Excluded audience attributes
ad_group.name String withCondition("ad_group.name REGEXP_MATCH '.*shoes.*'")
ad_group.status Enumeration: ENABLED, PAUSED, REMOVED withCondition("ad_group.status = ENABLED"). Use to fetch excluded audiences from only ENABLED ad groups.
campaign.name String withCondition("campaign.name REGEXP_MATCH '.*promotion.*'")
campaign.status Enumeration: ENABLED, PAUSED, REMOVED withCondition("campaign.status = ENABLED"). Use to fetch excluded audiences from only ENABLED campaigns.

Arguments:

NameTypeDescription
condition String Condition to add to the selector.

Return values:

TypeDescription
AdsApp.SearchAdGroupExcludedAudienceSelector The selector with the condition applied.

withLimit(limit)

Specifies limit for the selector to use. For instance, withLimit(50) returns only the first 50 entities.

Arguments:

NameTypeDescription
limit int How many entities to return.

Return values:

TypeDescription
AdsApp.SearchAdGroupExcludedAudienceSelector The selector with limit applied.
