But when i preview its doesn’t bring up any message and even when I run its after authorize…. It’s shows failed in the script dashboard. Is this script still working fine or is there something else I need to add?

The script uses ‘LAST_7_DAYS’ by default and, as such, would collect performance data for any active placement in the last 7 days. As in the post, you can also use ‘TODAY’, ‘YESTERDAY’, ‘LAST_30_DAYS’ amongst others.

I would run the script hourly (you can define this when you set it up – just like a cron job) with as large a timeframe as practical.

I think that’s a great use case. Would be good for longer sign-up forms…we’ve also seen similar in the content arbitrage space.

‘LAST_7_DAYS

Does this mean the script will only look at performances after 7 days?
I want to set its to look at performance everyday?

What do you think?

This would occur if the Placement Exclusion List is either not yet created (go to Tools at the top of the Google Ads dashboard, select ‘Placement exclusion lists’ under the heading ‘Shared Library’ to create one) OR not correctly referenced in the code – look for the following line:

var excludedPlacementList = "Auto Placement (Scripts) - Performance";

In our example the Placement Exclusion List is called Auto Placement (Scripts) – Performance, ensure the script references whatever you have called yours.

Getting this error:
“Cannot retrieve the next object: iterator has reached the end. (file Code.gs, line 52)”

Thanks Daniel. We’ll look to upload some more free Google Ads scripts in the coming weeks, is there anything in particular you’d like to see?
