Hello Nikisha, Thanks for the reply. This is unfortunate, because we have a very large exclusion list (consisting of over 11,000 websites) on the top level management account, and it would be highly ineffective to re-create it on each client account.
What we are trying to implement is exclude all website placements using the list on campaign/ad group level. Is there a better method using the API? I know platforms cannot be used as negative criteria, and frankly, we are not looking to exclude platforms, but rather all websites regardless of where they might be displayed. Would the following work? Let's say we add all mobile app categories as positive placements (biddable criterion) for a campaign. Would this create a "white list" where the ads in the campaign can appear, effectively excluding websites?
