Google Ads Exclude Placements In Smart Shopping Campaigns

Google seems to be testing a feature to exclude unwanted placements in Smart Shopping Campaigns within Google Ads. ADworld Experience posted this on Twitter but it is not clear if it works or if this was some sort of slip up from Google.

They said it “seems already available globally” but as Menachem Ani replied, he said it does not seem to save properly.

Here is the screenshot of this:

It doesn’t actually allow you to save anything – at least by me. pic.twitter.com/uSNpr6NZwK

It is unclear if this is fully being tested or something went wrong in the Google Ads interface.

Me too. We’ve had this feature for a while now, however the data in Reports seems incomplete?
