add

Creates smart banner targeting filters and assigns CPC, CPA, or priority to the created filters.

  1. Restrictions
  2. Request
  3. Response

CPC, CPA, or priority is used depending on which display strategy is selected in the campaign:

  • If the campaign uses the AVERAGE_ROI strategy, the StrategyPriority parameter is used: filters with higher priority get more traffic in search results or audience share in ad networks if possible. If the budget runs low, they are the last ones to be disabled.
  • If the campaign uses the AVERAGE_CPA_PER_CAMPAIGN or AVERAGE_CPA_PER_FILTER strategy, the AverageCpa parameter is used.
  • If the campaign uses the AVERAGE_CPC_PER_CAMPAIGN or AVERAGE_CPC_PER_FILTER strategy, the AverageCpc parameter is used.

If a bid or priority is specified that does not match the strategy, it is ignored.

If the strategy involves setting a bid and the bid is omitted, the bid from the strategy settings is used. If the strategy involves setting priority and the priority is omitted, an error is returned.

Attention.
  • Bids and prices are passed via the Yandex Direct API as integers. The value passed is a bid or price multiplied by 1,000,000.

  • All bids and prices are shown in the advertiser's currency.

Restrictions

Filters for smart banners can only be added to a SMART_AD_GROUP type of ad group.

Maximum of 50 filters per ad group.

Maximum of 1000 filters per method call.
