StructuredSnippetAdExtension Data Object - Campaign Management

Defines an object that pairs one header with between 3 and 10 snippet values that tell customers more about your business.

In the following example, Courses is the header, and .NET, Java, Python, and PHP are examples of individual values.

You can associate a structured snippet ad extension with the account or with campaigns and ad groups in the account. Each entity (account, campaign, or ad group) can be associated with up to 20 structured snippet ad extensions. An expanded text ad will only include one structured snippet (one headline with 3 - 10 values) per impression.

Inherited Elements

The StructuredSnippetAdExtension object derives from the AdExtension object, and inherits the following elements: DevicePreference, ForwardCompatibilityMap, Id, Scheduling, Status, Type, Version. The descriptions below are specific to StructuredSnippetAdExtension, and might not apply to other objects that inherit the same elements from the AdExtension object.

Element	Description	Data Type
DevicePreference	Not supported for this ad extension type.	long
ForwardCompatibilityMap	The list of key and value strings for forward compatibility to avoid otherwise breaking changes when new elements are added in the current API version. There are currently no forward compatibility changes for the AdExtension object. Add: Read-only Update: Read-only	KeyValuePairOfstringstring array
Id	The unique Microsoft Advertising identifier of the ad extension. Add: Read-only Update: Read-only and Required	long
Scheduling	Determines the calendar day and time ranges when the ad extension is eligible to be shown in ads. Add: Optional Update: Optional. If you set this element null, any existing scheduling set for the ad extension will remain unchanged. If you set this to any non-null Schedule object, you are effectively replacing existing scheduling settings for the ad extension. To remove all scheduling set this element to an empty Schedule object.	Schedule
Status	The status of the ad extension. The value will always be Active because the Campaign Management service does not return deleted ad extensions. Add: Read-only Update: Read-only	AdExtensionStatus
Type	The type of the ad extension. This value is StructuredSnippetAdExtension when you retrieve a structured snippet ad extension. Add: Read-only Update: Read-only For more information about ad extension types, see the Ad Extension Data Object Remarks.	string
