CalloutAdExtension Data Object - Campaign Management

Defines an object that specifies additional text about your business, products, or services to include in a text ad.

You can associate an app ad extension with the account or with campaigns and ad groups in the account. You must associate between 2 and 20 callout ad extensions per entity (account, campaign, or ad group). If you associate one or fewer callout extensions with your account, campaign, or ad group, then no callout text will serve with your ad. An ad may include between 2 to 4 callouts per impression.

Ad extensions that are associated at the ad group level will override ad extensions of the same type that are associated at the campaign level. For example if you have 2 callout extensions set for Campaign A, zero callout extensions associated with Ad Group AA, and one callout extension associated with Ad Group AB, then only Ad Group AA is eligible to have its text ads decorated with callouts.

Element	Description	Data Type
DevicePreference	Not supported for this ad extension type.	long
