Assign classification values to account components from campaign management views
You can assign and remove classification values for the following search entities from the campaign management views: campaign, ad group, keyword, ad, placement, unit-level product group, and dynamic search target. If necessary, you can create classifications and classification values during the assignment process. Each label classification can have up to 2000 values.
Each entity can have one label value per classification. For example, Shoes_Campaign can have a Color value of “red” and a Geo value of “Los Angeles,” but it can’t have multiple values for Color or Geo.
Label values are inherited by child entities, so don’t enter values for child entities unless you want to override the inherited values.
