# Labels for Google Text Ads

Google Ads supports Labels to organize your Campaigns, Ad groups, Ads, and keywords into groups. They are also often used for reporting and analyses. With Channable, you can link Labels to your Ads.

### How to link labels to Text Ads

First, Label(s) needs to be created on account level. Before linking a Label to your Text Ads, you need to **manually** create a new Label in your Google Ads account. For more information regarding the creation of Labels, please read [this Google Ads Help article](https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/7486653?hl=en).

{% hint style="warning" %}
If you do not create a Label in your Google Ads account prior to linking it, Channable will show a "Label does not exist" error in the "Preview".
{% endhint %}

Once you have created a Label, Channable is able to link this **existing** Label to your Text Ads. This is done in the Ad templates of your dynamic Ad groups generator.

This means you can link Labels for each Ad template with a static value or a dynamic field. The static value or the value in the dynamic field should **exactly** match the name of the Labels you have created in your Google Ads account.

For example: You have created a Label named “High Performance” in Google Ads. As per the screenshot above, you are using the dynamic field `performance` to link the Label. Therefore, the value in `performance` should be “High Performance”. However, you could also directly type "High Performance" as a static value.

### How to unlink labels from Text Ads

If you wish to unlink Label(s) from your Text Ads, simply remove the Label fields or values from the Ad templates. It is also possible to set a rule to empty the dynamic field(s) used.

Furthermore, if a Label was already attached to an Ad and you linked this Label in Channable, this means that Channable will manage this Label for that Ad from then onwards. In other words, Channable will also be able to unlink this Label from an Ad if you unlink it in Channable.

{% hint style="info" %}
Deactivating the Ad generator and/or Ad group generator won’t unlink the Labels from the Text Ads in Google.
{% endhint %}

### What are the limits?

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Channable will never create new Labels

It can only **link to existing** Labels in your Google Ads account.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Channable will never update linked Labels

This means that renaming Labels is not supported directly in Channable. To rename a Label:

* First rename the Label in your Google Ads account.
* Then make sure the value for this linked Label in Channable matches the new name.

If the values do not match, you will see an error in "Preview" because Channable can't find the Label anymore.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Channable will never remove Labels on account level

You can **unlink** Labels from Ad templates through Channable but these Labels **won't be deleted** from your Google Ads account.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Supported objects

At the moment, Channable supports linking Labels to Text Ads only. This cannot be done for other objects such as Campaigns or Ad groups.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
