# Use Performance Segmentation in rules and Google Ads

> **Who can use this feature:** \
> You need the **Core Pro** plan in your [Channable subscription](/account-billing/manage-your-subscription/channables-pricing-plans.md) to use this feature.

Once you've set up a Google Ads Insights dashboard, you can use performance labels it generates for your products (Stars, Underperformers, Potentials, and Invisible) to group the performance of your products in rules. You can use these labels to optimize your ad strategy based on your top performers.

In this article, you'll learn how to set up and use performance segmentation labels in rules for Google Ads.

### **Before you start**

**You’ll need**

* An active Google Ads Insights dashboard

### **Use Performance Segmentation in rules**

1. In your Channable project, go to **\[your channel/ads generator] > Rules.**
2. Click **+ New rule**.
3. For the IF condition, click the dropdown and select **\[your Insights dashboard]**. A list of available Insights fields will appear. Select *'* segmentation *'*
4. &#x20;An additional field containing ‘Star’ will appear in your IF condition. Click on ‘Star’ to change it to the other available labels.

### **Send segmentation labels to Google Ads**

<summary>Option 1: Add custom labels through a data feed</summary>

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** To send products to the Google Merchant Center via Channable, you’ll need to set up a Google Shopping feed.
{% endhint %}

You can set up campaigns in Google Ads to only include products with a specific label by adding a custom\_label field to your Google Shopping feeds.

1. Go to **Channels > \[your Google Shopping feed] > Mapping**.
2. In the **Channel field** column, find ‘g:custom\_label\_0.’
3. In the corresponding field for ‘g:custom\_label\_0’ (in **Internal field** column), click on the field > **\[your Google Ads Dashboard] > ‘segmentation’**

Now you can set up campaigns in Google Ads with the products with the specific label.

<summary>Option 2: As a custom label through a data feed separately from the main data feed</summary>

If you're already sending products to Google Merchant Center via another tool, you can add custom labels by using [a supplemental feed](https://support.google.com/merchants/answer/7439058?hl=en#zippy=%2Cinstructions).

1. Create a [custom XML feed](broken://spaces/UAGSVlvcNsqEqVUgr0tD/pages/4435faf105cef7124e79a9ca780c204f8fe01933).
2. In **\[your custom XML feed]**, go to the **Mapping** step.
3. Click **+ Add new field**. Click on the field it generates and select **Project fields** > **\[the field containing your product IDs]**. 1. At **Channel field name,** name this field the same name as \[your field containing your product\
   IDs].

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Important:** Make sure your `id` field in the supplemental feeds matches exactly with the `id` field in your primary feeds.
{% endhint %}

4. Click **+ Add new field**. Click on the field it generates and select **\[your Google Ads Insights dashboard]** > **segmentation**. 1. At **Channel field name,** name this field “g:custom\_label\_0”
5. Click **Save & run.**
6. Go to the **Preview** step and [add your feed to Google Merchant Center](/list-advertise/google/how-to-add-products-to-google-merchant-center.md). Now you can set up campaigns in Google Ads with the products with the specific label
