# Use Insights in rules

> **Who can use this feature:** \
> You need the **Core Pro** plan in your [Channable subscription](https://app.gitbook.com/s/8y3q10FnokmlpzYq3YPS/manage-your-subscription/channables-pricing-plans) to use this feature.

{% hint style="info" %}
The Insights dashboard must be active to be able to use the fields in **Rules** and you need to have an [Insights plan](https://www.channable.com/products/channable-insights) to activate a dashboard.
{% endhint %}

You can use any active Insights Dashboard fields (metrics) in the **Rules** step. Use these Insights metrics to make calculations and create labels based on the performance data from your ads and listings.

The fields available in rules depend on the [type of dashboard](https://helpcenter.channable.com/manage-improve-product-data/insights/channable-insights) (channel-specific) that you set up.

To use Insights fields in the **Rules** step, follow these steps:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Set up an Insights dashboard

* Set up an Insights Dashboard.
* At **Date range setting**, select an option.
* At **Date range**, select an option.
* Once you’ve completed the setup, go to **Dashboard > Insights** to view your data.
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Open Rules for your channel

* Go to **\[your channel] > Rules**.
* To use one of these fields in your rule, select a field in your IF or THEN statement and select your Insights dashboard.
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Example rule using ROAS

For example, create a ROAS-specific rule for your well-performing products:

IF ‘ROAS’ is greater than "500"\
THEN take ‘custom\_label\_1’ and set it to value “ROAS 500%”

{% hint style="info" %}
Note: You may need to [add new project fields](https://app.gitbook.com/s/UAGSVlvcNsqEqVUgr0tD/getting-started/fields-in-channable/map-and-add-fields) to use in your rules. For example, if you don't have custom label fields ‘custom\_label\_1’, you can add them.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Create more rules

Create more rules to add labels for your normal and bad performers.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

### Example: ROAS for Google Ads

Calculate ROAS: ROAS = Revenue / Ad Cost

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Create dashboard

Create a new Insights dashboard for Google Shopping and select 1 month as the rolling date range.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Create ROAS rules

Create ROAS-specific rules for top, average, and worse-performing products in your Google Shopping feed.

\
Example: If “ROAS” is greater than "500", then take “custom\_label\_1” and set it to value “ROAS 500%”. Then continue creating rules for your normal and bad performers.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Apply in Google Ads

Go to your Google Ads account. Your custom labels will be visible in Google Ads and you can now assign a higher “max CPC” to your good performers and a lower “max CPC” to your bad performers, giving you greater control over your ad spend.
