Elements

The BidMultiplier object has the following elements: Multiplier.

Element Description Data Type
Multiplier The percentage amount that you want to adjust the bid for the corresponding criterion. If the campaign uses MaxClicks, MaxConversions, TargetCpa, or TargetRoas bid strategy types, then the multiplier will inform rather than directly modify or override the automated bid.

For most criterion types the valid bid multiplier range is -90 through 900. For exceptions, see DeviceCriterion Usage and LocationIntentCriterion Usage below.

Although this element supports a double data type, you should use whole integer values i.e., -90 through 900, for parity with the web application.
