customer_negative_criterion.content_label.type
Field description
Content label type, required for CREATE operations.
A string that uniquely identifies a mobile application to Google Ads API. The format of this string is "{platform}-{platform_native_id}", where platform is "1" for iOS apps and "2" for Android apps, and where platform_native_id is the mobile application identifier native to the corresponding platform. For iOS, this native identifier is the 9 digit string that appears at the end of an App Store URL (for example, "476943146" for "Flood-It! 2" whose App Store link is "http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/flood-it!-2/id476943146"). For Android, this native identifier is the application's package name (for example, "com.labpixies.colordrips" for "Color Drips" given Google Play link "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.labpixies.colordrips"). A well formed app id for Google Ads API would thus be "1-476943146" for iOS and "2-com.labpixies.colordrips" for Android. This field is required and must be set in CREATE operations.
