Google Ads Editor offers several ways to edit your keywords. Choose one of the methods below to update your keywords, along with their maximum cost-per-click (CPC) bids, URLs, matching options, and status.
Note: Keyword IDs are impacted by your keyword edits. Actions like editing a keyword (such as adding or removing a Final URL) or removing and reuploading a keyword will retain the same ID and historical activity stats as long as the keyword's match type and text or string remains the same. However, both of these actions will send your keywords back for review.
