Introduction

App Extensions allow you to directly promote downloads of your apps on both Google and Microsoft. When this type of extension is served, each one is optimized depending on the operating system and device being used to view it.

How to

1. The first step, as usual, is to log into MarinOne. 
    
2. Navigate to the Ads tab in the top navigation. Instead of clicking into the tab, click the down arrow icon just to the right of the tab and select Ad Extensions. 
    

   
    

3. Once on the Ad Extensions grid, use the Extension Type column to differentiate between App Extensions and other extensions. You can apply a filter to this column if you'd like to look at only App Extensions.
    

   
    

4. Above the grid, you'll see a toggle for either Ad Extension View or Association View.
    

   

    
   1. Ad Extension View will show you each of your extensions a single time, with performance data rolled up across all campaigns and groups that your extension is tied to. 
       
   2. Association View will show a single line-item for each extension + campaign/group association. For example, if your "Schedule a demo" sitelink is used in five different campaigns, you'll see five separate line-items for this sitelink, one for each campaign it's associated with. 
       
5. While we don't yet offer full ad extension management in MarinOne, you can bulk upload extensions. Simply click the Upload button and use the drop-down to select the type of extension you'd like to upload. 
    

   
    

6. For Device details about your ad extensions, navigate to the Devices tab and choose Ad Extension from the Level drop-down. The grid here offers the same toggles for Ad Extension View and Association View that you'll find from the Ad Extensions tab. 
    

   
    

How to manage App Extensions in Bulk

You can use MarinOne bulk upload feature to make various changes to your App Extensions, or create new ones

To start your bulk upload, follow these steps:
 

1. From any of the object-level tabs in MarinOne, click Upload top the top-right above the grid. 
    

2. From the drop-down, select App Extensions. 
    

3. Use the details from the table below to create your bulk sheet to create, edit, link or unlink your App extensions.

Additional notes

When working with App Extensions in MarinOne, please bear in mind the following notes:

• MarinOne does not currently sync in metrics associated with your App Extensions

• URL Builder (and Autocorrect) are not currently compatible with app extensions.

• App extensions can be managed in MarinOne at the campaign- and group-level for Google and at the campaign-level for Microsoft.

• When creating app extensions, the value entered in the URL field will be pushed to Google, but subsequent changes should be done through Google. This is due to the use of structured URL components.

• When creating these objects, app extensions must be linked to at least one campaign

• Similar to the behavior of sitelinks, App Extensions cannot be edited unless they are linked to at least one campaign.
