# remove_keywords_from_campaign

Remove Google Ads keyword groups and/or negative keyword list attachments from a campaign's GOOGLE_ADS channel.

Destructive [search](https://metadata.io/developers/tools/#cat-search)

## What it does

## Arguments

| Argument | Type |   | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| `campaign_id` | integer | required | The unique identifier of the campaign |
| `channel_id` | integer |   | Optional fast-path: numeric id of the GOOGLE_ADS channel on this campaign. When provided, the tool skips the full-campaign GET and fetches only this channel's keyword list. Use it when you already have the id from a recent campaign read; omit it and the tool resolves the channel by type. |
| `channel_keywords` | object |   | Map of channel type to list of positive keyword group names to remove. Only GOOGLE_ADS is supported. Example: {"GOOGLE_ADS": ["CRM Keywords"]} |
| `channel_negative_keyword_lists` | object |   | Map of channel type to list of negative keyword list names to detach from the channel. Only GOOGLE_ADS is supported. Example: {"GOOGLE_ADS": ["Competitor Brands"]} |
