For asset-based location extensions, it looks like it's preferred to use a 
location sync asset set, which automatically generates the corresponding assets.
It looks like it is preferred to deal only in asset sets:
"First, create a location sync asset set and attach it to the customer. Then, 
if you need to select a subset of the location assets in the asset set for a 
campaign or ad group, create a location group asset set and attach it to the 
campaign or ad group."

rwh: It is not preferred it is required.

It is not clear to me whether you have the option to directly generate and 
associate single assets.
The asset set association does not specify type and is explained in the 
document.
The asset association does have a specific type, but there does not look like 
there is one that corresponds to a location.

rwh: This is a question for our support alias. I can answer question regarding 
the auto-migration, but API usage questions should be in a separate request.

For asset-based image extensions, it looks like there are no asset sets for 
them based on the allowed types in the asset set:
https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/reference/rpc/v13/AssetSetTypeEnum.AssetSetType

so I should create individual assets for each image extension and associate it 
to the customer/campaign/adgroup with an association 
(customer_asset/campaign_asset/ad_group_asset).

rwh: https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/samples/upload-image-asset 
shows how to upload an image asset. Once uploaded if you are using it as a 
field type AD_IMAGE you can link it to CampaignAsset
or AdGroupAsset.

Question - For image extensions that are migrated to asset-based extensions, 
what is the asset association type?
The list here in the documentation has something clearly labeled for other 
extension types:
https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/reference/rpc/v13/AssetFieldTypeEnum.AssetFieldType

For example: "The asset is linked for use as a Sitelink extension."
I venture to guess that the only one that makes sense is "AD_IMAGE", but I 
would like confirmation since it isn't in the document that Bob sent and it 
says:

"The asset is linked for use to select an ad image." rather than anything about 
extensions.

For what it's worth, I think it'd be helpful if more documentation was linked 
in the blog post announcing the auto-migration.
I think guides and examples on how to migrate each of the extension types 
manually and retrieve the data back would be helpful.

rwh: We have documentation pending that will be available prior to the start of 
the auto-migration. The field type will most likely be AD_IMAGE as you state.

If the source was used as field type:
HEADLINE

LONG_HEADLINE

DESCRIPTION

MANDATORY_AD_TEXT

CALL_TO_ACTION_SELECTION

It will be moved within the same type of ad originally used.
