Hi Sreelakshmi, thank you very much for your quick answer, especially for linking to the code sample!
My problem is, that there is also a limit on NegativeCampaignCriterion of only 10k. https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/6372658?hl=en is stating "10,000 negative keywords per campaign", I assume that this limit holds also for negative placements. Am I right with this assumption, or should the number of excluded placements per campaign be unlimited? If I am right, is there any way to exclude more than 10k entities per campaign while having more than 20 campaigns in the account? Thank you ever so much for your help!
