Manage Multiple Google Ads Ad Groups in GoHighLevel
If you are working in both ClickUp and GoHighLevel, keeping Google Ads campaigns organized is essential for accurate reporting and optimization. This guide explains, step by step, how to manage and assign multiple ad groups inside a single Google Ads campaign from within GoHighLevel.
The process is based on the native Google Ads integration. You will see how to connect a campaign, access the correct ad groups list, and properly assign ad groups back to your GoHighLevel automations.
Prerequisites for Using GoHighLevel with Google Ads
Before you can work with multiple ad groups, make sure the following requirements are met inside GoHighLevel:
- Your Google Ads account is active and has at least one search or performance campaign created.
- You have connected your Google Ads account to GoHighLevel using the built‑in integration in the settings area.
- You know which existing Google Ads campaign you want to manage from GoHighLevel.
Once these prerequisites are complete, you can begin assigning and managing ad groups directly from your GoHighLevel workspace.
Accessing Google Ads Campaigns in GoHighLevel
To work with multiple ad groups, you must first reach the Google Ads campaign connection screen within GoHighLevel.
-
Log in to your GoHighLevel account with appropriate permissions.
-
Navigate to the section where your Google Ads integration is available (this may be under Marketing or Ads, depending on your account configuration).
-
Select the connected Google Ads account that contains the campaign you want to manage.
-
Open the specific Google Ads campaign you wish to work on so you can see the available ad groups.

Understanding Multiple Ad Groups in a Single Campaign
Google Ads allows you to place multiple ad groups inside a single campaign. When you manage such a campaign from GoHighLevel, you must choose which ad group (or ad groups, depending on the feature) should be associated with your automations or tracking.
Each ad group may have its own:
- Keywords or targeting segments
- Ad copy variations
- Bids or bid strategies
- Audience or geography refinements
The purpose of working with multiple ad groups via GoHighLevel is to keep this structure organized while still tying it into your funnels, forms, and reporting.
How to Select a Google Ads Campaign in GoHighLevel
When you first configure your Google Ads connection, GoHighLevel will present you with a list of campaigns from the linked Google Ads account.
-
In the Google Ads integration screen inside GoHighLevel, locate the dropdown or list of available campaigns.
-
Click on the campaign that contains several ad groups. The system will load that campaign’s related information.
-
Confirm that you have selected the correct campaign by checking the campaign name and core settings, such as objective or type.
After the correct campaign is selected, GoHighLevel will allow you to see and work with the ad groups that belong to that campaign.
Viewing Multiple Ad Groups from GoHighLevel
Once your preferred campaign is open in GoHighLevel, you can access the list of ad groups associated with it.
-
Locate the area labeled with ad groups or similar terminology on the campaign configuration screen.
-
Click the dropdown or list to reveal all ad groups connected to that Google Ads campaign.
-
Review the ad group names so you can identify which ones should be connected to your GoHighLevel workflows or tracking events.
At this point you are only viewing the ad groups; assignment or changes will happen in the next step.
Assigning Ad Groups Inside GoHighLevel
The core task is to assign one or more ad groups from the selected Google Ads campaign to the specific feature you are configuring within GoHighLevel, such as form tracking or a funnel step.
-
In the ad group selection area, choose the ad group you want to assign. You may see a dropdown, a radio button list, or checkbox options depending on the feature you are configuring.
-
If the feature supports only a single ad group, select the primary ad group that best aligns with the traffic or conversions you want to track.
-
If multiple selections are allowed, check or select all relevant ad groups so their performance can be associated with that GoHighLevel asset.
-
Confirm your choice by clicking Save, Apply, or the equivalent button inside the GoHighLevel interface.
After saving, the chosen ad group or ad groups will be tied to the campaign element you set up in GoHighLevel.
Best Practices for Ad Group Selection in GoHighLevel
When mapping ad groups from Google Ads to your GoHighLevel assets, keep these best practices in mind:
- Choose ad groups that match the intent of the funnel or form you are tracking.
- Avoid mixing unrelated ad groups into a single GoHighLevel asset; this keeps reporting clean.
- Review performance inside Google Ads regularly and update assignments if a different ad group becomes more relevant.
Troubleshooting Ad Group Visibility in GoHighLevel
If you do not see the ad groups you expect inside GoHighLevel, check the following:
- The Google Ads account is correctly connected and authorized.
- The selected campaign is active and contains the ad groups you created in Google Ads.
- You have refreshed or reloaded the campaign list inside GoHighLevel after adding new ad groups in Google Ads.

Maintaining Your Google Ads Structure Through GoHighLevel
After initial setup, continue to maintain your structure:
- Monitor performance metrics in Google Ads and adjust bids or creatives at the ad group level.
- Return to the GoHighLevel integration panel if you add or remove ad groups so your assignments remain accurate.
- Periodically verify that campaign and ad group mappings still align with your funnels, pipelines, and reporting needs.
By following these steps, you can confidently manage multiple Google Ads ad groups from within GoHighLevel while keeping your marketing data structured, trackable, and easy to interpret across all your connected tools.
