On-demand checks collect current search results right away. They are useful after a campaign change, before a meeting or when you want to confirm something you saw.
- Open Keywords in the sidebar.
- To check every active keyword across your configured locations, devices and sources, select Run a Check.
- To check a single keyword, use the check button on its row. Choose one device and operating system in the filters first.
- Stay on the page to follow progress, or leave. Checks continue in the background.
On-demand checks use your realtime allowance. One request can include up to 60 keyword, location, device and source combinations. Reviewing results you already have never uses checks.
If some checks fail, earlier results are kept. Open Activities to see which checks did not finish, then try again later.
No ads in a check is a valid result: it means no ads were observed for that search, place, device and time. Ads can vary from one search to the next.
