Google Ads Extensions that are Automated
Google Ads automatic extensions will be eligible to show alongside their manually generated equivalents in the middle of March, according to Google. "For example, if your ad only has two manually-created sitelinks that are eligible to show," Google Ads noted, "Google Ads can now show two dynamic sitelinks as well, giving your ad a total of four sitelinks."
Previously, if you provided manually-created sitelinks, callouts, and structured snippets, dynamic sitelinks, callouts, and dynamic structured snippets were not eligible to show with your ad. That isn't the case now.

Look for "Automatically produced" extensions in the table view of the Extensions page to discover which automated extensions are shown with your advertising. Again, this will go live in mid-March:
