Set a campaign's DEVICE bid adjustment (e.g. -30 = bid 30% less on that device) or exclude a device entirely (-100). Review-tier.

Check getSegmentPerformance first.

Scope: write token required · money-moving. Every write is dry-run validated, then classified by the safe-apply policy — auto-applied when bounded and low-risk, otherwise queued for approval.
