Migrate Comparison Shopping Services (CSS) management

With Content API for Shopping, you can use CSS label management to place Shopping ads on Google on behalf of merchants in countries where the CSS program is available.

Content API for Shopping allows CSS domains and CSS groups to organize their associated accounts using labels. CSS domains can list, label, and filter Merchant Center accounts associated with a domain. CSS groups can label and list the CSS domains affiliated with a group.

Merchant API updates and streamlines the management of Comparison Shopping Services (CSS). Functionality from Content API for Shopping migrates into the Accounts and AccountLabels services.

The most significant change is the deprecation of the Csses service. This functionality becomes part of the more powerful Accounts service, creating a single place to manage both CSS and Merchant Center accounts.

Service and method mapping

These services continue in Merchant API, with a few updates. Here's a mapping.
