# Match type changes
Adalysis makes it easy to change keyword match types for hundreds of keywords at once. For example, if your phrase match keywords start to trigger irrelevant search queries due to changes at Google, you can change them to the exact match type in bulk.
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**Select your keywords**
In **Manage** > **Keywords**, filter and select the keywords you want to update. You can filter by match type, campaign, or other criteria to quickly pinpoint the relevant keywords.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
**Open the tool**
In the **Tools** menu, choose **Edit match type.**
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
**Choose your new match type**
Choose a new match type for the keywords.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
**Pause or delete the original keyword**
By default, the original keyword remains unchanged. You can choose to pause or delete it if necessary.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
**Avoid duplicates**
Enable the option **Skip creating the new keyword if it already exists in the campaign.** This prevents duplicate keywords by scanning the campaign and skipping keywords already present in other ad groups.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.adalysis.com/manage/keywords/match-type-changes.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
