To bulk edit placement asset customized ads
You can bulk edit your PAC ads under the same Ad Set or across Ad Sets having different placements.
While bulk editing your PAC ads, all the different assets will be separated into groups. For example, all the images/videos being used will be grouped under Media. Similarly, the URL, Headline, Text, and Link Descriptions will also be grouped.
Any changes made at a specific group will get copied over across all the selected ad variants.
Click the New Tab icon. Under the Sprinklr Marketing (Ads) tab, click Ads Manager within Analyze.
Navigate to the Ads section from the top dashboard bar.
Apply a Creative Customization filter to filter out your Placement Asset Customization Ads. Learn more about filters in Apply Filters in Ads Manager.
Select the Ads you want to edit by checking the boxes alongside their names and click View & Edit from the bottom Edit panel.
In the View and Edit pane to the right, scroll down to the Creative section and click Edit within Post Details. You can now modify the values for all text fields and placements for your PAC Ad.
Note:
The Objective should be the same for editing the creatives.
If different variations are being used across the selected entities, then you will see the label Mixed State appear against each of the groups. Clicking Edit will highlight the values of the first Ad Variant that was selected.
While bulk editing PAC ads, if a placement is selected that is not included at the Ad Set level, then Sprinklr will automatically remove that placement after review.
For example, if Instagram Feed is selected as the placement at the Ad Set level and you select Facebook Feed as a placement at the Ad level, then after the Ad is sent for publishing, Sprinklr will automatically remove the combination for Facebook Feed.Controlling custom fields cannot be edited in bulk.
Once you have made the changes, click Review Changes in the bottom right corner.
On the Review Changes window, click Apply Changes.
