Overview for Ads Composer Roles & Permissions
Note that Ads Composer has both positive and negative permissions. It is therefore not recommended to give users all permissions as standard.
Positive Permissions - These allow the user to perform additional actions
Negative Permissions - These restrict what the user is allowed to do
Type | Permission | Description |
Positive | View | Allows users to view and use the Ads Composer. |
Negative | Dark Post Publish Only | Allows users to create Dark Post Ads and restrict them from publishing organic posts. |
Positive | Dark Post Unique Story Id Option | Allows users to create the same or different post IDs for the same ad with multiple targeting. For example, If a campaign is created with 4 target audiences and 1 creative (4 Ad Sets, 1 Ad in each Ad set), the user can post Ad with the same ID or a different one. The different IDs will help in easy GA, DCM configuration and analysis. |
Negative | Approved Draft Only | Allows users to select only those creatives that have been approved and use them while composing ads. |
Positive | Initiate Workflow Process | Allows users to initiate a workflow process for the ad; see here for more details. |
Note:
Ads Composer can only be used to create Ads for Ad Accounts that a user has access to with either of the permissions "All Permissions" or "Publish Ads". These can be managed via the Account Settings page.
Global Admins automatically have All Permissions access to all accounts.
You must also have the Media Uploader: All permission if you wish to create ads.
