About the updated Ads Manager

We combined Ads Manager and Power Editor into one interface to make it easier for advertisers to create, manage and report on their ads. With this interface, you may notice some useful features.

You can use this article as a guide to help you understand and take advantage of the features.

In this article:

• Create ads
• Edit ads
• Create and find reports

Create ads

When creating ads from scratch, you can choose from two workflows to create and manage your ads:

1. Guided creation: This option walks you through the steps to create a campaign to completion.
   → Choose this workflow if you are new to Facebook ads and want step-by-step instruction.
2. Quick creation: This option allows your to set up the campaign and then create ad sets and ads later.
   → Choose this workflow if you're an advertiser with more advanced skills and familiar with the previous Power Editor workflow.

Note: The workflow you initially choose will become the default choice each time you click the Create Ad button. You can change this default or switch between the two workflows at any time by clicking the Switch button at the top of the creation flow.

Edit ads

In the updated Ads Manager, you have the option to edit ads and publish the changes immediately or edit ads and save the changes to publish later.

To make edits and publish immediately, select the campaigns, ad sets and ads that you want to edit and click Edit or the edit icon  to open the side panel. Once you've made your edits, click Publish, and your edits are immediately applied to your ads.

To make edits and publish these edits later, you will take the same steps as above, but you will select Close instead of Publish. To publish these edits later, go to Review and Publish to see pending edits and confirm these changes. Learn more about editing ads.

Create and find reports

In the new interface, your reports are located in Ads Reporting within the Ads Manager main menu. To create reports, you'll also need to navigate to Ads Reporting.

To create reports:

1. Click Ads Reporting from the main menu
2. Click Create Report
3. In the drop-down menu above the reporting table, select Account, Campaign, Ad Set or Ad depending on the information that you want to report on
4. In the reporting table, select the campaigns, ad sets or ads that you want to report on and then click Apply
   
5. To save your report, click Save Changes, name the report, and click Save

Edit ads in the updated Ads Manager

We're bringing together Ads Manager and Power Editor together into one platform to make it easier for advertisers to manage their ads. When editing your campaigns, ad sets or ads, you have the option to make edits immediately or save changes and publish these changes later.

In this article:

• Edit and publish your campaigns, ad sets and ads immediately
• Make edits and publish later
• Make changes in the reporting table

Edit campaigns, ad sets and ads immediately

1. To make edits and publish the edits immediately, select the campaigns, ad sets or ads that you want to edit and click Edit or the edit icon  to open the side panel.

2. Once you've made your edits, click Publish. That's it! Your edits are immediately applied to your ads.

Make edits and publish later

To make edits and publish the changes later, you will take the same steps as above, but you will select Close instead of Publish.

1. Select the campaigns, ad sets or ads that you want to edit and click Edit or the edit icon  to open the side panel.

2. Once you've made your changes, you can click Close and your edits will be saved. This way your ads will be saved in draft mode, and you'll can review and publish the changes later.

3. To publish previously saved edits, go to Review and Publish where you can see pending edits and confirm these changes.

Make changes in the reporting table

You can also make certain edits to your ads directly in the reporting table. In the table, you can edit your ad's budget and schedule and these changes will be applied immediately. You will not need to review and approve these changes.

Important note: Other pending edits that you've saved on the same item will be published as well. So, if you made changes to a campaign earlier and saved those changes and then edited the same campaign in the reporting table, both the edits to the reporting table and the saved edits for the same campaign will be published immediately.

Here are a few examples to explain how this would work:

• Let's say you have a campaign called Campaign A, and you change the name of the campaign in the editing pane and save this change. You later use the reporting table to make an edit to the budget of that same Campaign A. When you click Publish, both the campaign name change and the budget change will be published immediately.
• With the same Campaign A, you also have multiple ad sets: Ad Set X, Ad Set Y and Ad Set Z. You previously edited the audience for Ad Set X and saved the change. When you later publish the changes to Campaign A in the reporting table, your changes to AD Set X will not be published.

We will ask you if you want to continue and publish all your edits. Click Publish to apply the edits made in the reporting table and the edits you've previously saved.
