Graph API Version

Campaign

A campaign is the highest level organizational structure within an ad account and should represent a single objective for an advertiser, for example, to drive page post engagement. Setting objective of the campaign will enforce validation on any ads added to the campaign to ensure they also have the correct objective.

Facebook will no longer be able to aggregate non-inline conversion metric values across iOS 14.5 and non-iOS 14.5 campaigns due to differences in attribution logic. Querying across iOS 14.5 and non-iOS 14.5 campaigns will result in no data getting returned for non-inline conversion metrics such as app installs and purchases. Inline event metrics like impressions, link clicks, and video views, however, can still be aggregated. Please visit our changelog for more information.

Ad campaigns that target iOS 14.5 must set the new is_skadnetwork_attribution field to true.

The date_preset = lifetime parameter is disabled in Graph API v10.0 and replaced with date_preset = maximum, which returns a maximum of 37 months of data. For v9.0 and below, date_preset = maximum will be enabled on May 25, 2021, and any lifetime calls will default to maximum and return only 37 months of data.

Limits

New Required Field for All Campaigns

All businesses using the Marketing API must identify whether or not new and edited campaigns belong to a Special Ad Category. Current available categories are: housing, employment, credit, or issues, elections, and politics. Businesses whose ads do not belong to a Special Ad Category must indicate NONE or send an empty array in the special_ad_categories field.

Businesses running housing, employment, or credit ads must comply with targeting and audience restrictions. Targeting for ads about social issues, elections or politics are not affected by the special_ad_categories label.

As of Marketing API 7.0, the special_ad_category parameter on the POST /act_<ad_account_id>/campaigns endpoint has been deprecated and replaced with a new special_ad_categories parameter. The new special_ad_categories parameter is required and accepts an array.

If you use the special_ad_category parameter, it will still return a string, but you should use GET /{campaign-id}?fields=special_ad_categories to get an array back. Refer to Special Ad Category for additional information.

Reading

A campaign is a grouping of ad sets which are organized by the same business objective. Each campaign has an objective that must be valid across the ad sets within that campaign.

After your ads begin delivering, you can query stats for ad campaigns. The statistics returned will be unique stats, deduped across the ad sets. You can also get reports and statistics for all ad sets and ads in an campaign simultaneously.

Parameters

ParameterDescription
adlabels
list<Object>

Ad Labels associated with this campaign

bid_strategy
enum{LOWEST_COST_WITHOUT_CAP, LOWEST_COST_WITH_BID_CAP, COST_CAP, LOWEST_COST_WITH_MIN_ROAS}

Choose bid strategy for this campaign to suit your specific business goals. Each strategy has tradeoffs and may be available for certain optimization_goals:
LOWEST_COST_WITHOUT_CAP: Designed to get the most results for your budget based on your ad set optimization_goal without limiting your bid amount. This is the best strategy if you care most about cost efficiency. However with this strategy it may be harder to get stable average costs as you spend. This strategy is also known as automatic bidding. Learn more in Ads Help Center, About bid strategies: Lowest cost.
LOWEST_COST_WITH_BID_CAP: Designed to get the most results for your budget based on your ad set optimization_goal while limiting actual bid to your specified amount. With a bid cap you have more control over your cost per actual optimization event. However if you set a limit which is too low you may get less ads delivery. If you select this, you must provide a bid cap in the bid_amount field for each ad set in this ad campaign. Note: during creation this is the default bid strategy if you don't specify. This strategy is also known as manual maximum-cost bidding. Learn more in Ads Help Center, About bid strategies: Lowest cost.

Notes:

  • If you do not enable campaign budget optimization, you should set bid_strategy at ad set level.
  • TARGET_COST bidding strategy has been deprecated with Marketing API v9.

bid_strategy
enum{LOWEST_COST_WITHOUT_CAP, LOWEST_COST_WITH_BID_CAP, COST_CAP, LOWEST_COST_WITH_MIN_ROAS}

Choose bid strategy for this campaign to suit your specific business goals. Each strategy has tradeoffs and may be available for certain optimization_goals:
LOWEST_COST_WITHOUT_CAP: Designed to get the most results for your budget based on your ad set optimization_goal without limiting your bid amount. This is the best strategy if you care most about cost efficiency. However with this strategy it may be harder to get stable average costs as you spend. This strategy is also known as automatic bidding. Learn more in Ads Help Center, About bid strategies: Lowest cost.
LOWEST_COST_WITH_BID_CAP: Designed to get the most results for your budget based on your ad set optimization_goal while limiting actual bid to your specified amount. With a bid cap you have more control over your cost per actual optimization event. However if you set a limit which is too low you may get less ads delivery. If you select this, you must provide a bid cap in the bid_amount field for each ad set in this ad campaign. Note: during creation this is the default bid strategy if you don't specify. This strategy is also known as manual maximum-cost bidding. Learn more in Ads Help Center, About bid strategies: Lowest cost.
COST_CAP: Designed to get the most results for your budget based on your ad set optimization_goal while limiting actual average cost per optimization event to a specified amount. Get specified cost cap in the bid_amount field for each ad set in this ad campaign. Learn more in Ads Help Center, About bid strategies: Cost Cap.

Notes:

  • If you do not enable campaign budget optimization, you should set bid_strategy at ad set level.
  • TARGET_COST bidding strategy has been deprecated with Marketing API v9.

budget_rebalance_flag
boolean

Whether to automatically rebalance budgets daily for all the adsets under this campaign.

execution_options
list<enum{validate_only, include_recommendations}>
Default value: Set

An execution setting
validate_only: when this option is specified, the API call will not perform the mutation but will run through the validation rules against values of each field.
include_recommendations: this option cannot be used by itself. When this option is used, recommendations for ad object's configuration will be included. A separate section recommendations will be included in the response, but only if recommendations for this specification exist.
If the call passes validation or review, response will be {"success": true}. If the call does not pass, an error will be returned with more details. These options can be used to improve any UI to display errors to the user much sooner, e.g. as soon as a new value is typed into any field corresponding to this ad object, rather than at the upload/save stage, or after review.

Objectives and Tracking Specs

Tracking specs are applied by default based on the objective specified, please see the full list of defaults by objective here.

There are two important scenarios to take into account:

  • Tracking pixels are not applied by default, and you must specify it explicitly when your objective is CONVERSIONS.
  • Mobile app ads will no longer track installs or app events by default. You must explicitly specify to track installs or app events for mobile app ads otherwise your ad will not track.

To specify to track an install or app event, set the following in your ad:

tracking_specs=[{'action.type':['mobile_app_install'],'application':[{your_app_id}]},{'action.type':['app_custom_event'],'application':[{your_app_id}]}]

Certain objectives require the promoted_object to be set in ad sets. See Promoted Object for more information.

Objective, Optimization Goal and attribution_spec

Use click-through and view-through attribution windows for ad set to track conversions then use for ads delivery optimization. This is different from the attribution window you use for ads reporting. With attribution_spec, select a combination of click-through or view-through windows of 1 day or 7 days. The combinations you can use depend on your ad set's optimization_goal and campaign's objective.

Recommended Default attribution_spec

You may not have provided attribution_spec when you created ads sets optimized for Value Optimization. This is an optimization available for conversions, app installs, and product catalog sales objectives. In the past, we defaulted to a 1-day click through attribution window.

Outcome-Driven Ads Experiences Objective Validation

Objective values

The following are newer objectives:

  • OUTCOME_APP_PROMOTION
  • OUTCOME_AWARENESS
  • OUTCOME_ENGAGEMENT
  • OUTCOME_LEADS
  • OUTCOME_SALES
  • OUTCOME_TRAFFIC

These newer objectives will eventually replace the original objectives APP_INSTALLS, BRAND_AWARENESS, CONVERSIONS, EVENT_RESPONSES, LEAD_GENERATION, LINK_CLICKS, LOCAL_AWARENESS, MESSAGES, OFFER_CLAIMS, PAGE_LIKES, POST_ENGAGEMENT, PRODUCT_CATALOG_SALES, REACH, STORE_VISITS, VIDEO_VIEWS. We will continue supporting these original objectives throughout 2022.

Limitations

  • Trying to duplicate existing objective campaigns to use the new objective values (OUTCOME_APP_PROMOTION, OUTCOME_AWARENESS, OUTCOME_ENGAGEMENT, OUTCOME_LEADS, OUTCOME_SALES, OUTCOME_TRAFFIC) may throw an error.
