Link Campaign Manager 360 and Ads Creative Studio

If you're creating display or video ads for an advertiser who uses Campaign Manager 360, set up an account link so that you can export projects directly to their Campaign Manager 360 advertiser.

How it works

After you set up an account link, you can export creative projects to a Campaign Manager 360 advertiser. When you export display projects, they'll be imported as creatives in the advertiser's creative list. Video projects will be imported as creative projects in Campaign Manager 360.

Campaign Manager 360 users can't change the creative content, template, or variants of the exported creative in Campaign Manager 360. But they can change the creative name, targeting rules, and landing pages. Any changes made to the creative in Campaign Manager 360 will not affect the creative project in Ads Creative Studio.

Keep in mind that:

  • Linking accounts will not give the Ads Creative Studio account users access to view or edit the Campaign Manager 360 advertiser. Likewise, users of the linked Campaign Manager 360 advertiser will not be able to add, edit, or delete any projects in Ads Creative Studio.
  • Each time you export a project from Ads Creative Studio, it's added as a new project in the linked account. If you change a project after you export it, export it again. Then let your Campaign Manager 360 contact know so they can swap in the updated project in their campaigns.
