Create a campaign

Creates an ad campaign in the billing account. The creatives you reference must already exist as Open Cloud image assets that you have permission to use; they are validated and saved to your account's reusable creatives when the campaign is created. On success the campaign is returned with deliveryStatus IN_REVIEW, meaning it is queued for ad-policy review and not yet serving — poll the campaign (or campaigns:batchGetStatus) until this changes. budget.amountMicros is the budget in micro-USD as a decimal string (e.g. "5000000" = $5.00). It must be at least the minimum campaign budget; an amount below the minimum returns 400 with the required minimum stated in the error message. schedule.durationInDays must not exceed 3650 (~10 years). The x-idempotency-key header is required and must be a UUID: retrying the same key with an identical body within 24 hours returns the original campaign (200), while reusing a key with a different body returns 409.
