Ad Campaigns

Duplicate an ad set

Duplicates an ad set. The copy is created paused so callers can review before launching. campaignId retargets the copy into another campaign; omitted = the source's own campaign.

Meta: ads and creatives are included by default (deepCopy: true) via Meta's native POST /{adset-id}/copies; the new hierarchy materializes asynchronously and sync discovery is triggered automatically (syncAfter: false to skip).

TikTok: the ad group is read and recreated under the campaign with its targeting, bidding, budget and schedule (start reset to now); deepCopy: true recreates its ads too (default false). startTime, endTime and renameStrategy are ignored and statusOption must be PAUSED or absent. The copy appears on the next discovery sync.

post/v1/ads/ad-sets/{adSetId}/duplicate

Path parameters

adSetIdstring required

Source platform ad set ID

Headers

Idempotency-Keystring

Optional client-generated unique key (e.g. a UUID) that makes retries safe. Same key + same body replays the original response; same key + different body → 422; key still processing → 409. Only 2xx responses are stored, so a request that failed with a 4xx can be retried with a corrected body under the SAME key.

platform'facebook' | 'instagram' required
campaignIdstring

Destination platform campaign id (defaults to the source's campaign)

deepCopyboolean

Copy child ads + creatives
