Ad Status Configuration Update

What’s changing

We’re updating how ad status (Active / Paused) is configured in Launch Sheets to make workflows clearer and more consistent.

Why this matters

This change helps:

  • Remove confusion between workflow status and ad delivery status

  • Keep Launch Sheets cleaner and easier to manage

  • Prepare the platform for upcoming features

What’s new

🔘 Initial Status is now set at the Launch Sheet level

Instead of selecting Active or Paused per ad-row:

  • You’ll now use a simple On / Off toggle in your Launch Sheet settings

On → Ads will be created Active
Off → Ads will be created Paused

Status column is now workflow-only

(See here)
The Status column will now reflect only internal progress:

  • Draft

  • Publish edits

  • Launched

  • Error

👉 It no longer controls ad delivery

⚙️ Delivery status is centralized

  • Ad delivery (Active / Paused) is now controlled only via Initial Status

  • It is no longer editable per row

Where to find it

Go to:

Launch Sheet → Settings → Default Values → Initial Status

Important for existing Launch Sheets

If your Launch Sheet previously used row-level status:

  • Row-level status will be deprecated

  • New ads will default to Off (Paused)

  • Existing ads will not be affected

What this affects

  • ✅ Applies only to new ads

  • ❌ Does NOT affect ads already created

What you need to do

→ No action is required

However, you may want to:

  • Review your Initial Status setting

  • Adjust it before creating new ads if needed
