Facebook Dynamic Creatives

Introduction

Similar to RSAs on the search side, Dynamic Creatives allow you to take multiple media (such as images, videos, etc.) and multiple ad components (such as images, videos, text, audio, and CTAs), then dynamically mix and match them to improve your ad performance. Dynamic Creatives allow you to create personalized creative variations for each person who views your ad.

  6. At the top of the upload pane, select Single Sheet from the drop-down.
  7. In your bulk sheet, the Dynamic Creative column can be used to create new dynamic creatives. When using this column, input the value Yes for dynamic creatives or the value No for other ads that are not dynamic creatives. If this column is left blank, it will behave the same as if the value was set to No
  8. When you're ready to save your changes, click Submit to process your bulk sheet. You can use the Activity Log to check the status of your upload. That's all there is to it!

How to Edit Existing Dynamic Creatives

Editing of Dynamic Creatives is currently only available via bulk sheet.

You can update the following fields:

  • Images
  • Message
  • Headline
  • Description
  • Call To Action
  • Link URL

And you can update the following creative formats:

  • Single Image
  • Carousel Image
  • Single Video
  • Automatic Format

Important Notes

  • Facebook allows one ad in an ad set to have dynamic creatives enabled and does not allow for placement optimization. 
  • The ad set must be empty prior to creating a dynamic creative ad. If you attempt to turn on dynamic creatives for an ad set with existing ads, you will see an error.
