Campaign Stuck on “Creating” Status
In some cases, campaigns may remain stuck on a “Creating” status and do not progress to active delivery. This is typically caused by a sync issue between Properti and Meta Ads Manager.
Problem
You may notice:
- Campaign status shows “Creating” for an extended period
- Campaign does not go live
- Campaign appears turned off in Ads Manager
- No delivery or impressions are recorded
Common Causes
- Sync delay between Properti and Meta Ads Manager
- Campaign toggle mismatch (off in Ads Manager, on in Properti)
- Initial campaign creation did not fully complete
- Platform delay during high processing periods
Solution Steps
Step 1: Check Ads Manager
- Log in to your Meta Ads Manager
- Locate the affected campaign
- Confirm whether the campaign is switched ON
Step 2: Turn Campaign ON in Ads Manager
- If the campaign is OFF:
- Toggle it ON manually
- Wait a few minutes and refresh Properti
Step 3: Refresh Campaign Status in Properti
- Return to Properti
- Refresh the campaign dashboard
- Check if status updates from “Creating” to Active
Step 4: Duplicate Campaign (If Issue Persists)
- Duplicate the campaign in Properti
- Archive the original version
- Ensure all settings are correct before launching
Troubleshooting Tips
- Allow a few minutes for sync after making changes in Ads Manager
- Avoid rapidly toggling campaigns on/off
- Double-check ad account permissions and connectivity
- Ensure there are no rejected ads within the campaign
