Last updated: 6 months ago

You can use the Off/On toggle to activate or pause your campaigns, ad sets, or ads in Campaign Manager.  

To activate or pause your campaigns, ad sets, or ads: 

  1. Go to your ad account in Campaign Manager.

  2. Click Advertise on the left menu.

  3. Click the Campaigns, Ad sets, or Ads tab and locate the entity that needs to be paused or activated. 

  4. Click the Off/On toggle to turn the campaign, ad set, or ad on or off.

The Off/On toggle can’t be used in some situations: 

  • If your campaign has reached its lifetime budget or end date, you’ll need to edit the campaign and change the budget or schedule before you reactivate it.  
  • If your ad set has reached its lifetime budget or end date, you’ll need to reactivate the ad set to edit the budget or schedule.  
  • If you have a draft ad set or ad, you’ll need to launch the ad set or ad before you can activate or pause it.  
  • If your campaign, ad set, or ad was deleted, you can’t activate or pause it.
