Facebook’s new rules for political & issue ads start today

Creative reporting lets advertisers compare which ad creative elements deliver the best results across campaigns.

Facebook is expanding its reporting options since merging its Ads Manager and Power Editor last September.

Advertisers will soon have access to an updated Ads Reporting platform that includes a drag-and-drop feature to customize the report around the metrics they want front and center.

“This new Ads Reporting experience will enable you to analyze dimensions such as age, gender, placement and more to better understand how your ad performed,” says Facebook.

The newly updated reports will include a side panel that lets advertisers edit ads on the same screen as the campaign page so that they do not have to go back and forth between tables in the Ads Manager and editing panel — making it possible to duplicate or delete campaigns, ad sets and ads.
