Creating

You can't perform this operation on this endpoint.

Updating

In v3.1 we introduce the new concept of task-based permissions to substitute for the current role-based permission. This affects access to ad accounts managed by Business Manager API and Pages. Role-based access to ad accounts and Pages is still available but will be deprecated in the future. This impacts the following roles and provides the equivalent tasks for ad accounts:
  • Role: ADMIN, Tasks: ['MANAGE', 'ADVERTISE', 'ANALYZE' - Manage all aspects of ad campaigns, reporting, billing and ad account permissions.
  • Role: GENERAL_USER, Tasks: ['ADVERTISE', 'ANALYZE'] - Create ads using the funding source associated with the ad account. Run reports.
  • Role: GENERAL_USER, Tasks: ['ANALYZE'] - Run reports.
This replaces the following roles in Business Manager API with these tasks:
  • Role: MANAGER, Tasks: ['MANAGE', 'CREATE_CONTENT', 'MODERATE', 'ADVERTISE', 'ANALYZE', 'DRAFT']
  • Role: CONTENT_CREATOR, Tasks: ['CREATE_CONTENT', 'MODERATE', 'ADVERTISE', 'ANALYZE', 'DRAFT']
  • Role: MODERATOR, Tasks: ['MODERATE', 'ADVERTISE', 'ANALYZE', 'DRAFT']
  • Role: ADVERTISER, Tasks: ['ADVERTISE', 'ANALYZE', 'DRAFT']
  • Role: INSIGHTS_ANALYST, Tasks: ['ANALYZE', 'DRAFT']
  • Role: CREATIVE_HUB_MOCKUPS_MANAGER, Tasks: ['DRAFT']
