3-placement grouping

Use this workflow when one ad should include creatives for all three placement groups: Story / Reel, feed, and horizontal.

Recommended setup

For full placement coverage, use all three placement groups for the same ad: vertical, feed, and horizontal.

• Vertical / Story-Reel: a supported vertical format, such as 9x16.

• Feed / Square: a supported square or portrait format, such as 1x1 or 4x5.

• Horizontal / Landscape-Wide: a supported landscape or wide format, such as 16x9 or 1.91:1.

Adtool automatically groups creatives when the filenames share the same base name and use different supported placement tags or dimensions. No manual placement setup is required when the files are recognized correctly.

Step-by-step guide

1. Go to Launch and select creatives

2. Select the vertical, square, and horizontal creatives

Select the creatives that belong to the same ad, then click Continue.

3. Check that Adtool grouped the three formats

If the creatives share the same base name and each file represents a different supported placement group, Adtool recognizes them as one group.

For example, Video V6 9x16 (Story / Reel), Video V6 4x5 (feed), and Video V6 16x9 (horizontal) can be grouped together.

These can be grouped together because the base name matches and each file uses a different supported placement format.

4. Drag creatives into the group if filenames do not match

If Adtool does not group the three formats automatically, drag and drop the creatives into the correct group before continuing.
