Copy campaigns
If you work with the same advertisers every month and have to regularly create ad campaigns with a similar set of banners and similar settings, use the campaign copy feature.
Note
You can't copy external monetizers' campaigns.
To copy an ad campaign:
-
Click
→ Copy next to the campaign in the list of campaigns or on the campaign page next to its name.What it looks like
-
In the window that opens, select the copy options:
-
Copy with content / Copy without content: Select Copy with content to copy all nested items (for a supercampaign, these can be flights and banners). Copy without content indicates that the copy won't include any nested items.
-
Preserve marking settings: Select this option to copy the labeling parameters configured for the item:
-
For supercampaigns and flights, this includes the contract and advertiser information.
-
For banners, this is the third-party token, ad label, banner menu, and creative media data.
Data transfer to the Russian state register (ERIR) is disabled for the newly created copy. To start sending this data, select Marking procedure → Submit data to state register in the parameters of the newly created item after copying is complete.
Warning
If data transfer to the Russian state register (ERIR) was enabled for the copied banner and the creative obtained a token from the Yandex Advertising Data Operator, a new token will be assigned to the creative when copying the labeling settings.

-
Number of copies: Specify how many copies you need. You can create up to 10 copies of a single item.

Alert
If an error occurs during the copying process, no copies are created.
A new campaign will be created based on the selected one with the same general settings, placements, restrictions, and targeting settings. The start date for the newly created item matches the copying date. Statistics aren't copied.
If an item has an end date, its copies will have the same running period as the copied item. For example, if you copy a supercampaign that was launched for a period of seven days, the end date of the new supercampaign is set to seven days after the copying date.
The new campaign is assigned the Paused status. All of its nested items inherit their status from the original items.
