How do I review and apply campaign changes?

Every campaign change in Decisa starts as a draft: you submit it for approval, an admin approves it, and only then does Apply Changes push it to your ad platform — nothing ever touches Google Ads silently.

Before you start

• A workspace with the Campaign Management module active and a connected Google Ads account.
• To approve or apply changes, you need the owner or admin role in the workspace. Anyone can create drafts; only admins move them forward.

Steps

1. Make a change — it becomes a draft

   On a campaign page, actions like pausing, enabling, or editing the budget (the "Update daily budget" dialog ends with Create changeset) never apply directly. You'll see a confirmation like "Budget update request created. Review it in Changesets."

2. Open Changesets

   Use Campaigns → Changes to reach the Changesets page. Drafts and in-flight requests are grouped by stage: "Drafts", "Pending Approval", "Ready to Apply", "Applying", and "History".

3. Submit for Approval

   Open your draft and check each item — updates show a clear From/To comparison of the old and new values. When it looks right, click Submit for Approval.

4. Approve (or Reject)

   An admin reviews the same change list and clicks Approve — or Reject with an optional reason so the creator knows what to fix.

5. Apply Changes

   Once approved, click Apply Changes. For risky operations the button reads Apply (Destructive) instead, so you know exactly what you're confirming. This is the only moment Decisa writes to your live Google Ads account.

What happens next

• The page shows "Applying changes..." while Decisa pushes the change, then "Changes applied successfully" once every item lands in Google Ads.
• The changeset moves to the "History" section, and its Timeline records who created, approved, and applied it — with timestamps.
• If an item can't be applied, its failure reason appears right on the item so you can see exactly what went wrong.
