Generate Shareable Previews - Markifact

Generate shareable Google Ads preview links for Performance Max asset groups, so a client can see how the ads look without a Google Ads login. Google only supports Performance Max asset groups and some YouTube ad formats here; responsive search and display ads are rejected. The links expire, and the expiry comes back with each one.
