# Update Adset

> Fallback Meta Ads ad set patch tool for advanced or unsupported cases

Fallback Meta Ads ad set patch tool for advanced or unsupported cases. Use this only when no dedicated Meta Ads ad set operation supports the requested change. If a focused ad set operation exists, such as meta\_ads\_update\_adset\_placements, meta\_ads\_update\_adset\_locations, or meta\_ads\_update\_adset\_audiences, always use that dedicated operation instead. This tool patches only the fields provided in update\_payload and does not replace the full ad set. Supports dry-run review before applying changes.
