Update Campaign

Fallback Meta Ads campaign patch tool for advanced or unsupported cases such as spend cap, special ad category, promoted object or per ad set budgets. Use this only when no dedicated Meta Ads campaign operation supports the requested change; if one exists, such as meta_ads_update_campaign_budget or meta_ads_update_campaign_status, always use it instead. This tool patches only the fields provided in update_payload and does not replace the full campaign. Supports dry-run review before applying changes.

Inputs

Field	Type	Required	Default	Description
`account`	DynamicAccount	Yes	-	Select Meta Ads account, ask the user for it if not provided
`campaign_id`	string or SelectItem	Yes	-	The Meta Ads campaign ID to update. Do not include this inside update_payload.
`update_payload`	object or string	Yes	-	Patch payload for Meta’s Campaign update API as an object or JSON string. Only the fields provided here are sent to Meta; this does not replace the full campaign. Use focused operations first when they exist, for example meta_ads_update_campaign_status or meta_ads_update_campaign_budget. Use valid Meta campaign fields, for example spend_cap (minor currency units, minimum about 100 USD; 922337203685478 removes the cap), special_ad_category and special_ad_category_country, promoted_object, objective, adset_budgets (per child daily_budget or lifetime_budget, needed when switching between campaign and child budgets). Campaign start_time and stop_time are derived from its ad sets and cannot be set here; use meta_ads_update_adset_schedule on each ad set. Do not include identity fields like account_id or campaign_id.
`dry_run`	boolean	No	`False`	When true, return the resolved update payload without calling Meta Ads.

Field	Type	Required	Default	Description
`value`	string	Yes	-	The value of the selectable item.
