Create Ad

Advanced: creates a Pinterest ad from a raw ad payload sent to Pinterest as-is. Use the dedicated operations first (pinterest_ads_create_single_image_ad, pinterest_ads_create_video_ad, pinterest_ads_create_carousel_ad, pinterest_ads_create_ad_from_pin); use this only for ad formats or fields they do not support, such as MAX_VIDEO, COLLECTION, QUIZ, or grid_click_type. To get a pin_id for new media, run a dedicated create operation with pin_only=true first.
