Inputs

Field	Type	Required	Default	Description
`account`	DynamicAccount	Yes	-	Select Pinterest Ads account to create the campaign in.
`campaign_name`	string	Yes	-	Name of the Pinterest campaign.
`objective_type`	string or SelectableOption	Yes	-	Campaign objective. Prefer the simplified objectives: AWARENESS, VIDEO_COMPLETION, CONSIDERATION, LEADS (non-transactional conversions like signups), or SALES (transactional conversions like checkout). APP_INSTALL and CTV_CONSIDERATION are also supported. WEB_CONVERSION and CATALOG_SALES are legacy objectives being deprecated by Pinterest in February 2027; only use them when the user explicitly asks.
`status`	string or SelectableOption	No	`{'value': 'PAUSED', 'label': 'Paused'}`	Status when the campaign is created. Options: ACTIVE, PAUSED, or DRAFT. Default: PAUSED. Use DRAFT to keep the campaign fully editable before launch.
`is_campaign_budget_optimization`	boolean	No	`True`	When true (default), Pinterest automatically distributes the campaign budget across ad groups and a campaign spend cap is required. Set false to manage budgets at the ad group level instead.
`is_performance_plus`	boolean	No	`False`	Enable Pinterest Performance+ for the campaign. Default false.
`spend_cap_type`	string or SelectableOption	No	`{'value': 'daily', 'label': 'Daily'}`	Whether spend_cap is a daily or lifetime spending cap. A lifetime cap requires end_time. Default: daily.
`spend_cap`	number	No	-	Campaign spending cap in the ad account’s currency (for example 50 for $50). Markifact converts it to Pinterest microcurrency automatically. Required when campaign budget optimization is enabled.
`start_time`	integer or string	No	-	Optional campaign start as a Unix timestamp or ISO datetime string. Defaults to now when omitted.
`end_time`	integer or string	No	-	Optional campaign end as a Unix timestamp or ISO datetime string. Required when using a lifetime spend cap. Ads run indefinitely when omitted.
`intended_promotion_type`	string or SelectableOption	No	-	What the campaign promotes. STANDARD_AD for ads derived from Pins (any non-legacy objective). CATALOG for product group promotions (CONSIDERATION, SALES, or LEADS only). LEGACY only with WEB_CONVERSION or CATALOG_SALES.
`default_ad_group_budget`	number	No	-	Only when campaign budget optimization is disabled: default daily budget applied to child ad groups, in the ad account’s currency. Converted to microcurrency automatically.
`is_flexible_daily_budgets`	boolean	No	`False`	Enable Pinterest Performance+ flexible daily budgets. Requires campaign budget optimization with a daily spend cap. Default false.
`is_automated_campaign`	boolean	No	`False`	Create the campaign through Pinterest’s automated campaign flow. Requires a daily spend cap, cannot be combined with Performance+, and only supports CONSIDERATION, SALES, WEB_CONVERSION, or CATALOG_SALES objectives. Default false.
`is_ltv_optimized`	boolean	No	`False`	Optimize the campaign for Lifetime Value. Only available to eligible advertisers. Default false.
`order_line_id`	string	No	-	Optional numeric order line ID that appears on the Pinterest invoice.
