Microsoft Advertising is introducing more automation through ad suggestions with auto-apply on the Recommendations page. You’ll get an email notification from Microsoft Advertising with suggestions for new ads depending on your email preference setting. You’ll have 14 days from the notification to review them. After that, the ads will be automatically enabled unless you choose to remove them. You can opt-out of automatically applying these ads in your account Settings at any time. If your Auto-apply ad suggestions setting is Off, you may still see ad suggestions on the Recommendations page, but you need to add them into your account manually. Ad suggestions can help save time when creating ads or give you ideas to tailor your ads to your audiences.
