# Create a Campaign

There are several ways to create a campaign, including:

- Directly from the Campaigns page: Select + **New campaign**.
- In the **New flight** page, where you can create a new campaign to contain the new flight.

## Permissions

- An [Organization Admin](/user/docs/user-roles) can create campaigns for any team.
- Other user roles can create campaigns only for teams that they belong to.

## Campaign Details and Additional Information

| Setting | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Advertiser** | If the advertiser does not exist, select **Create an advertiser**. For details, see [Advertisers](/user/docs/advertisers). |
| **Campaign name** | Use a short, descriptive name. |
| **Team** | See [Team Notes](/user/docs/creating-campaigns#team-notes) below. |
| **Account executive** | Only people on the team associated with this campaign can be selected. |
| **Trafficked by** | Only people on the team associated with this campaign can be selected. Any team member can be selected, not just those with the trafficker [user role](/user/docs/tap-user-management). |
| **External ID** | See [External ID](/user/docs/new-tap-user-guide-glossary#external-id). |
| **Notes** | Information for your reference or for anyone else who has access to this campaign. |

## Save a Campaign

Depending on how you arrived at **New campaign**, you have a few options to save the campaign:

- **Create campaign**: Creates the campaign and returns you to the previous page.
- **Create campaign and create flight**: Creates the campaign and immediately takes you to the [**New flight**](/user/docs/creating-a-flight) page.
- **Create campaign and create another campaign**: Creates the campaign and opens another **New campaign** page.
- **Create as draft**: Select this to create the campaign as a draft. This is useful if your organization has an approval flow. The campaign will not run until you change its [status](/user/docs/status) to **Approved**.

## Team Notes

- If the team doesn't already exist when you are creating the campaign, you can select **Create a team** to the right of the Team field and [create the team](/user/docs/teams) before returning to creating the campaign
- You can change a campaign’s team assignment after creating the campaign. If a user is locked out of a campaign because they don't belong to the team it is assigned to, you can fix the problem by changing the campaign's team assignment, or you can [assign that user](/user/docs/tap-creating-managing-users#edit-a-tap-user) to the team that the campaign is already assigned to.

## Bulk Create Campaigns

TAP lets you *bulk-create* up to ten copies of a campaign with a single operation, where the copies have the same campaign details and the campaign names are appended with a copy number.

> [!TIP]
> You can also [bulk create flights](/user/docs/creating-a-flight#creatingsaving-the-flight).

The procedure starts with an "original" unsaved campaign, from which you can make up to ten numbered copies ("My Campaign (copy 1)," "My Campaign (copy2)," etc.).

1. On the **Campaigns** list page, click **+ New campaign**.
2. On the **New campaign** page, select the **advertiser**, enter a **campaign name**, and select the associated **team**.
3. Select **Create campaign > Create multiple campaigns**.
4. In the **Bulk create campaigns** window that appears, select the **number of copies** you wish to create. The number includes the current campaign you are creating, so if you want a total of four campaigns, select "4."
5. Click **Create campaigns**.

6. A status window appears showing you the new campaigns and indicating that they were successfully created. To go back to the form and create more campaigns, click **Go back to form**. Otherwise, click **Go to campaigns**.
