Frequently asked questions

Ceven strictly follows the Snapchat Marketing API requirement for data hashing. Before any user identifier like an email address or phone number leaves your secure environment, the agent applies a SHA 256 hash to the data. This ensures that raw personally identifiable information is never transmitted to Snapchat. The agent normalizes the strings by removing whitespace and converting characters to lowercase before hashing to ensure a high match rate. This process happens in the workflow layer, meaning the model never sees the raw email but triggers the hashed upload to the specific audience segment ID you have selected.
Yes. Ceven can use the copy media tool to move images, videos, and lenses from one ad account to another. This is particularly useful for agencies managing multiple clients or large brands with regional accounts. The agent identifies the media ID in the source account and replicates it in the destination account. Once the copy is complete, the agent can automatically associate that media with new ad squads or campaigns in the new account, removing the need to manually reupload large video files through the Snapchat Ads Manager interface.
A critical quirk of the Snapchat Marketing API is that only one product feed can exist per catalog. If you attempt to create a second feed for the same catalog, the API will return an error. Ceven manages this by checking for existing feeds before attempting a create call. If a feed already exists, the agent will update the existing feed URL or content instead of trying to create a duplicate. This prevents workflow crashes and ensures your product data stays current without violating the one feed per catalog constraint imposed by Snapchat.
The estimation tool allows the agent to test targeting hypotheses before you spend any budget. When you provide a set of targeting criteria such as age, gender, and interests, Ceven calls the estimate audience size endpoint. The agent then returns the minimum and maximum potential reach. You can build a workflow that only creates a campaign if the estimated audience size falls within a specific range, ensuring you do not waste resources on audiences that are too small to be statistically significant or too broad to be effective.
Yes. The agent can create organization roles and assign them to members who have already been invited to the organization. You can set up a workflow that automatically grants a new employee the necessary ad account or catalog permissions based on their role in your HR system. It is important to note that the member must already have an organization level member role before the agent can assign more specific roles like ad account admin or catalog manager. This two step verification process is a built in security feature of the Snapchat API.
When a new audience segment is created, Snapchat sets the initial status to pending while it processes the user list. Ceven handles this by implementing a polling loop. The agent creates the segment and then checks the status at regular intervals. Once the status changes from pending to ready, the agent triggers the next step in your workflow, such as launching the ad squad. This prevents the common error of trying to target a segment that has not yet been fully populated or validated by the Snapchat system.
Ceven can orchestrate A B tests by creating multiple ad squads within a single campaign, each with a different creative element or targeting spec. The agent can then pull performance metrics for each squad every twenty four hours. By comparing the click through rate or conversion rate, the agent can automatically delete the lower performing squad and shift the remaining budget to the winning creative. This creates a self optimizing loop where your Snapchat ads evolve based on real time performance data without requiring manual intervention in the Ads Manager.
Deleting active campaigns or ad squads is a destructive action that cannot be undone. Ceven includes a safety check in its delete workflows. Before calling the delete endpoint, the agent checks the current status of the entity. If the campaign is currently delivering ads, the agent will first pause the campaign to stop spend and then proceed with the deletion. This prevents accidental data loss and ensures that your billing is stopped immediately before the record is purged from the Snapchat Marketing API permanently.
