# Duplicate an ad set

`POST /v1/ads/ad-sets/{adSetId}/duplicate`

Duplicates an ad set, including its ads and creatives by default (`deepCopy: true`),
via Meta's native `POST /{adset-id}/copies`. The copy is created paused so callers can
review before launching. `campaignId` retargets the copy into another campaign; omitted
= the source's own campaign. The new hierarchy materializes asynchronously — sync
discovery is triggered automatically (`syncAfter: false` to skip).

## Path parameters

- `adSetId` string, required

## Headers

- `Idempotency-Key` string

## Request body

  - `platform` 'facebook' | 'instagram', required
  - `campaignId` string — Destination platform campaign id (defaults to the source's campaign)
  - `deepCopy` boolean — Copy child ads + creatives
  - `statusOption` 'ACTIVE' | 'PAUSED' | 'INHERITED_FROM_SOURCE'
  - `startTime` string, date-time — Reschedule the copy's start time
  - `endTime` string, date-time
  - `renameStrategy` 'DEEP_RENAME' | 'ONLY_TOP_LEVEL_RENAME' | 'NO_RENAME'
  - `renamePrefix` string

  - `copiedAdSetId` string — Platform ID of the new ad set
