Power Editor "Bulk" uploader is dead ?

Hello guys,

I'm getting an error message everytime I try to bulk upload :

"Server Parsing Failed: Oops"

"Something went wrong. We're working on getting this fixed as soon as we can. You may be able to try again."

Anyone has this too ? Any tip ?

Cheers,

Did you try to reload PE or reopen your browser? Sometimes it's just a glitch...

Did the issue self correct? If not, try a different ad image/url/text etc.

If that's not working try and get the latest version of Chome (Canary) https://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel - could be a browser/compatibility bug.

PE sometimes wont work . You can alternativly use adsworkshop(paid tool). Its great tool for bulk split testing .

Nope the issue didn't self correct... so I manually created a few adsets instead of all the planned gazillion adsets (actually I decided to run fewer as I didn't want to lose too much time doing monkey tasks... manually creating tons of adsets with the PE is one of the lowest-value activity I can think of but unfortunately FB PE is just crap...).

We'll see next time if it works again.

Hi

I recently had the same problem. I'm not a 100% sure anymore how I solved it, but you can give it a try.
Facebook updated Power Editor and some fields changed. For example within page types 'desktop news feed' changed to 'desktopfeed'. And some other stuff like billing events and so on.
What I then did was creating 1 ad with all the specifics from the campaign I wanted to upload. I exported this ad and compared all the fields. Then I made the changes in my upload file and it worked again.

Hope it helps
