This playbook extends the config-driven Meta Ads system with intelligent campaign generation using LangGraph workflows. Rather than manually writing YAML configurations with dozens of ad variations, this approach transforms a simple campaign input file into campaign strategies through language model assistance while maintaining human oversight at critical decision points.

Part 1 established the core automation infrastructure: Pydantic models for type safety, YAML configurations for campaign structure, and a Facebook service layer that handles batch campaign creation with error handling.

How to Scale Meta Ads with Campaign Matrices
This playbook shows how to use configuration-driven campaign matrices to automate Meta Ads at scale. We’ll build a system that transforms campaign configs into complete ad variations with targeting, budgets, and creatives, eliminating manual setup across dozens of ads.

This foundation provides the execution engine that can reliably create campaigns from structured configurations while maintaining production-level safety controls.

Part 2 adds intelligent generation capabilities on top of this foundation. Where Part 1 required manually crafting YAML files with detailed audience segments and ad variations, Part 2 generates these configurations automatically from minimal input requirements. The same execution infrastructure handles the generated campaigns, ensuring consistency and reliability across both manual and automated workflows.

The combination creates a complete workflow: simple input files generate detailed campaign strategies with language model assistance, human approval ensures strategic alignment, and the proven execution layer handles the API orchestration required to create dozens of ads across multiple audience segments.

The workflow addresses the creative bottleneck in campaign automation: generating diverse audience segments, crafting compelling ad copy variations, and designing test matrices that would typically require hours of manual work. A campaign input file containing only your product description, budget, and target markets can generate 10-20 ad variations across multiple audience segments, each with distinct messaging approaches.

We will extend this workflow to incorporate synthetic creative generation, where AI produces both ad copy and visual assets, enabling fully automated campaign creation from concept to execution.

This playbook focuses on the foundational workflow patterns that make such automation possible while preserving the checkpoints that ensure campaign quality.

Required API Keys

You'll need these API credentials in your .env file:

  • META_ADS_TOKEN - Your Facebook Marketing API access token
  • META_ADS_ACCOUNT_ID - Your Meta ad account ID (format: act_123456789)
  • META_PAGE_ID - Your Facebook page ID for ad creatives
  • ANTHROPIC_API_KEY - Your Anthropic API key for Claude access

Get Meta credentials from Meta's Developer Console with ads_management permissions. Get your Anthropic key from console.anthropic.com.

Workflow Architecture with LangGraph

LangGraph provides the state management and flow control needed for complex campaign generation workflows. Unlike simple API calls, campaign generation requires multiple steps with conditional logic, human interventions, and state persistence across approval cycles.
