Poll ads can no longer be created or updated on any version from Oct 27
…
Until Oct 27, 2026 (midnight ET)
What changed
Poll components are no longer supported when creating or updating ads and creatives. poll_spec and the poll type under interactive_components_spec are already unavailable on v26.0+, and the removal reaches all Marketing API versions on October 27, 2026. Updates that don't touch the creative, like renaming or pausing, still work.
What to do
Find any live poll ads and plan replacement creative. Ask tool vendors to strip poll fields from creative specs before Oct 27.
