List the ad sets in the given ad accounts, optionally only those under ad_campaign_id. An ad set’s id is what ad_set_id takes on GET /v1/metrics/insights and /v1/metrics/ads, and the key of a group_by=ad_set insights row.

Ordered by last_active_at descending (never-active rows last), then by name. query matches names case-insensitively; status narrows to one delivery status. Every ad_account_id must be visible in space_id — 404 otherwise, as on insights.

Pass fields to trim the response to the properties you actually need — e.g. ?fields=name,status returns just those (plus id, always). Unknown names are rejected rather than ignored.

Required scope: metrics:read — a scope of its own, deliberately not covered by media:read, because ad spend and revenue are a different sensitivity class from asset metadata. (all:read does cover it.)

space_id is required and decides what you can see. The caller must be able to read that space (404 otherwise, so a space you can’t reach is indistinguishable from one that doesn’t exist), and an ad account is returned only when it is shared with that space or with the whole organization — or is private and was connected by the calling user. Rate-limit cost: 5.

Parameters

Query Parameters

space_id

required

string format: uuid

Example

6916bc3d-e1ab-425b-ac25-eefada01a9a2

Required. The single space to query, as a UUID. The API reads one space at a time — comma-separated lists and wildcards are not accepted, and there is no implicit default.

ad_account_id

required

string

Example

f0958ef1-b662-425b-8794-79ca648489c7

Ad accounts to read from, comma-separated — ids from GET /v1/metrics/ad-accounts. Each must be visible in space_id.

query

string

Only return rows whose name contains this (case-insensitive).

status

string

Allowed values: not_launched_yet live paused

Only return rows with this delivery status.

limit

integer

>= 1 <= 100

Max rows per page (1–100). Default 25.

cursor

string

Pagination cursor returned as next_cursor from the previous page.

fields

string

Return only these properties of each ad set, instead of the full object. id is always included. Omit for the complete object. Selectable: id, external_id, ad_account_id, name, status, first_active_at, last_active_at, created_at, updated_at, ad_campaign_id.

ad_campaign_id

string

Only ad sets under these campaigns, comma-separated.

application/json

object

data

required

Array<object>

object

required

Focal’s id for the ad set — the key of a group_by=ad_set insights row, and what ad_set_id takes on GET /v1/metrics/insights (filters.ad_set_ids in query_metrics) and /v1/metrics/ads.

string format: uuid

external_id

required

The id on the ad platform itself. Use it to correlate with data pulled straight from the platform; use id when calling Focal.

string

ad_account_id

required

The ad account it belongs to — an id from GET /v1/metrics/ad-accounts.

string format: uuid

name

required

The name as it appears on the ad platform.

string

status

required

Delivery status as last synced from the ad platform.

string

Allowed values: not_launched_yet live paused

first_active_at

required

YYYY-MM-DD of the first day the platform reported activity, or null when it never ran.

string format: date

nullable

last_active_at

required

YYYY-MM-DD of the most recent day the platform reported activity, or null when it never ran.

string format: date

nullable

created_at

required

When Focal first synced it.

string format: date-time

updated_at

required

string format: date-time

ad_campaign_id

required

The campaign it runs under (an id from GET /v1/metrics/ad-campaigns), or null when Focal hasn’t synced one.

string format: uuid

nullable

next_cursor

required

Pass back as cursor to fetch the next page. null on the last page.

string

nullable

has_more

required

true when another page is available. Equivalent to next_cursor !== null.

boolean

The request was malformed (invalid cursor, unknown type, validation failure, etc.). error.code is bad_request.

application/json

Canonical error envelope. code is stable across releases and intended for programmatic handling; message is human-readable. details only appears for validation failures and lists the offending fields.
