Auto-group by file name
Tags like 1x1, 4x5, and 9x16 tell AdManage which creatives belong together. No separate sorting step.
Creative grouping
Name the files. AdManage groups the placements.
Use a shared base name plus a 1x1, 4x5, or 9x16 tag. AdManage groups feed, stories, and reels versions on import so you are not dragging assets into piles before copy and naming.

AdManage strips the placement tag, matches the shared base name, and builds one ad group. Mixed image and video in the same group is allowed.
Placement grouping
Sorting is not a launch step
- Auto-group from 1x1 / 4x5 / 9x16 tags
- Manual groups for catalog and Flexible Ads
- Works on Drive imports and library picks
How assets get grouped
File names do the sorting. You review the groups.
Manual groups for catalog and flex
Put the exact assets together for catalog cards or Flexible Ads in a few clicks.
Built into the launch flow
Grouping happens after you select assets and before you configure copy, naming, and enhancements.
Why this exists
Why file names should do the sorting
Manual sorting does not survive a 200-asset drop.
A Drive folder of feed and stories cuts should not take twenty minutes of dragging. The file name already knows the placement.
Flexible Ads and catalogs still need a human group.
Auto-group covers standard placements. Manual groups remain for catalog cards and Flexible Ads where you pick the exact mix.
From folder to grouped ads
Tag. Import. Confirm. Launch.
Name the files
Use a shared base name plus a placement tag, for example summer_hook_9x16.
Select the folder
Import from Drive or the media library. AdManage groups on the way in.
Review and launch
Confirm the groups, set copy, and publish the batch.
FAQ
Creative grouping questions
- How does auto-grouping work?
- AdManage reads placement tags in the file name, strips them, and groups assets that share the remaining base name.
- Can I mix images and videos in one group?
- Yes. Mixed image and video assets can sit in the same launch session.
- When does grouping happen?
- After you select assets for launch and before final configuration. It is part of the launch flow, not a separate tool.
- What placement tags does AdManage recognize?
- Common aspect-ratio tags such as 1x1, 4x5, and 9x16. Keep the base name identical so feed, stories, and reels versions land in one group.
- Can I still group assets by hand?
- Yes. Use manual grouping when you need a catalog card set or a Flexible Ads mix that the file name should not decide.
