Review and Edit Package Settings Using Bulksheets

You can download the settings for one or more packages in XLSX (Microsoft Excel spreadsheet) format for review. The spreadsheet includes a separate tab with flight information.

To update multiple settings at once, you can do either of the following:

  • Make changes to select fields, save the file, and upload the edited bulksheet file back to DSP.

  • To make changes to additional packages, and to settings for any placement or ad, download a blank bulksheet template that includes tabs for each type of campaign component, enter or paste new or updated settings into the template file, and then upload the file to make the changes. For instructions, see “Review and Edit Campaign Component Settings Using Bulksheets.”

Editable fields include most settings that are normally editable.

TIP
To quickly edit more fields for one or more packages, see “Edit Packages.”
