Description

**USE THIS TOOL WHEN:** User wants to create a LinkedIn VIDEO ad campaign. **DO NOT USE for image ads** → use `create_linkedin_image_campaign` instead. **DO NOT USE for carousel ads** → use `create_linkedin_carousel_campaign` instead. **DO NOT USE for text ads** → use `create_linkedin_text_campaign` instead. **REQUIRED:** Either `campaign_group_name` (creates new group) or `campaign_group_id` (adds to existing group). IMPORTANT: This creates the campaign with 1 creative (Variation 1). Campaign is created in PAUSED status. Video Specifications: - Format: MP4 (H.264 codec) - File size: 75KB - 500MB - Duration: 3 seconds - 30 minutes (recommended: 15-30 seconds) - Aspect ratios: 16:9, 1:1, 4:5, 9:16 Video Source (one required): - video_urn: Existing video URN from discover_linkedin_assets - video_url: Public URL to download and upload MP4 video Required Parameters: - campaign_name, daily_budget, organization_id, headline - introductory_text (up to 600 chars), landing_page_url - locations (targeting), video source (urn or url) - campaign_group_name OR campaign_group_id Default Objective: VIDEO_VIEW (optimizes for video views) AD POLICY: NEVER use "LinkedIn" in ad copy. NEVER mention competitor platforms. **After Creation — IMPORTANT:** - This tool created 1 campaign + 1 creative. Campaign Group ID is returned. - To add MORE creatives (A/B test copy): use `add_linkedin_video_creative` with the campaign_id - To add MORE campaigns (different audience): use `add_linkedin_campaign_to_group` with the campaign_group_id - NEVER call this create tool again without campaign_group_id — that creates a SEPARATE campaign group Execution time: 30-120 seconds (includes video upload and processing)
