The issue in your screenshot is due to an incomplete selection when creating the campaign/ad.

Here’s what’s happening and how to fix it:

If you just want to add another ad to the same campaign/ad set:

  1. Don't click “Create” at campaign level.
    That starts a whole new campaign.

  2. Instead, go to:

    • Select the existing campaign.

    • Go to the “Ad Set” tab.

    • Click into the existing ad set.

    • Click the green “Create Ad” button from inside that ad set.

  3. This opens a fresh ad within the same setup — no need to select campaign objective again.

    Note: If You See the Red “Prohibited” Symbol, it usually means a required step is skipped or a permission/account error.
