The RevContent Excel Uploader lets you prepare and launch multiple campaigns at once without going through the UI one by one. You define everything — targeting, budget, bidding, and creatives — in a structured Google Sheets template, export it to Excel, and submit it through TheOptimizer.

How It Works

1

Clone the Google Sheets Template

Start by making a copy of the RevContent Excel template into your own Google account:Clone the RevContent Google Sheets Template →The template contains:
  • A main sheet with one row per ad (campaign settings + creative in each row)
  • Auxiliary sheets with reference data: Languages, Countries, Regions, Traffic Types, and more
  • Column notes on every column header — hover over the column name to see the accepted values and format
2

Fill in Your Campaigns

Each row in the main sheet represents one ad. To create a campaign with multiple ads, add one row per ad keeping all campaign-level columns identical, and vary only the ad-level columns (image URL, headline, etc.).Key things to note:
  • Columns marked 🚩 REQUIRED must be filled in — the upload will fail if they’re missing
  • Columns marked 🟡 are conditionally required (e.g. Country Codes only needed if Country Targeting is INCLUDE or EXCLUDE)
  • Use the auxiliary sheets to look up valid values for countries, regions, languages, etc.
3

Export to Excel and Upload

Once your sheet is ready:
  1. In Google Sheets, go to File → Download → Microsoft Excel (.xlsx)
  2. Open Campaign Creator in TheOptimizer
  3. From the menu, select Create from Excel
  4. Follow the on-screen steps and submit your file

Check Your Email for Confirmation

After submitting, TheOptimizer processes the file and sends you an email:
  • Successful upload — your campaigns are queued and being created on RevContent. Track progress from the Campaign Creator page.
  • ⚠️ Upload failed — the email will include a new Excel file with all error cells highlighted. Download it, fix the issues, and re-upload.
