Google Ad Manager Creative Preview
May 25th, 2026
Google Ad Manager creatives now render as visual previews directly in your NinjaCat reports and dashboards.
Add the new Creative Preview dimension to any Google Ad Manager report and each row will display the rendered creative alongside its performance metrics.
A couple of things to know:
- The first time a creative is viewed, its preview is generated on demand and may take a few seconds to appear. Every view after that loads instantly from cache.
- Some cells will legitimately appear blank — for example, when a creative has no renderable asset, is paused or archived, is a House Ad or unfilled-inventory placeholder, or is a custom/VAST template with a missing asset. These are expected and not a product issue.
Coming soon: we're rolling out an enhancement so previews are pre-generated as creatives sync from Google Ad Manager, making that very first view instant too.
