[Indie Ads Manager (IAM)](https://help.indiegraf.com/indie-ads-manager-iam?hsLang=en) January 15, 2026 # Using Shared Schedules in Indie Ads Manager ## Apply the same scheduling parameters and impression quota to multiple campaigns using the Shared Schedules feature in Indie Ads Manager. Our shared schedules feature allows you to have multiple campaign assignments share the same scheduling parameters. ### The benefits of using a shared schedule In many cases, you will have multiple campaigns that need to follow a common schedule and impressions quota rather than serving based on individual assignment settings. For example: you have a 300x250 medium rectangle ad and a 728x90 leaderboard ad that are part of the same campaign and you want both to stop serving when the combined total of impressions reaches a certain limit. By using a shared schedule, each of those campaigns will serve following the same date range and contribute to the same impression quota. By using a shared schedule, when the combined impression total reaches the limit set under Quota, the ads in the campaigns that use the shared schedule will stop serving. If the impression quota is not met, each campaign will continue to serve until the specified end date. #### Note: Shared Schedules are only available in campaign assignments set at the campaign level. If your campaign is set to schedule at the ad item level, the shared schedule option will not appear. ### How to set a shared schedule In order to set up a shared schedule, you need to have at least two campaigns assigned to the same zone or channel. 1. ***Log into Indie Ads Manager*** and navigate to the relevant zone or channel. 2. ***Click on the name of the relevant campaign*** under the ***Assigned Campaigns*** table. Its assignment details page will open. ​ ​ ![Figure 1. The Schedule option can be found under the Pacing & Schedule tab of a Campaign Assignment.](https://downloads.intercomcdn.com/i/o/h3ow1mww/1288812049/71145e310a4a13eb09184a13eeed/Shared+Schedules+-+Campaign+Assignment.jpg?expires=1760720400&signature=3bce1152093a69484234c6f009d20d4365c911643ff8f68bac9fa91062e76264&req=dSIvHsF%2Fn4FbUPMW1HO4zZb2WwK9o0cCa5xB5%2BCvMkTaYNTFCkc1pedcb4va%0Amrdv%0A) *Figure 1. The Schedule option can be found under the Pacing & Schedule tab of a Campaign Assignment.* 3. ***Under the Pacing & Schedule*** section, select ***Create a new schedule from inputs*** from the Schedule dropdown. 4. ***Configure the schedule*** that you want to use for all the campaigns. Shared settings will also apply to the ***Frequency Capping*** tab. 5. Click ***Save***. 6. ***Open the assignment page*** for the other campaign(s) for which you want to use the shared schedule. ​ ![](https://downloads.intercomcdn.com/i/o/h3ow1mww/1288816037/5fb13a073f4b394a84165a702e05/Shared+Schedules+-+Campaign+Assignment+2.jpg?expires=1760720400&signature=467f9f7d2f7c0cd4c7004bc2652279c01f6b7d653263952b14d1552797fd99e1&req=dSIvHsF%2Fm4FcXvMW1HO4zaBbmrWU2%2B1J%2Bn%2Bzf8Gbpwu%2BxoygLyKMIS1tnIhz%0AhLCD%0A) *Figure 2. Select from the dropdown of Existing Campaign Schedules after setting up your first campaign.* 7. Under the ***Pacing & Schedule*** tab, select the name of the campaign you created the original shared assignment under. 8. Click ***Save***. Now, all campaigns you’ve included in the shared schedule will follow the same pacing & schedule and frequency capping options you have set. #### Note: A shared schedule can be edited from any assignment that is following the shared schedule. And updates will be applied to all assignments. - [Welcome to Indiegraf](https://help.indiegraf.com/welcome-to-indiegraf?hsLang=en) - [Onboarding](https://help.indiegraf.com/onboarding?hsLang=en#main-content) -
