The Google Ads Liaison, Ginny Marvin, confirmed a bug when editing ads within a draft or experiment campaign. The Google Ads team is working on a fix, but Ginny provided a workaround. The workaround is to pause an ad, then edit that ad, and then re-enable the ad.

Ginny said on Twitter, "We've found a bug when editing ads in a draft/experiment campaign. A fix is in progress, but in the meantime a workaround is to pause an ad, edit, & re-enable."
