Update Adset

Fallback Meta Ads ad set patch tool for advanced or unsupported cases

Fallback Meta Ads ad set patch tool for advanced or unsupported cases. Use this only when no dedicated Meta Ads ad set operation supports the requested change. If a focused ad set operation exists, such as meta_ads_update_adset_placements, meta_ads_update_adset_locations, or meta_ads_update_adset_audiences, always use that dedicated operation instead. This tool patches only the fields provided in update_payload and does not replace the full ad set. Supports dry-run review before applying changes.
