### Campaign Status A campaign can be in different status depending on campaign state. Campaign status depicts the state of a campaign. A campaign can be created (**idle**) or can be saved incomplete (**draft**). After the campaign creation, a campaign can be started (**started**), and then either paused (**paused**) or run until it's finished (**finished**).

{% hint style="info" %} Keep in mind that an incomplete/**draft** campaign (a campaign with not all required data set) cannot start/run. You will first need to edit the campaign and complete all steps before running it. {% endhint %} On the table below you can find the different campaign statuses/states and what each mean. | Campaign Status | Explanation | | ---------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **idle** | A new campaign that has been created and saved. | | **draft** |

A new campaign that has been saved before completely finishing all steps.

When you create a campaign, there are some creation steps and some required fields. You can exit/save the campaign before completing everything. This created a "draft" campaign. A draft campaign is incomplete and need to be fully completed before running it.

Using folders can help you manage and organize your campaigns based on your websites, clients or projects. For example you can have a folder where you keep all your campaigns for a specific client or website. To create a new folder click on "**Create Folder**" button located on top left.

Every time you create a new campaign, the campaign will be saved within the folder that has been selected. In the next image for example, you can see that if you create a new campaign it will saved within the folder "**client A**" which is currently selected.

You can also move campaigns into other folders. You can either move a single campaign using hover button "**Move to Folder**". You can also move multiple campaigns into a folder by selecting multiple campaigns and then using "**Move to Folder**" option from the burger button (on the top-right).
