For Updating a Widget

Note: if the option to update to the latest version is not shown in blue, then your widget is already using the latest version!
Step 2

Click the Save button in the upper right corner to apply the change. When the widget saves successfully a temporary message will appear to confirm the widget has been saved. Afterward, you can click the red X button above the Save button to close out of the widget builder.

Step 3

After leaving the Widget Builder, you must click Publish Changes in the upper right corner of the campaign for all saved changes to take effect.
