# Create Single Image Ad

> Creates a Pinterest single image ad by first creating a Pin, then creating an ad from that Pin

Creates a Pinterest single image ad by first creating a Pin, then creating an ad from that Pin. By default the Pin is ad-only and the ad is created paused. Set pin\_only=true to create only the Pin. For video ads use pinterest\_ads\_create\_video\_ad, for carousels pinterest\_ads\_create\_carousel\_ad, and to promote an existing Pin use pinterest\_ads\_create\_ad\_from\_pin.
