Download the Info deck on how to create a CTV/OLV creative using Social Import (auto-fill) [Here](https://help.novastudio.ai/hubfs/Social%20Import%20CTV%20Tutorial%20(3).pdf?hsLang=en)
This article will explain the procedure to follow when creating a CTV/OLV (VAST) creative in the Nova platform via social import (auto-fill)
Social Import (auto-fill) works only with **Facebook, Instagram, Youtube, TikTok, X (formerly Twitter) and LinkedIn** Public posts. For other social media like Snapchat, Pinterest etc. needs to be [created manually](https://createwithnova.wiki/how-do-i-create-a-ctv/olv-with-manual-asset-upload)
You can read more about CTV Tech Specs, FAQs and Benefits [Here](https://createwithnova.wiki/about-ctvs)
### Procedure
- Once you login into Nova UI, you'll need to create a new campaign. Learn about creating a new campaign [here](https://createwithnova.wiki/nova-createacampaign)
- Under a campaign, hover over to the **Add Creative** button.

- Select the **Import from Social Post** button

- Paste the Public Social Post URL in the box.

- Once we extract the assets from the social media post, select the assets to import and click on **Import**.

- Additionally if you desire to change the video template that gets selected by default once you import a url
- Deselect the default template that is automatically chosen when the social post is imported
- And then select the preferred template once the post is imported automatically.
- Add the **Creative Name** in **Creative Details.** *Optional:* Select **Background Colour** and **Text Colour** if desired.

- ### **Customized QR Codes for CTV**
- To customize QR codes under any CTV creative, navigate to the QR Code section of the creative.
- The default is “standard”, click the dropdown box and select **Custom Image Upload**
- Drag and drop the custom QR code onto the QR Code Image upload (or just click it and select the image to upload)
- There are no specific minimum height/width requirements; standard QR codes should suffice.
- Support (PNG/JPG) image formats.
- Tracking is not enabled on customized QR code uploads.
- View the **Preview** section to see how the video will look, in real-time.

For Best Practices, keep the caption/CTA short so the viewer is able to read them. Also, remove any hashtags from the caption as they don't really fit in the CTV environment.
- Hit the **Save** button to save the creative.

- Click on **Render** button to generate the VAST tag. This may take up to 30 minutes.
-png.png)
- If rendering is not yet complete, you will see a warning message. Wait a few more minutes and try again.
-png.png)
- Select **Review Render** to **Approve** or **Reject** the creative.
-png.png)
- Clicking ***Approve***will lock the creative and it can no longer be edited. It will then allow you to export your **VAST Tag**.
-png.png)
Once you ***Approve*** the rendered creative, you will no longer be allowed to change it. If you need to make changes to an approved creative, ***Duplicate*** the creative, make your changes, then ***Render***the duplicated creative.
14. If you’re not satisfied, ***Reject***the creative and resubmit another render once you’ve made changes. Rejecting the render returns the creative to the editing stage .
