Writes (money-moving)
gads_propose_replace_ad
Replace a weak RSA in ONE approval: pause the old ad and create the new one atomically.
Replace a weak RSA in ONE approval: pause the old ad and create the new one atomically. Use when the ad group is at Google's 3-enabled-RSA cap (a plain proposeCreateRsa would fail) or when swapping a loser for stronger copy. Review-tier — queues for operator approval. 3–15 headlines (≤30 chars), 2–4 descriptions (≤90 chars).
Type: money-moving write. Every write is dry-run validated, then classified by the safe-apply policy — auto-applied when bounded and low-risk, otherwise queued for approval.
