Determining the State of a Campaign
A Campaign can either be in the Active or Inactive state. A Campaign is in the Inactive state immediately after it is created and must be activated manually. The Campaign state Property for an Active Campaign is set to Active.
You can ascertain the state of a Campaign from the Campaign state column in the Table View of the Home Workspace, or any user-defined Workspace based on Campaigns.
