Beneath the **Save** button, the duration since your last save is indicated. Once saved, you can leave the Widget Studio whenever you want and resume where you left off.

## Activate

When your widgets are ready, click **Activate** to use them in your campaigns. You widget's status will change to **Active**.

Inactive widgets are considered unfinished and cannot be associated with a campaign. If your widget is already activated, the button will read **Update**.
