Hello, There's been a recent change to the Sandbox environment to ensure that local business ads use mock images that are of the appropriate dimensions. The hope is that this will work around the issues that folks had with testing local business ad creation in the Sandbox.
Can anyone who was experiencing trouble check and see whether they're now able to successfully check/create local business ads in the Sandbox?
