How to connect your ad accounts to ChatGPT

Add your advertising accounts to ChatGPT as an MCP connector through developer mode. One URL with OAuth, enabled per conversation.

For you

What the answer looks like, and what to type to get it.

ChatGPT speaks the Model Context Protocol, so there is nothing to install. You paste one URL, sign in once, and your advertising accounts become tools it can call.

SetupLink to this section

  1. Open Settings, then Connectors.
  2. Turn on developer mode under Advanced.
  3. Choose Create, and give the connector a name.
  4. Paste https://mcp.getmcpads.com/mcp as the MCP server URL, with OAuth as the authentication.
  5. Approve the sign-in page, then enable the connector in the composer for a conversation.

Before it can answer anythingLink to this section

Connecting the client is one half. The other is connecting at least one advertising platform in the dashboard and ticking which accounts to expose. Both need you, not the assistant: one is a consent screen at Google or Meta, the other is a decision about which accounts a machine may read.

For your agent

The tool sequence, the parameters that matter, and what will be refused.

Setting up ChatGPT against this gateway. The endpoint is https://mcp.getmcpads.com/mcp, and each source also has its own endpoint if a narrower tool list is wanted.

What the client does on its ownLink to this section

  1. It requests https://mcp.getmcpads.com/mcp and receives a 401 with a WWW-Authenticate header.
  2. It reads the protected resource metadata named in that header.
  3. It registers itself through dynamic client registration. No key is issued or pasted.
  4. It opens the authorisation page with PKCE and waits for the person to approve.
  5. It calls tools/list and receives the tools for the connected sources, plus four routing tools.

Checking it workedLink to this section

Call list_accounts. It answers without touching any advertising API, so it separates a connection problem from an account problem. An empty list means the platform is connected but nothing was ticked.
