Connect Apple Search Ads MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect Apple Search Ads to Windsurf and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Windsurf executes multi-step ad analysis
Cascade reads your performance metrics by running `get_campaign_report` alongside `get_keyword_report` to spot trends immediately. It connects the dots between spend and conversion without you typing a single command. This MCP Server lets the agent plan a sequence. It fetches your active setup with `list_campaigns` and then drills down into specific groups using `list_ad_groups` to find underperforming targets.
Real-time search term diagnostics
Stop digging through dashboards when you can ask Cascade to pull data using `get_search_term_report`. The agent parses the raw output and highlights which terms are burning budget. It verifies your connection status via `get_account_check` before starting. You get a clear view of your account health without switching windows.
Manage campaign structures faster
Retrieve specific campaign details with `get_campaign` to inform your next code change. Cascade uses this data to update your project configurations based on live ad performance. Listing your current keywords is simple with `list_keywords`. The agent processes this list to cross-reference against your local codebase requirements.
