How to Use the Microsoft Ads MCP in AutoGen

Q: How do I connect the Microsoft Ads MCP Server to AutoGen?

Install the extension using pip install -U "autogen-extmcp". Use mcpservertools to fetch the tools from the server and pass them to your AssistantAgent.

Q: Can AutoGen agents collaborate to review Microsoft Ads campaigns?

Yes, multiple agents can use listmscampaigns and listmsadgroups to gather data. They then debate the account structure within their conversation group.

Q: How do AutoGen agents handle Microsoft Ads tool schemas?

The McpToolAdapter automatically translates the MCP Server tool schemas into the format AutoGen's AssistantAgent expects. This ensures seamless tool execution during agent debates.

Q: Can my AutoGen agent search for campaigns?

Yes, the agent can call searchmscampaigns to find specific campaigns by name. This helps the agent narrow down its debate to a single marketing effort.

Q: How secure is my Microsoft Ads targeting settings data?

AutoGen debate loops for Microsoft Ads budgets

This MCP tool, `list_ms_budgets`, feeds shared budget data directly into AutoGen's multi-agent conversations. A performance agent can argue for higher spend based on campaign metrics, while a budget agent references these limits to enforce safety guards. This consensus-driven model uses `get_ms_account_info` to verify account limits before making recommendations. The agents deliberate over actual budget data, ensuring no single agent can unilaterally suggest risky spend changes.

Analyze Microsoft Ads targeting settings via AutoGen

The `list_ms_targeting_settings` tool allows your AutoGen agents to inspect targeting configurations during their planning phase. A marketing agent can review current targeting while an analyst agent cross-references it with campaign performance. By combining `get_ms_campaign_details` with targeting data, the agents negotiate the best audience adjustments. The `McpToolAdapter` converts these schemas so your agents can debate the parameters in plain text.

Audit ad creative with AutoGen agent networks

The `list_ms_ads` tool provides the active ad copy that your AutoGen agents need to perform creative audits. One agent can analyze the copy for brand voice, while another checks if the associated keywords from `list_ms_keywords` match the ad text. They use `get_ms_ad_group_details` to verify the structure of the ad group before concluding their debate. This multi-perspective review ensures your ads are fully optimized before you take action.

Setup guide

Set up Microsoft Ads MCP in AutoGen

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
autogen-ext[mcp] package
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install AutoGen with MCP
Run pip install "autogen-ext[mcp]" autogen-agentchat. The MCP extension includes mcp_server_tools for stateless tool access.
2

Fetch tools from the MCP
Call mcp_server_tools(SseServerParams(url=...)) with your Vinkius endpoint. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Run your agent
Pass the tools to AssistantAgent and call agent.run(). The agent invokes Microsoft Ads tools and returns structured results.

agent.py

from autogen_ext.tools.mcp import SseServerParams, mcp_server_tools
from autogen_agentchat.agents import AssistantAgent
from autogen_ext.models.openai import OpenAIChatCompletionClient

server_params = SseServerParams(
    url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
)

tools = await mcp_server_tools(server_params)

agent = AssistantAgent(
    name="Microsoft Ads_assistant",
    model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
    tools=tools,
)

result = await agent.run("List recent Microsoft Ads data")
print(result.messages[-1].content)

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
autogen-ext[mcp] + autogen-agentchat
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Same packages as above. McpWorkbench is ideal when your agent needs stateful sessions across multiple tool calls.
2

Use McpWorkbench as context manager
Wrap your agent in async with McpWorkbench(...) to maintain shared state and resources. The workbench manages the full MCP session lifecycle.
3

Run with workbench
Pass workbench=workbench to your agent. State is preserved across multiple tool calls within the same session.

agent.py

from autogen_ext.tools.mcp import McpWorkbench, SseServerParams
from autogen_agentchat.agents import AssistantAgent
from autogen_ext.models.openai import OpenAIChatCompletionClient

server_params = SseServerParams(
    url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
)

async with McpWorkbench(server_params) as workbench:
    agent = AssistantAgent(
        name="Microsoft Ads_assistant",
        model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
        workbench=workbench,
    )

    result = await agent.run("List recent Microsoft Ads data")
    print(result.messages[-1].content)
