Frequently asked questions
Can I pause or enable campaigns directly through the AI agent?
Currently, the tools focus on investigative queries and performance analysis. To change the status of a campaign or ad group, please use the Google Ads UI to ensure full budget and policy compliance.
How can I check which keywords are driving the most conversions?
You can use the getKeywordPerformance tool for a specific ad group. It will return metrics like clicks, impressions, and CTR for each keyword, allowing the AI to identify your top contributors.
Does this integration support multiple client accounts under a manager account?
Yes! Use the list_accessible_customers tool to see all accounts your credentials have access to. You can then specify the target Customer ID when running performance queries.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
