Frequently asked questions
Can I see the flights associated with a campaign?
Yes, use the list_flights tool to get a full list of flights, which includes their parent campaign IDs and targeting metadata.
How do I check the status of my ad inventory sites?
The list_sites and list_zones tools provide real-time visibility into your inventory structure and the status of each placement.
Is it possible to list all uploaded creatives?
Absolutely. Use the list_creatives tool to retrieve a comprehensive list of all ad creatives configured in your Kevel account.
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.
