Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more
The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.
This server provides 10 capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP client. No middleware. No custom integration required.
Navigating Ad Campaigns shouldn't require 15 clicks.
Today, checking campaign status is a multi-step process. You have to log in, select the correct account, find the main dashboard tab, filter by date range, drill down into specific ad groups, and then click another tab just for budget details—all before you even get the numbers.
With this MCP server, your agent handles it all. Instead of clicks, you use a simple prompt like 'Show me Campaign Delta's current status.' You get the detailed metrics immediately, structured cleanly in chat.
Microsoft Ads MCP Server: Get campaign, budget & keyword data.
The manual steps that disappear are navigating to the billing tab just for `list_ms_budgets`, and then having to manually cross-reference those budgets with ad groups found via `get_ms_ad_group_details`. It's tedious data stitching.
Now, your agent connects all these pieces. You get a single, cohesive answer that combines budget status, campaign scope, and granular performance metrics without you lifting a finger.
What you can do with this MCP connector
Look, this Microsoft Ads MCP Server connects your AI agent straight into your advertising data. You don't gotta click through a dozen tabs or wrestle with clunky reports; your agent just calls the right tool and gives you the raw numbers you need. It's built for marketers who live in campaign metrics.
Getting Started: Account Overview & Campaigns
You can use get_ms_account_info to grab fundamental details about the connected Microsoft Ads account. Need to find a specific ad campaign? You've got two ways: run list_ms_campaigns to see every single campaign you got running, or if you know part of the name, use search_ms_campaigns to filter it down fast.
Once you pick a campaign, get_ms_campaign_details pulls all its deep info—its objective and what status it's in.
Deep Dive: Ad Groups, Keywords, and Ads
After selecting a campaign, you gotta know what's inside. Run list_ms_ad_groups to see every ad group linked to that campaign structure. For granular performance metrics on just one section, use get_ms_ad_group_details. You can then run list_ms_keywords against an ad group to pull a complete list of keywords and the specific performance data tied to each one.
To check what actual copy is running, list_ms_ads retrieves all the text, image, and status details for every single ad inside that ad group. You can also check which geo or demographic rules apply by calling list_ms_targeting_settings against a campaign.
Budgeting & Management
To keep tabs on spending, use list_ms_budgets to generate a list of all shared budget containers across your whole account. This lets you track limits without digging through every single campaign's settings.

How Microsoft Ads MCP Works
- 1 Your AI client sends a natural language request (e.g., 'What's the budget status in Campaign Alpha?').
- 2 The MCP Server identifies the necessary function (
list_ms_budgets) and executes the call using your account credentials. - 3 The server returns structured data, which your agent then formats into a clear, readable summary for you.
The bottom line is that it turns complex API calls—like checking ad group details or listing keywords—into simple chat commands.
Who Is Microsoft Ads MCP For?
This tool is built for the Digital Marketing Manager, the PPC Specialist, and the Data Analyst. If you spend your day switching between the Microsoft Ads console, a spreadsheet, and Slack to pull metrics—you need this. It cuts out the context switching.
Uses get_ms_ad_group_details to quickly compare performance across different ad groups without manually downloading reports.
Runs list_ms_campaigns followed by list_ms_budgets to get a high-level view of spending limits and campaign status for quarterly reporting.
Uses the server to query specific data points, like finding all keywords in an ad group that haven't been viewed recently, saving hours of manual filtering.
What Changes When You Connect
- Checks your spending limits instantly. Instead of navigating to the billing tab to run
list_ms_budgets, you just ask your agent for 'shared budgets' and get a clean list. - Goes deep on performance metrics. Need to know exactly what's running? Use
get_ms_ad_group_detailsto pull all ad group stats without leaving the chat window. - Saves time listing content. Instead of clicking through, use
list_ms_keywordsand specify the ad group ID; you get a clean list of every keyword in seconds. - Finds what you need faster. Forget scrolling through 50 campaigns—use
search_ms_campaignsto filter by name or partial text immediately. - Builds better reports. By combining
list_ms_adswithget_ms_ad_group_details, your agent can pull all creative assets and associated metrics in one go.
Real-World Use Cases
Investigating a Budget Overrun
The analyst notices spending spiked. They ask their agent, 'What are the current budgets?' The agent calls list_ms_budgets and identifies that Campaign Gamma's budget is maxed out, saving an emergency manual check.
Auditing Campaign Structure
The manager wants to see everything. They prompt the agent to 'List all campaigns in the last quarter.' The server runs list_ms_campaigns, followed by calling list_ms_ad_groups for each one, giving them a complete structural map.
Optimizing Keyword Performance
A user suspects poor keyword performance. They tell the agent to check 'keywords in Ad Group Beta.' The agent runs list_ms_keywords, pulls the list, and highlights any keywords with a high click rate but low conversions.
Reviewing Targeting Rules
Before launching an ad, the specialist needs to confirm geo-restrictions. They ask the agent for 'targeting settings on Campaign Delta.' The server uses list_ms_targeting_settings and returns a bulleted list of active rules.
The Tradeoffs
Manually checking budgets
Logging into the Microsoft Ads console, navigating to 'Billing,' filtering by date range, then exporting an XLSX file just to see if you're close to hitting your cap.
→
Just ask your agent. Prompt: 'What are the shared budgets and how much is left?' The server runs list_ms_budgets and gives you a direct answer in chat.
Listing everything, then filtering
Using the main campaign list view to find Campaign Zeta, scrolling through dozens of results until you spot the right name—a huge waste of time.
→
Use search_ms_campaigns instead. Prompt: 'Search for campaigns containing 'Q4 Retargeting'.' It filters immediately.
Missing ad group details
Pulling a list of keywords (list_ms_keywords) but not seeing which specific campaign or ad group they belong to, making the data useless.
→
Always start by getting context. First run get_ms_campaign_details, then use list_ms_ad_groups to get the parent container ID before running any list tools.
When It Fits, When It Doesn't
Use this server if your primary need is structured data retrieval from Microsoft Ads—specifically, listing groups of related items (Campaigns -> Ad Groups -> Keywords). You should use it when you need to answer 'What is the status of X?' or 'Give me a list of Y.' Don't use it if you just want general marketing advice; your agent can write that. Also, don't rely on it for historical data older than what the API exposes (check documentation). If your core task involves running complex creative copy generation or interpreting market trends outside of ad performance metrics, look into specialized AI tools instead.
