What is the OpenAI Ads MCP server?
OpenAI Ads is OpenAI's advertising platform for ads in ChatGPT, managed in OpenAI Ads Manager or through the OpenAI Ads Advertiser API. The InsightfulPipe OpenAI Ads MCP server is a hosted Model Context Protocol server that connects your OpenAI Ads accounts to AI assistants such as Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code, Gemini CLI and Codex. You create an Ads API key in the Settings tab of OpenAI Ads Manager, add it to InsightfulPipe and paste one server URL into your AI client.
Your assistant can read the ad account, campaigns, ad groups and ads with their review status, and pull insights at account, campaign, ad group and ad level, such as impressions, clicks, spend, CTR, CPC and CPM, hourly, daily or monthly. It can also read click-through and view-through conversion insights, pixels, conversion events and event settings, custom audiences, lead forms and lead sync subscriptions, and search targetable locations.
It can make changes too: create and update campaigns, ad groups and ads, submit bulk jobs of up to 1,000 operations, upload images, generate ad previews, update the brand name and favicon, create pixels and conversion event settings, send server-side conversion events, create, merge and edit custom audiences, build and publish lead forms, and update availability and titles in a linked product feed.
New campaigns, ad groups and ads are created paused, including those in bulk jobs, and you decide which actions your AI can use on each ad account. Archiving audiences or lead forms and removing audience identifiers stay off until an owner, admin or operator turns them on. Each API key covers one ad account, so you can connect several accounts and compare them in one conversation.
How to connect the OpenAI Ads MCP server

Control what your AI can do with OpenAI Ads
Permissions sit between your AI assistant and your connected accounts, so agents only use the actions you allow.
Turn actions on or off per account
Choose which actions agents can use on each connected account. Disabled actions are hidden from the agent and blocked if called.
Read-only or Read & Write
Connect an account as Read-only and only read actions can be enabled on it.
Destructive actions off by default
Actions flagged as destructive, such as deletes, stay off until an owner, admin or operator enables them for the account.
Team access per account
Restricted team members only use the accounts they are granted, with the read actions enabled on them.
New OpenAI Ads campaigns, ad groups and ads created through MCP start paused, including bulk creates. Updates can set them live or archive them permanently, and OpenAI Ads connections use an API key with no Read-only option, so turn off the update actions for any account where agents should not change what is live.

Frequently asked questions
What is an OpenAI Ads MCP server?
An OpenAI Ads MCP server connects OpenAI Ads to AI assistants through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard for giving AI tools access to data and actions. Once connected, you can ask Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor how your ads in ChatGPT are performing and ask it to make changes, instead of working through OpenAI Ads Manager.
What is OpenAI Ads?
OpenAI Ads is OpenAI's advertising platform for ads in ChatGPT. Advertisers create and manage campaigns in OpenAI Ads Manager, which OpenAI currently labels a beta, or programmatically through the OpenAI Ads Advertiser API, and measure results with the Measurement Pixel and Conversions API.
Is this an official OpenAI MCP server?
No. InsightfulPipe is an independent, hosted MCP server that connects to the OpenAI Ads Advertiser API. InsightfulPipe is not affiliated with OpenAI, and being listed in the ChatGPT app directory does not make it an OpenAI product. OpenAI's Ads developer documentation does not list an official OpenAI Ads MCP server as of September 2026.
Which AI assistants does it work with?
Any AI client that supports remote MCP servers. The setup guide on this page covers Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI and Codex. You can also work with the same connected ad accounts from the terminal with the InsightfulPipe CLI.
Is there a Claude connector for OpenAI Ads?
Yes. In Claude, add https://openai-ads.insightfulmcp.com/ as a custom connector and authorize your InsightfulPipe account. You can also add InsightfulPipe from the Claude Directory, which connects all of your linked accounts at once.
Can I use the OpenAI Ads MCP server with ChatGPT?
Yes. Add the server URL as a custom connector in ChatGPT Developer mode, or add InsightfulPipe from the ChatGPT app directory to connect all of your linked accounts. Developer mode availability depends on your ChatGPT plan.
What OpenAI Ads data can my AI access?
The ad account, campaigns, ad groups and ads with review status, and insights at account, campaign, ad group and ad level with impressions, clicks, spend, CTR, CPC and CPM by hour, day or month. It can also read click-through and view-through conversion insights, pixels and received conversion events, event settings, custom audiences, lead forms, lead sync subscriptions and bulk job results.
Can it create and change OpenAI Ads campaigns?
Yes. It can create and update campaigns, ad groups and ads, run bulk jobs of up to 1,000 operations, upload images from a URL, generate ad previews, update your brand name and favicon, set up pixels and conversion events, send server-side conversion events, manage custom audiences and lead forms, and update product feed availability and titles. New campaigns, ad groups and ads are created paused.
Is it safe to let AI make changes in OpenAI Ads?
New campaigns, ad groups and ads start paused, including bulk creates, and owners, admins and operators choose exactly which actions your AI can use on each ad account; disabled actions are hidden and blocked. Archiving audiences or lead forms and removing audience identifiers stay off by default. Updates can set a campaign, ad group or ad live or archive it permanently, and OpenAI Ads connections use an API key with no Read-only option, so turn off the update actions for any account where agents should not change what is live. Team members with restricted access only get read actions.
Can I manage multiple OpenAI Ads accounts?
Yes. Each OpenAI Ads API key is scoped to one ad account, so you add a key for each account you want to connect. Each connected ad account counts as one connection on your plan, and your assistant can compare them in one conversation.
How does authentication work?
OpenAI Ads uses API keys rather than a sign-in flow. You issue an Ads API key in the Settings tab of OpenAI Ads Manager and add it to InsightfulPipe, and you can add an optional Conversions API key to send server-side events. Your AI client signs in to the MCP server with your InsightfulPipe account and never sees your API keys. You can disconnect an ad account at any time.
Do I need an OpenAI Ads account?
Yes. You need an ad account in OpenAI Ads Manager, which you can sign up for at ads.openai.com, and permission to create an Ads API key for it.
What can't the OpenAI Ads MCP server do?
It cannot create product feeds or upload full catalogs, which happen in OpenAI Ads Manager, and it only uploads images from a public URL. A campaign's bidding type and conversion events cannot be changed after it is created, segment breakdowns depend on what OpenAI enables for your account, and sending conversion events needs a Conversions API key.
How much does the OpenAI Ads MCP server cost?
The OpenAI Ads MCP server is included in every InsightfulPipe plan, together with all other MCP servers and the CLI. Plans start at $29.99/month with a 7-day free trial. See insightfulpipe.com/pricing for current plans.
