Meta Ads for AI agents

Meta Ads manages advertising campaigns across Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp, from creative and targeting to spend and results reporting. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

03 · HOW IT WORKS

Meta Ads in three steps.

01Your users connect Meta AdsThey sign in to Meta Ads on Arc0 Connect, under your brand, and approve the access you ask for.
02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “create Ad” can wait for the user, and “delete Campaign” can be denied outright.
03Any agent can actYour agent calls Meta Ads through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.

POLICY.TS

await arc0.policies.set('meta_ads', {
  read: 'allow',
  write: 'ask',        // create_ad
  destructive: 'deny',  // delete_campaign
})

# Claude Code: the same connection, one URL
$ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How Meta Ads connects.

Users sign in to Meta Ads on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Meta Ads OAuth app, or bring your own so the Meta Ads consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.

The same Meta Ads connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

07 · FAQ

Meta Ads and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use Meta Ads with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect Meta Ads to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Meta Ads actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect Meta Ads?

Q03

Which Meta Ads actions can my agent take?

67 in total: 54 read, 12 write and 1 destructive, such as “create Ad”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Meta Ads?

Yes. Actions like “delete Campaign” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.

Q05

Can my own backend call Meta Ads too?

Yes. The same Meta Ads connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
