Pinterest Ads for AI agents
Pinterest Ads manages advertising accounts, campaigns, ad groups, and targeting for paid Pinterest promotion. Marketing teams use it to run and report on Pinterest ad spend. 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.
What agents do in Pinterest Ads.
Check campaign performance read-only
Pull ads analytics for a campaign to see spend and results before adjusting budget.
Update a campaign's budget
Adjust a campaign's budget or status once performance data supports the change.
Update ad group targeting with approval
Change an ad group's targeting only after a media buyer approves the new audience.
10 Pinterest Ads actions, graded by risk.
Every Pinterest Ads action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

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

Pinterest Ads and Arc0, answered.
Can I use Pinterest Ads with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

How do users connect Pinterest Ads?
Users sign in to Pinterest Ads on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Pinterest Ads OAuth app, or bring your own so the Pinterest Ads consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.
Which Pinterest Ads actions can my agent take?
10 in total: 7 read, 3 write and 0 destructive, such as “update Ads”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.
Can I make my agent read-only in Pinterest Ads?
Yes. Allow read actions and deny writes in the Pinterest Ads policy. Your agent can still look things up, and any write it attempts is blocked and logged.
Can my own backend call Pinterest Ads too?
Yes. The same Pinterest Ads connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
