## Introduction

### How to connect Microsoft Advertising MCP with ChatGPT
[ChatGPT](https://chatgpt.com/) can take action across your apps and files, stay with a project for hours, and turn a goal into finished materials like sheets, slides, and docs, not just answers.
In this guide, I will explain the easiest and most secure way to connect your Microsoft Advertising account to ChatGPT via Composio Connect, so it can list campaigns, create ad groups, update bids, run reports, and manage keywords through natural language commands without ever putting your account credentials at risk.

## Also integrate Microsoft Advertising with

- [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_advertising/framework/hermes-agent)
- [Atomic Agent](https://composio.dev/toolkits/microsoft_advertising/framework/atomic-agent)

## TL;DR

### Why use Composio over default connectors?
- Apps with read and write access. Default connectors mostly can read your data. Composio's Microsoft Advertising integration lets ChatGPT take actions like creating drafts, sending updates, labeling records, and more.
- 1,500+ SaaS toolkits out of the box. Composio gives you instant access to a vast catalog of pre-built connectors, from Gmail and Slack to Notion, Linear, and Salesforce.
- One MCP server for every app. Connect any of your applications on demand through a single endpoint, rather than juggling a separate server for each app.
- Smart, context-aware tool loading. Unlike traditional MCP servers that dump every available tool into the LLM context window, Composio searches for and loads only the tools relevant to the task at hand.
- Cross-app automation. Chain actions across multiple apps in a single run - fetch a thread, summarize it in Notion, and post highlights to Slack without leaving the conversation.

## Connect Microsoft Advertising to ChatGPT

### Prerequisites
- A ChatGPT account. We will use the [ChatGPT desktop app](https://openai.com/chatgpt/download/), and the steps are the same on the web.
- Access to the Microsoft Advertising workspace you want to connect.
- [Composio plugin](https://dashboard.composio.dev/login?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_template&utm_campaign=chatgpt&utm_content=composio_connect&next=%2F~%2Forg%2Fconnect%2Fclients%2Fchatgpt).
Note: Composio connects through OAuth. You will be asked to sign in and approve specific permissions. Review the permission screen carefully if you are using a work account.
### Step-by-step: Connect Microsoft Advertising to ChatGPT
### 1. Install the Composio plugin
Click the button. ChatGPT opens the Composio plugin page. Click Install plugin.
[Install in ChatGPT](https://chatgpt.com/plugins/plugin_asdk_app_6a58503580c08191b78cc5bdaf4eba6e)
You can also find it inside ChatGPT: go to Settings, open Plugins, search the marketplace for Composio, and click Install plugin.
### 2. Authenticate
After you install, ChatGPT asks you to authenticate with Composio. Log in and click Allow access to authorize ChatGPT to use your Composio account.
### 3. Start using Composio
That is it. Composio tools are now available in ChatGPT. Type @Composio followed by your request, for example @Composio find unread Microsoft Advertising messages and summarize them, and it will run the actions you authorize. On first use it asks you to authorize Microsoft Advertising.
### Option 2: Add Composio as an MCP server
If you cannot use the plugin marketplace, add Composio as a custom MCP server instead.
### 1. Open the MCP settings
In ChatGPT, go to Settings and open the Plugins section. Inside the Plugins page, click the MCP tab.
### 2. Add the server
Click Add server. In the Name field enter Composio, for Type select Streamable HTTP, and in the URL field paste the Composio MCP server URL:

```

## What is the Microsoft Advertising MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Microsoft Advertising MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Microsoft Advertising account. It provides structured and secure access to your customers, advertiser accounts, campaigns, ad groups, and performance reports, so your agent can find accounts, create campaigns and ad groups, update or activate advertising assets, and request performance reports on your behalf.
- Account and customer discovery: Have your agent list accessible customers and advertiser accounts, then identify the accounts available for campaign work.
- Campaign management: Instruct your agent to list, create, update, activate, or delete search campaigns in a Microsoft Advertising account.
- Ad group management: Let the agent list, create, update, activate, or delete search ad groups within a campaign.
- Performance reporting: Direct your agent to request an account performance report and check an existing report request.
- Advertising user access: Have your agent retrieve the connected Microsoft Advertising user and review accessible customer and account roles.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `MICROSOFT_ADVERTISING_ACTIVATE_AD_GROUPS` | Activate Ad Groups | Activate up to 1,000 ad groups in a Microsoft Advertising campaign. WARNING: Activation can immediately make eligible ads deliver and incur spend when the parent campaign, bids, targeting, and ads permit delivery. Verify the selected IDs and campaign configuration before calling. Inspect partial_errors because Microsoft can accept the request while rejecting individual activations. |
| `MICROSOFT_ADVERTISING_ACTIVATE_CAMPAIGNS` | Activate Campaigns | Activate 1 to 100 Microsoft Advertising campaigns. This can immediately make configured ads eligible for delivery and cause the account to incur ad spend. Inspect partial_errors because Microsoft can accept the request while rejecting individual campaign activations. |
| `MICROSOFT_ADVERTISING_CREATE_SEARCH_AD_GROUPS` | Create Search Ad Groups | Create up to 1,000 Search ad groups under a Microsoft Advertising campaign. Ad groups default to Paused. HTTP success can include failed items, represented by null ad_group_ids and indexed partial_errors. |
| `MICROSOFT_ADVERTISING_CREATE_SEARCH_CAMPAIGNS` | Create Search Campaigns | Create up to 100 Search campaigns with unshared budgets in a Microsoft Advertising account. Campaigns default to Paused. HTTP success can include failed items, represented by null campaign_ids and indexed partial_errors. |
| `MICROSOFT_ADVERTISING_DELETE_AD_GROUPS` | Delete Ad Groups | Permanently delete 1 to 1,000 ad groups from a Microsoft Advertising campaign. This destructive operation cannot be undone. A successful HTTP response can still contain item-level failures in partial_errors. |
| `MICROSOFT_ADVERTISING_DELETE_CAMPAIGNS` | Delete Campaigns | Permanently delete 1 to 100 campaigns from a Microsoft Advertising account. This destructive operation cannot be undone. A successful HTTP response can still contain item-level failures, which are preserved in partial_errors. |
| `MICROSOFT_ADVERTISING_GENERATE_ACCOUNT_PERFORMANCE_REPORT` | Generate Account Performance Report | Submit an account-performance report without polling, or check an existing report_request_id once. A submission returns Pending promptly; wait 2 to 15 minutes before checking that ID again until Success. Does not download the ZIP. |
| `MICROSOFT_ADVERTISING_GET_CURRENT_USER` | Get Current Advertising User | Return the connected Microsoft Advertising user and their customer/account roles; optionally look up another accessible user by ID. |
| `MICROSOFT_ADVERTISING_LIST_ACCOUNTS` | List Advertiser Accounts | Return advertiser accounts accessible under a customer, including lifecycle and pause state needed before campaign work. |
| `MICROSOFT_ADVERTISING_LIST_AD_GROUPS` | List Ad Groups | Return ad groups in a Microsoft Advertising campaign. Omit ad_group_ids to use the campaign-wide route, or supply up to 1,000 IDs to use Microsoft's ID-filtered route. ID-filtered responses preserve nullable ad-group slots and partial_errors instead of treating HTTP 200 as complete success. |
| `MICROSOFT_ADVERTISING_LIST_CAMPAIGNS` | List Campaigns | Return campaigns in a Microsoft Advertising account. Omit campaign_ids to use the account-wide route, or supply up to 100 IDs to use Microsoft's ID-filtered route. ID-filtered responses preserve nullable campaign slots and matching partial_errors instead of treating HTTP 200 as complete success. |
| `MICROSOFT_ADVERTISING_LIST_CUSTOMERS` | List Accessible Customers | Return Microsoft Advertising customers accessible to the connected user, optionally filtered by a case-insensitive name prefix. |
| `MICROSOFT_ADVERTISING_UPDATE_AD_GROUPS` | Update Ad Groups | Partially update up to 1,000 ad groups in a Microsoft Advertising campaign. Only supplied fields are sent, so omitted settings remain unchanged. This action is financially consequential: increasing a CPC bid or expanding network reach can increase spend on an active ad group. Inspect partial_errors because Microsoft can accept the request while rejecting individual ad-group patches. |
| `MICROSOFT_ADVERTISING_UPDATE_CAMPAIGNS` | Update Campaigns | Partially update up to 100 campaigns in a Microsoft Advertising account. Only supplied fields are sent, so omitted settings remain unchanged. This action is financially consequential: increasing a budget can increase spend on an active campaign. It can pause campaigns but cannot activate them; use ACTIVATE_CAMPAIGNS for activation. Inspect partial_errors because Microsoft can accept the request while rejecting individual campaign patches. |

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Microsoft Advertising MCP?

With a standalone Microsoft Advertising MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Microsoft Advertising tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Microsoft Advertising and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with ChatGPT?

Yes, you can. ChatGPT fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Microsoft Advertising tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Microsoft Advertising while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Microsoft Advertising scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Microsoft Advertising data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
