Meta Ads / API Reference
meta_create_ad
Create a Meta ad from a source asset with auto-detection. This is a creation workflow, not an upload-only tool. Prefer the upload-only aliases when the user only wants image_hash or video_id.
This is a write tool: it creates ad in your Meta Ads account. Claude asks you to confirm before it runs.
Ask Claude
You do not call this tool yourself. Ask for the outcome and the client picks the tool:

It takes 3 required and 2 optional parameters.

Before you can call it
