Required Credentials

Credential	Where to Get	Used For	OAuth Scope
META_ACCESS_TOKEN	Meta Developer Console → Graph API Explorer → Generate Token	All Meta Marketing API calls	`ads_management` (read+write)
META_AD_ACCOUNT_ID	Ads Manager URL: `adsmanager.facebook.com/act_XXXXXXXXX`	All campaign operations	—

META_APP_ID and META_APP_SECRET are not needed — the access token alone is sufficient for all API operations.

How to Call the Meta API

Use exec + curl with your META_ACCESS_TOKEN. All requests go to https://graph.facebook.com/v21.0/.

Example structure:

curl -X POST "https://graph.facebook.com/v21.0/act_`{{AD_ACCOUNT_ID}}`/campaigns" \
  -d "access_token=`{{META_ACCESS_TOKEN}}`" \
  -d "name=My Campaign" \
  -d "objective=LEADS" \
  -d "status=PAUSED"

When to Use

When user wants to launch a new campaign, make changes to an existing one, or do any campaign management task. Requires META_ACCESS_TOKEN and META_AD_ACCOUNT_ID.

Step 1: Authenticate

Required credentials:

META_ACCESS_TOKEN — from Meta Developer Console (Graph API Explorer)
META_AD_ACCOUNT_ID — format: act_XXXXXXXXX (from Ads Manager URL)

If credentials are not yet configured: Guide the user to get them:

Access Token: Go to developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer → select App → Generate Token → copy
Ad Account ID: adsmanager.facebook.com → Account Settings → find act_XXXXXXXXX

Store credentials securely. Never paste tokens into open conversation unless absolutely necessary.

Step 2: Create New Campaign

Campaign Level

POST to /act_{{AD_ACCOUNT_ID}}/campaigns

objective: LEADS / PURCHASE / LINK_CLICK / AWARENESS
status: PAUSED (create paused, activate after review)
name: [Descriptive name: Product + Audience + Date]
budget_type: DAILY or LIFETIME

Adset Level

POST to /act_{{AD_ACCOUNT_ID}}/adsets

campaign_id: [From step above]
status: PAUSED
optimization_goal: corresponds to campaign objective
billing_event: IMPRESSIONS / LINK_CLICK / etc.
bid_amount: [If using manual bid]
targeting: age, gender, geo, interests, behaviors
daily_budget or lifetime_budget

Creative / Ad Level

Upload image first: POST /act_{{AD_ACCOUNT_ID}}/adimages Then reference image_hash in creative.

POST to /act_{{AD_ACCOUNT_ID}}/ads

adset_id: [From adset step]
creative: reference to adcreative
status: PAUSED

Step 3: Pre-flight Checklist — Before Activating

Before setting status to ACTIVE, verify all of the following:

Campaign status is PAUSED — never launch in ACTIVE status; always review first
Budget confirmed with user — confirm the daily budget amount before going live
Targeting is appropriate — not too broad (> 1M people is too broad for interest-based) or too narrow (< 100K people may not have enough volume)
Creative passed Quality Check — confirm the ad creative has been reviewed
Pixel and CAPI installed — verify Meta pixel is firing and CAPI is connected
Bid strategy matches the objective — lowest cost for testing, cost cap for CPL control, target cost for scaling

Step 4: Campaign Management Tasks

Pause / Activate

PATCH /act_{{AD_ACCOUNT_ID}}/adsets?ids=[ADSET_ID] Set status to PAUSED or ACTIVE.

Change Budget

PATCH /act_{{AD_ACCOUNT_ID}}/adsets?ids=[ADSET_ID] Set new daily_budget or lifetime_budget. Rule: Change by max 20% per adjustment to avoid disrupting learning.

Check Campaign List

GET /act_{{AD_ACCOUNT_ID}}/campaigns?fields=id,name,status,objective,daily_budget

Get Performance

GET /act_{{AD_ACCOUNT_ID}}/insights?fields=spend,impressions,clicks,results,cpc,cpm,ctr&level=[campaign|adset|ad]&time_range={{'since':'YYYY-MM-DD','until':'YYYY-MM-DD'}}

Duplicate / Clone Campaign

When you have a winner campaign and want to replicate it to a new audience, geo, or offer, follow these 6 steps:

Step 1: Get source campaign structure

GET https://graph.facebook.com/v21.0/[CAMPAIGN_ID]?fields=id,name,status,objective,daily_budget&access_token=[TOKEN]

Step 2: Get source adsets

GET https://graph.facebook.com/v21.0/[ADSET_ID]?fields=id,name,status,optimization_goal,targeting,daily_budget,bid_amount&access_token=[TOKEN]

Step 3: Get source ads

GET https://graph.facebook.com/v21.0/[AD_ID]?fields=id,name,status,creative&access_token=[TOKEN]

Step 4: Create new campaign (PAUSED)

POST https://graph.facebook.com/v21.0/act_[AD_ACCOUNT_ID]/campaigns
  access_token=[TOKEN]
  name=[NEW_NAME — e.g. "Didoo AI — US — Interest — 2026-04-14"]
  objective=[SAME AS SOURCE]
  status=PAUSED
  budget_type=DAILY

Step 5: Create new adset(s) with modified targeting/budget

POST https://graph.facebook.com/v21.0/act_[AD_ACCOUNT_ID]/adsets
  access_token=[TOKEN]
  campaign_id=[NEW CAMPAIGN ID]
  name=[NEW ADSET NAME]
  optimization_goal=[SAME AS SOURCE — e.g. LEAD_GENERATION]
  targeting=[MODIFIED — change geo, age, interests, etc.]
  daily_budget=[NEW BUDGET — integer in cents, e.g. 5000 = $50/day]
  status=PAUSED

Step 6: Create new ad(s)

POST https://graph.facebook.com/v21.0/act_[AD_ACCOUNT_ID]/ads
  access_token=[TOKEN]
  adset_id=[NEW ADSET ID]
  name=[NEW AD NAME]
  creative=`{{'creative_id': '[NEW_CREATIVE_ID]'}}`
  status=PAUSED

Review BEFORE activating:

Verify targeting is correct for the new audience
Confirm budget is realistic
Review creative and copy
Set status to ACTIVE only after review

Step 5: Common Issues

Issue	Check
Campaign not delivering	Is status ACTIVE? Is budget more than $5/day? Is targeting too narrow?
Ads in Learning Limited	Need ~50 results/week to exit; increase budget or consolidate adsets
High frequency	Expand audience or rotate new creative
Low CTR	Test new creative; check if audience matches the hook
Cost per result too high	Check if budget is realistic; test narrower targeting

Output Rules

Always confirm what was done: "Campaign created in PAUSED status. Ready to review before I activate it."
After any change, summarize what changed and what to expect
If user asks for a campaign list, format as a readable table

Security Rules

Never log or print access tokens in plain text
Store credentials in platform's secret management only
Only use credentials for Meta Marketing API — never for other purposes

Key Numbers to Know

Budgets in cents (5000 = $50.00) in API calls
Ad Account ID format: act_XXXXXXXXX
Minimum viable daily budget for learning: ~$10–15/day per adset
Need ~50 results per week per adset to exit learning phase
