That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
Pinterest Ads MCP Server
Connect Pinterest Ads to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex or any AI app that supports MCP. AdKit hosts the server, so you only add an address to your AI app.
MCP address:
https://mcp.adkit.so/pinterest-adsWebsite: Pinterest Ads MCP by AdKit
Beta: Your AI writes Pinterest API requests and AdKit sends them. It can do what the API allows, with more steps than on Meta or Google. Turn on Advanced Platform Access in your AdKit project (Agent Permissions) first.
Every change is saved as a draft first, so your AI can't spend money on its own. Nothing goes live on Pinterest Ads until you approve it.

What you can do
Connect your Pinterest ad accounts
Read campaigns, ad groups, ads and analytics through the Pinterest API
Save campaign changes as drafts, then publish them after you approve

Example prompts
"Which Pinterest campaigns had the best cost per click last month?"
"Pause the ad groups that spent over $100 with no conversions. Save it as a draft."
Set up
You need an AdKit account. On first use, you sign in to AdKit and connect your Pinterest Ads account.
There are two ways to connect:
All platforms: the main AdKit connector. One connection for Google, Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, Microsoft, Reddit, X and Pinterest. Pick this if you run ads on more than Pinterest Ads.
Pinterest Ads only: the address above. Your AI only sees the Pinterest Ads tools.
Claude (web and desktop)
All platforms: install AdKit from the Claude directory, in one click.
Pinterest Ads only: Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → paste

FAQ
What is the Pinterest Ads MCP server?
A hosted MCP server from AdKit. It lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex and other AI apps work on your Pinterest Ads account: Pinterest campaigns, ad groups, ads and analytics through its API, in beta.
Is the Pinterest Ads MCP server free?
It is included in every AdKit plan. Plans start at $29 a month, with a 7-day free trial. See pricing.
Can my AI change my Pinterest Ads without asking me?
No. Every create, edit or pause is saved as a draft. It goes live only after you approve it, on AdKit's Draft Approval page or by telling your AI to publish it.
Do I need an API key or a developer token?
No. You sign in to AdKit in your browser and connect your Pinterest Ads account there. You also need to turn on Advanced Platform Access in your AdKit project (Agent Permissions), because this beta sends requests through the platform API.
Can I manage several Pinterest Ads accounts?
Yes. Connect several accounts and keep each client in its own AdKit project. How many projects you get depends on your plan.
Which AI apps does it work with?
Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Codex and any app that supports remote MCP servers with OAuth sign-in.
