snapchat get mobile apps

snapchat_get_mobile_apps
Read-onlyIdempotent

Fetch Snap App IDs for a chosen ad account to prepare app promotion campaigns and mobile retargeting audiences.

Instructions

Read Snap App IDs associated with the selected ad account before creating app promotion campaigns or mobile retargeting audiences.

Tool call template

Replace each placeholder with a value matching the input schema. Only required parameters are included; add optional parameters as needed.

{
  "id": 1,
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

  "params": {
    "arguments": {
      "adAccountId": "<adAccountId>"
    },
    "name": "snapchat_get_mobile_apps"
  }
}

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
adAccountIdYesSnapchat ad account UUID listed in SNAPCHAT_ADS_ACCOUNT_IDS; never an organization ID.

Output Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior3/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered elsewhere. The description adds useful workflow context (this is a prerequisite lookup for app-promotion/retargeting setup), but says nothing extra about scoping, result cardinality, or rate/auth behavior beyond the annotations.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

One sentence, front-loaded with the verb and resource, with the timing rationale appended. Every clause carries information and there is no filler.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With an output schema handling return values, full schema coverage on the single parameter, and annotations covering safety, the description supplies the remaining piece an agent needs: what the tool retrieves and why/when to call it. Slightly more detail on result scope would make it fully self-sufficient, but nothing essential is missing.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100% and the single adAccountId parameter is fully documented in the schema, including the warning that it is a Snapchat ad account UUID and not an organization ID. The description only echoes the 'selected ad account' framing, adding no format or constraint detail beyond the schema, so the baseline of 3 applies.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description gives a specific verb ('Read') and resource ('Snap App IDs associated with the selected ad account'), which is clearly distinct from the campaign, adsquad, creative, and targeting siblings. It stops short of explicitly contrasting with any named sibling, but the resource itself is unambiguous.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

It states a concrete usage context: call this before creating app promotion campaigns or mobile retargeting audiences. That tells the agent when the tool is relevant, though it does not name alternatives or state exclusions (e.g., when another apps-related lookup should be used instead).

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
