• Local OAuth flow (META_APP_ID + META_APP_SECRET)
• stdio MCP transport only
• Python 3.11+
• mcp[cli]==1.26.0
• Meta Marketing API v25.0 by default (META_GRAPH_API_VERSION override supported)

Current contract version: 1.1.0.

pip install armavita-meta-ads-mcp

From source (recommended during development):

uv sync

Run

armavita-meta-ads-mcp

Module entrypoint:

python -m armavita_meta_ads_mcp

Login flow:

armavita-meta-ads-mcp --login

Quick MCP Client Config

Minimal MCP server registration (JSON format used by many clients):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "meta-ads-armavita": {
      "command": "armavita-meta-ads-mcp",
      "env": {
        "META_ACCESS_TOKEN": "EA...",
        "META_GRAPH_API_VERSION": "v25.0"
      }
    }
  }
}

OAuth mode (no direct token in config):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "meta-ads-armavita": {
      "command": "armavita-meta-ads-mcp",
      "env": {
        "META_APP_ID": "YOUR_APP_ID",
        "META_APP_SECRET": "YOUR_APP_SECRET"
      }
    }
  }
}

Then run once to complete login:

armavita-meta-ads-mcp --login

Pagination

Cursor-based pagination is supported on core list/read streams:

• list_ad_accounts, list_campaigns, list_ad_sets, list_ads, list_insights
• list_ad_creatives, search_interests, suggest_interests, search_behaviors, search_demographics, search_geo_locations, search_ads_archive
• Use page_cursor with the paging.cursors.after value from the previous response.
• Responses preserve Meta's native paging object.

Insights Query Notes

• list_insights and create_report support either:
  • date_range as { "since": "YYYY-MM-DD", "until": "YYYY-MM-DD" }, or
  • date_range as a preset (for example last_30d, maximum).
• create_report.comparison_period uses the same format and validation as date_range.
• previous_30d is normalized to last_30d.
• For action metrics, use action_breakdowns (and optional summary_action_breakdowns) instead of mixing action keys into breakdowns.

Security

• Access tokens are redacted from URL fields returned by the server (including nested paging.next URLs).
