For a simpler setup experience, we offer ready-to-use installers:

👉Download installer -https://gomarble.ai/mcp

- Python 3.10+ installed
- A Google Cloud Platform account
- A Google Ads account with API access
- Go toGoogle Cloud Console
- Create a new project:

- Click "Download JSON" button
- Save file asclient_secret_[long-string].jsonin your project directory

Note:You'll initially get a test token with limited functionality. After testing, you can apply for production access.
- Return to API Center in Google Ads
- Copy your Developer Token(format:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX)

# Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/yourusername/google-ads-mcp-server.git cd google-ads-mcp-server # Create virtual environment (recommended) python3 -m venv .venv source .venv/bin/activate # On Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate # Install dependencies pip install -r requirements.txt

Create a.envfile in your project directory:

# Copy the example file cp .env.example .env

# Required: Google Ads API Developer Token GOOGLE_ADS_DEVELOPER_TOKEN=your_developer_token_here # Required: Path to OAuth credentials JSON file (downloaded from Google Cloud) GOOGLE_ADS_OAUTH_CONFIG_PATH=/full/path/to/your/client_secret_file.json

GOOGLE_ADS_DEVELOPER_TOKEN=ABCDEFG1234567890 GOOGLE_ADS_OAUTH_CONFIG_PATH=/Users/john/google-ads-mcp/client_secret_138737274875-abc123.apps.googleusercontent.com.json

Find your Claude Desktop configuration file:

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

Edit the configuration file and add your Google Ads MCP server:

{ "mcpServers": { "google-ads": { "command": "/full/path/to/your/project/.venv/bin/python", "args": [ "/full/path/to/your/project/server.py" ] } } }

{ "mcpServers": { "google-ads": { "command": "/Users/marble-dev-01/workspace/google_ads_with_fastmcp/.venv/bin/python", "args": [ "/Users/marble-dev-01/workspace/google_ads_with_fastmcp/server.py" ] } } }

- Useabsolute pathsfor all file locations
- On Windows, use forward slashes/or double backslashes\\in paths
- Replaceyour_developer_token_herewith your actual developer token

Close and restart Claude Desktop to load the new configuration.
- Open Claude Desktop
- Try any Google Ads command, for example:

"List all my Google Ads accounts"

- Agoogle_ads_token.jsonfile created in your project directory
- Your Google Ads accounts listed in Claude's response

"List all my Google Ads accounts" "Show me the account details and which ones have active campaigns"

"Show me campaign performance for account 1234567890 in the last 30 days" "Get conversion data for all campaigns in the last week" "Which campaigns have the highest cost per conversion?"

"Generate keyword ideas for 'digital marketing' using account 1234567890" "Find keyword opportunities for 'AI automation' with search volume data" "Research keywords for the page https://example.com/services"

"Run this GAQL query for account 1234567890: SELECT campaign.name, metrics.clicks, metrics.cost_micros FROM campaign WHERE segments.date DURING LAST_7_DAYS" "Get keyword performance data: SELECT ad_group_criterion.keyword.text, metrics.ctr, metrics.average_cpc FROM keyword_view WHERE metrics.impressions > 100"

SELECT campaign.id, campaign.name, metrics.clicks, metrics.impressions, metrics.cost_micros, metrics.conversions, metrics.conversions_value FROM campaign WHERE segments.date DURING LAST_30_DAYS ORDER BY metrics.cost_micros DESC

SELECT campaign.name, ad_group_criterion.keyword.text, ad_group_criterion.keyword.match_type, metrics.ctr, metrics.average_cpc, metrics.quality_score FROM keyword_view WHERE segments.date DURING LAST_7_DAYS AND metrics.impressions > 100 ORDER BY metrics.conversions DESC

SELECT campaign.name, segments.device, metrics.clicks, metrics.cost_micros, metrics.conversions FROM campaign WHERE segments.date DURING LAST_30_DAYS AND campaign.status = 'ENABLED'
