# Resume a TikTok ad

`POST /api/v1/tools/tiktok_resume_ad/execute`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://adako.ai`
- URL: `https://adako.ai/api/v1/tools/tiktok_resume_ad/execute`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Sets one TikTok ad back to ENABLE so it can deliver again. Real money starts being spent as soon as TikTok approves delivery.
Use when: the user has reviewed something paused — often something this server created — and wants it live.
Do not resume without telling the user the budget first: on TikTok the daily budget applies from that moment, and a ad resumed on a Friday evening spends the weekend.
Do not assume ENABLE means delivering. Check the read-back: an ad still in review, a parent that is paused, an exhausted budget or a schedule that has passed will all keep an enabled ad at zero, and the delivery status in the read-back says which.
Returns the ad read back from TikTok, including its budget and delivery status.

## Headers

- `Idempotency-Key` string

## Request body

- object
  - `arguments` object, required
    - `advertiser_id` string: TikTok advertiser id (a long numeric string). Only needed when the user has authorised more than one advertiser. Omit it to use the primary one.
    - `ad_id` string, required: The ad to act on, from tiktok_list_ads.
    - `idempotency_key` string: Optional caller-supplied key; identical keys never execute twice.
    - `raw_data` boolean: Return compact JSON only (no markdown). Use when you will compute on the result.

## Response `200`
