Call ads.create_smart_campaign

Prepare a Google Ads Smart campaign — 'set up a smart campaign', 'create a google smart campaign'. Create a Google Ads SMART campaign for this brand from its saved settings. Call it on the ask: it raises the approval card, which is the operator's confirmation, and nothing is created unless they approve it there. ⚠️ It is then created PAUSED and stays paused — you cannot start it, and nothing here spends the budget. Say so when you report it, and tell the operator that starting it is their decision. The business details and ad copy come from the brand's saved settings, not from you: if they are missing the create is refused naming every field, and ads.google_settings is where they are filled in. Reuse the same idempotency_key on a retry — a fresh key mints a second campaign. Not for a Performance Max campaign — that is ads.create_pmax_campaign. Over the API it answers in two calls: without confirmation_id it proposes — says what would happen, returns a confirmation_id and changes, spends and sends nothing; the same arguments again with that confirmation_id, on a member's own API key, do it.

Every result names the workspace it ran in. Say which workspace the answer is about. When the account has more than one workspace and none is selected, this tool refuses with workspace_ambiguous and lists the choices — offer them, never pick one.

Headers

x-request-idstring

Your own id for this request, echoed back and recorded on the audit trail. 1–128 characters from A–Z a–z 0–9 . _ : -, starting with a letter or digit; anything else is replaced by a generated id.

Idempotency-Keystring required

Your key for this write: send the same key when you retry and the first result comes back instead of a second action. Keys are honoured for at least 24 hours. 1–200 visible ASCII characters. Replaces the idempotency_key body field, which still works until 2026-12-31; this action needs a key on one of the two, and the header is the one to send.

Request body

namestring required

What the campaign is called.

daily_budget_usd_centsinteger required

The DAILY budget, in cents. 5000 is fifty dollars a day.

start_atstring nullable

ISO-8601, optional.

end_atstring nullable

ISO-8601, optional.

idempotency_keystring

Deprecated on REST: send the Idempotency-Key header instead. Still accepted until 2026-12-31; if both are sent they must match.

confirmation_idstring uuid

Omit to propose: the first call says what would happen, returns a confirmation_id and changes nothing. To go ahead, send the same arguments again with that confirmation_id, on a member's own API key; a service account's key can propose but never confirm.

workspacestring

Which workspace to run in — its slug. Omit to use your default. With more than one reachable workspace and no default, the call is refused and the choices are listed.

Response

The call was admitted and dispatched. ok says whether the tool succeeded — a refusal the tool itself produced is still a 200, exactly as it is a successful JSON-RPC result over MCP.
