Meta Ads CLI
Manage Meta ad accounts from the terminal via API
A command-line tool for Meta's Marketing API that supports campaign creation, bulk operations, and performance insights with structured JSON output. For developers and growth engineers building automated ad workflows on Facebook and Instagram.
The most operationally painful part of running paid media on Meta has always been how manual the platform is by design.
What it is: Meta Ads CLI is an official command-line tool that connects directly to the Meta Marketing API, letting developers create campaigns, manage ad objects, pull performance data, and run bulk operations from the terminal with structured JSON output.
Third-party Meta API tools have existed for years, but they've always carried the tension of being unofficial. Pipeboard, Composio, Adspirer all solve the MCP connectivity problem from outside the platform. The Ads CLI is Meta drawing a direct line from its own developer documentation to automated campaign management, with MCP support baked in. That changes the risk calculus for teams nervous about account integrity when using external automation.
What makes it different: It is the official Meta-native CLI. That matters because it ships with the command reference, tutorials, and creatives management in the same documentation tree as the Marketing API. It is also designed explicitly for AI agent workflows, with JSON output structured for programmatic parsing.
Key features:
Full campaign lifecycle management via terminal (create, update, pause, activate)
Bulk operations across campaigns, ad sets, and ads
Insights API access with date ranges, breakdowns, and attribution windows
Ad creatives and datasets management
MCP compatibility for Claude, ChatGPT, and other AI coding environments
JSON-first output with table format available for human review
Benefits:
Official platform tooling reduces account integrity risk versus third-party connectors
Fits directly into CI/CD workflows, agent pipelines, and scripted automation
Reduces manual Ads Manager dependency for teams managing multiple accounts
Who it's for: Performance marketers and developers at agencies or growth teams who are already automating campaign workflows and want a Meta-native CLI rather than third-party API wrappers.
The timing is interesting: this drops alongside Meta's broader Ads AI Connectors open beta, and directly after months of community reports about Claude Code causing account restrictions when touching the Marketing API without official tooling. A sanctioned CLI changes that equation.
Currently in open beta. Requires developer app setup and system user tokens with ads_management permissions.
