# Google Ads MCP server

Checked September 2026.

Google's open-source Google Ads server lists the accounts a login can reach and runs Google Ads Query Language reports over campaign, ad group, keyword, budget, and conversion data for Search, Shopping, video, and Performance Max campaigns. It answers which campaigns spent the most or how performance splits by device; it cannot change a bid or pause a campaign.

## Google Ads MCP options

Every fact in a row comes from the publisher's own documentation.

| Option | Audience | Reads or changes | Sign-in | Setup |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Google Ads MCP server Google | Developers | Lists the Google Ads accounts you can access and runs Google Ads Query Language searches over campaigns, budgets, status, and metrics; it cannot change bids, pause campaigns, or create assets.

## One MCP server per tool still can't answer a cross-channel question.

Each server brings its own sign-in, its own definition of revenue, and data your assistant can't join to the rest.

SourceMedium joins Google Ads with the rest of your store, ad, subscription, and returns data, keeps one set of maintained definitions, and gives ChatGPT, Claude, and other assistants a single connection to all of it.
