This is how to change campaign budget in Microsoft Ads with AI: connect your Microsoft Ads account to PaidSync.ai, then ask Claude to change the budget of a campaign, and verify it by reading it back. The change previews first and needs your explicit confirmation.

Which Tools Do the Work

The budget tool changes only the amount, and it says which kind of budget it set:

list_ms_campaigns and get_ms_performance only read your account. update_ms_campaign_budget changes it. Claude calls these to change campaign budget.

How the Workflow Is Built

ToolWhat it does
list_ms_campaignsShows the current budget
get_ms_performanceGives the results behind the change
update_ms_campaign_budgetApplies the budget after the preview

Microsoft uses the same field for the daily and the lifetime amount, and the response names which one was set. Budget in account currency, so write the amount in that currency.
