This is how to create a lead gen ad in LinkedIn Ads with AI: connect your LinkedIn Ads account to PaidSync.ai, then ask Claude to create an ad that opens a lead gen form, with the button set to the action you choose. The ad is created as a draft that does not serve, and the build previews first.

Which Tools Do the Work

A lead gen ad needs three things, a lead generation campaign, a form and the creative:

list_linkedin_lead_forms and list_linkedin_campaigns only read your account. create_linkedin_ad changes it. Claude calls these to create a lead gen ad.

How the Workflow Is Built

ToolWhat it does
list_linkedin_lead_formsFinds the form identifier
list_linkedin_campaignsConfirms the campaign objective
create_linkedin_adBuilds the ad and attaches the form

A lead generation campaign needs the form identifier and a button. The landing link is optional here, but the headline needs an external link to show, so add one if the headline matters.

How to Create a Lead Gen Ad in LinkedIn Ads With Claude in 5 Steps

These steps use Claude to create a lead gen ad in LinkedIn Ads. In the ChatGPT app PaidSync.ai is report-only for LinkedIn Ads, so the change itself runs in Claude or another MCP client.

1

Connect LinkedIn Ads to PaidSync.ai

Create a free account at paidsync.ai and approve LinkedIn Ads on LinkedIn's own sign-in screen. Use a LinkedIn login that has access to the ad account where you will create a lead gen ad.

2

Add PaidSync.ai to Claude

Add PaidSync.ai from Claude's connector directory and sign in. Ask "list my LinkedIn ad accounts" and choose the one to create a lead gen ad in.

3

Find the form

List the forms and copy the identifier of the published one you want.

4

Confirm the campaign

Check that the campaign you target has the lead generation objective.

5

Create and review

Ask for the ad with the form identifier and button, read the preview and confirm.

How to Check the Result

Read the ad back and confirm it is attached to the right campaign, shows the right button and is not held in review.

Use these two prompts to create a lead gen ad in LinkedIn Ads, in this order.

"List my lead gen forms and show the identifier of the one called Q4 Webinar Signup."
Reads your account and changes nothing.
"Create a lead gen ad in campaign 123456789 using that form with text "Save your seat" and the button Register, as a preview."
Comes back as a preview before it is applied.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I create a lead gen ad in LinkedIn Ads?

In Campaign Manager you pick the form while you build the ad. With PaidSync.ai, ask Claude to look up the form and attach it to a new ad.

Which campaigns accept a lead gen ad?

Lead generation campaigns do, and the tool refuses to build one without a form identifier and a button.

Can ChatGPT create a lead gen ad in LinkedIn Ads?

Not to create a lead gen ad itself. In the ChatGPT app PaidSync.ai reads and reports on LinkedIn Ads but is report-only, so run the change in Claude or another MCP client. ChatGPT can still read the account first.

What do I need before I create a lead gen ad in LinkedIn Ads?

A connected LinkedIn ad account, a lead generation campaign and a published lead form.
