To create a video campaign in Google Ads with Claude or ChatGPT, connect your Google Ads account to PaidSync.ai and ask the assistant to create a video campaign from a YouTube video, which builds the budget, campaign, ad group and video ad together. It is one atomic write, and the campaign is created paused. The account needs a linked YouTube channel.

Which Tools Do the Work

A video campaign runs your YouTube video as an ad. PaidSync.ai builds the whole campaign in one call from a video asset:

generate_reach_forecast only reads your account. create_youtube_video_asset and create_video_campaign change it.

How the Workflow Is Built

ToolWhat it does
create_youtube_video_assetTurns a YouTube ID into an asset
create_video_campaignBuilds the paused video campaign
generate_reach_forecastEstimates reach before you commit budget

Google rejects the write if no YouTube channel is linked to the account, so link it first. Pick the sub-type deliberately. Non-skippable ads are 15 seconds, and the reach sub-type optimizes for a frequency goal you set.

How to Create a Video Campaign in Google Ads With Claude in 5 Steps

These steps use Claude to create a video campaign. PaidSync.ai also works in ChatGPT, and the prompts are the same.

1

Connect Google Ads to PaidSync.ai

Sign up at paidsync.ai, then connect Google Ads on Google's own sign-in screen. There is no developer token and no Google Cloud project. Use the Google login that has access to the account where you want to create a video campaign.

2

Add PaidSync.ai to Claude

Open Claude's connector directory, add PaidSync.ai and sign in. Ask "list my Google Ads accounts", then pick the account where you will create a video campaign.

3

Link a channel and pick a video

Make sure a YouTube channel is linked to the Google Ads account, then choose the video and note its ID.

4

Create the asset

Ask the assistant to create a video asset from the YouTube ID with a clear asset name.

5

Create the campaign

Choose the sub-type, budget and landing page, and ask for create_video_campaign. Review the preview and enable only when ready.

How to Check the Result

Read the campaign details and check it is paused with the right video and sub-type. After you enable it, watch views and cost per view for a few days.

Use these two prompts to create a video campaign, in this order.

"Create a video asset from the YouTube video ID dQw4w9WgXcQ and call it Brand Film."
Comes back as a preview before it is applied.
"Create a non-skippable video campaign called Brand Film Reach with a daily budget of 30, the Brand Film asset and the final URL https://example.com."
Comes back as a preview before it is applied.
