This is how to find your ad identity in TikTok Ads with AI: connect your TikTok Ads account to PaidSync.ai, then ask Claude to list the identities my ads can post as, and say which of them is usable. It only reads and changes nothing.

Which Tools Do the Work

A TikTok ad is posted as an identity. When ad creation complains about it, start here:

list_tiktok_identities only reads your account. create_tiktok_ad changes it. Claude calls these to find your ad identity.

How the Workflow Is Built

ToolWhat it does
list_tiktok_identitiesLists the identities and their status
create_tiktok_adUses the identity in the ad

A custom identity is being retired by TikTok for non-Spark ads, so a linked TikTok account is the safe choice. If none is usable, link an account in TikTok Ads Manager first.

How to Find Your Ad Identity in TikTok Ads With Claude in 5 Steps

These steps use Claude to find your ad identity in TikTok Ads. In the ChatGPT app PaidSync.ai is report-only for TikTok Ads, so the change itself runs in Claude or another MCP client.

1

Connect TikTok Ads to PaidSync.ai

Start at paidsync.ai, then link TikTok Ads through TikTok's own sign-in screen. Choose the advertiser accounts PaidSync.ai may manage at the consent step, including the one where you plan to find your ad identity.

2

Add PaidSync.ai to Claude

Install PaidSync.ai from Claude's connector directory and sign in. Ask "list my TikTok advertisers" and select the account to find your ad identity in.

3

List the identities

Ask for the identities on the active advertiser.

4

Find the usable one

Read which identity is marked usable and which are not.

5

Fix a gap

If none is usable, link a TikTok account to the advertiser in TikTok and list again.

How to Check the Result

List again after linking and confirm an identity is marked usable.

Use these two prompts to find your ad identity in TikTok Ads, in this order.

"List the identities my TikTok ads can be posted as, with which ones are usable."
Reads your account and changes nothing.
"Which identity will create_tiktok_ad use for advertiser 7012345678901234567?"
Reads your account and changes nothing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find your ad identity in TikTok Ads?

A connected TikTok advertiser account.
