To link to Google Ads in Merchant Center with Claude or ChatGPT, connect your Google Merchant Center account to PaidSync.ai and ask the assistant to link my Merchant Center to Google Ads, which is required for Shopping and Performance Max feeds. It changes your account on the first call, so read the request before you approve.
A write tool requests the link, and a Google Ads admin approves it:
merchant_list_links checks existing links.merchant_create_link links a Google Ads customer ID to the Merchant Center account.merchant_list_links only reads your account. merchant_create_link changes it. That is the full set you need to link to Google Ads.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| merchant_list_links | Checks existing links |
| merchant_create_link | Requests the link |
The admin must approve in Google Ads. The assistant cannot do that.
These steps use Claude to link to Google Ads. PaidSync.ai also works in ChatGPT, and the prompts are the same.
