To schedule Facebook ad set hours with Claude or ChatGPT, tell the assistant which ad set and which days and hours it should run, review the preview, and confirm. PaidSync.ai sets the schedule through the Meta API. Scheduling by hour only works on an ad set with a lifetime budget.
Dayparting limits delivery to the hours when your customers act, for example office hours for a B2B offer. One tool sets it:
set_fb_adset_schedule writes the day and hour blocks for an ad set, after a preview.list_fb_adsets shows each ad set's budget type, so you know which ones can take a schedule.The list reads. set_fb_adset_schedule changes the account.
| Tool | What it needs |
|---|---|
| set_fb_adset_schedule | Changes the account. The ad set ID, as text, and the schedule blocks, each with days and hours. |
| list_fb_adsets | Reads only. Optional: a campaign ID. |
A daily budget ad set cannot take an hourly schedule. Switch it to a lifetime budget first or the schedule will not apply. Hours follow the ad account time zone.
These steps use Claude. PaidSync.ai also works in ChatGPT, so you can schedule Facebook ad set hours there with the same prompts.
Sign up at paidsync.ai, then connect Meta on Meta's own sign-in screen. Know the time zone of your ad account, since the hours use it.
Add PaidSync.ai from Claude's connector directory and sign in. Ask "list my Facebook ad accounts" and choose the one where you want to schedule Facebook ad set hours.
Ask Claude whether the ad set uses a lifetime budget. If not, change that first.
Say the days and hours in plain words, for example Monday to Friday from 9 to 18, and let Claude build the blocks.
Claude runs the schedule as a dry run. Read the blocks, then say yes.
Open the ad set in Ads Manager and read the schedule. Over a week, ask for performance by time to see delivery inside your hours.
