To search Facebook location targeting with Claude or ChatGPT, name the place and the assistant searches Meta's locations. PaidSync.ai returns the matching countries, regions, cities or zip codes with their keys. The keys are what an ad set uses, so this saves you guessing at spellings and codes.

Why Location Keys Matter

Meta targets places by key, not by name. Looking the key up first avoids a rejected or wrong ad set:

Both tools only read.

What Each Tool Needs

ToolWhat it needs
search_fb_locationsReads only. A place name. Optional: location types, a country code and a limit.
get_fb_locale_codesReads only. Optional: a word to filter languages.

Several places share a name. Always check the country on the result before you use a key.

1

Connect Meta Ads to PaidSync.ai

Register at paidsync.ai and sign in to Facebook when Meta asks. Know the countries and cities you want.

2

Add PaidSync.ai to Claude

Find PaidSync.ai in Claude's connector directory, add it and sign in. Ask for your Facebook ad accounts, then name the one to use when you search Facebook location targeting.

3

Give Claude the city or region and its country.

4

Read the matches

Check the type and country of each result.
