This is how to switch ad accounts in Microsoft Ads with AI: connect your Microsoft Ads account to PaidSync.ai, then ask Claude to list my Microsoft Ads accounts and set one as active, with the customer ID that writes need. Both steps only read or select, and neither changes an account.
Agencies reach many accounts under one login, so choose the active one before anything else:
list_ms_accounts lists the accounts across every connected identity with account ID, customer ID, name, number and status.set_active_microsoft_account selects the account that following tools target. Pass the customer ID so writes have the header they need.get_ms_active_account returns the account currently active in the session.list_ms_accounts, set_active_microsoft_account and get_ms_active_account only read your account, so you can switch ad accounts as often as you need.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| list_ms_accounts | Lists the accounts you can use |
| set_active_microsoft_account | Selects the active account |
| get_ms_active_account | Confirms which account is active |
Writes need the customer ID, which the account list provides. Confirm the active account before your first change, and repeat it in your next request as a habit.
These steps use Claude to switch ad accounts in Microsoft Ads. PaidSync.ai also works in ChatGPT, and the prompts are the same.
Register at paidsync.ai and connect Microsoft Ads with Microsoft's own sign-in screen. Use a Microsoft login that can reach the account where you intend to switch ad accounts.
Install PaidSync.ai from Claude's connector directory and sign in. Ask "list my Microsoft Ads accounts" and select the account to switch ad accounts in.
Ask for the accounts and note the account ID and customer ID of each.
