This is how to upload an image from a file in LinkedIn Ads with AI: connect your LinkedIn Ads account to PaidSync.ai, then ask Claude to give me an upload link for an image file, so you can send a local file to your LinkedIn ad account. It returns a one-time link, and the image reaches your account only when you send the file to it.
The standard upload takes a public link. When your image is only on your computer, use the upload link tool instead:
create_linkedin_image_upload_url returns a one-time link for uploading a JPEG, PNG or GIF file of up to 5 MB straight to the active ad account.upload_linkedin_image uploads an image from a public link instead, when you have one.create_linkedin_ad uses the uploaded image identifier in a new ad.create_linkedin_image_upload_url, upload_linkedin_image and create_linkedin_ad change it. Claude calls these to upload an image from a file.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| create_linkedin_image_upload_url | Returns the one-time upload link |
| upload_linkedin_image | Uploads from a public link |
| create_linkedin_ad | Uses the image in an ad |
You send the raw bytes of the file to the one-time link yourself. Once the upload succeeds, pass the image identifier to the ad tool. For an image that is already public, skip the link and use the standard upload.
These steps use Claude to upload an image from a file in LinkedIn Ads. In the ChatGPT app PaidSync.ai is report-only for LinkedIn Ads, so the change itself runs in Claude or another MCP client.
Start at paidsync.ai, then link LinkedIn Ads through LinkedIn's own sign-in screen. Use a LinkedIn login that has access to the ad account where you plan to upload an image from a file.
Install PaidSync.ai from Claude's connector directory and sign in. Ask "list my LinkedIn ad accounts" and select the account to upload an image from a file in.
Confirm the file is a JPEG, PNG or GIF and under 5 MB.
Ask the assistant for an upload link for the active ad account.
Upload the file to that link, then give the resulting image identifier to your ad request.
Create the ad as a preview with the identifier and confirm the image appears in the ad details.
Use these two prompts to upload an image from a file in LinkedIn Ads, in this order.
create_linkedin_ad runs as a preview by default, so you see the change before it is applied when you upload an image from a file.create_linkedin_image_upload_url, upload_linkedin_image and create_linkedin_ad run to upload an image from a file.create_linkedin_image_upload_url, upload_linkedin_image and create_linkedin_ad run in Claude or another MCP client when you upload an image from a file. Tokens are encrypted at rest.Every LinkedIn Ads tool PaidSync.ai offers is on the LinkedIn Ads MCP Server page, including the tools used to upload an image from a file.
