How to Connect X Ads (Twitter Ads) to ChatGPT

X Ads ChatGPT

To connect X Ads (Twitter Ads) to ChatGPT, add the PaidSync app in ChatGPT, sign in with your PaidSync login, then ask ChatGPT to connect X and authorize PaidSync on X's own sign-in screen. PaidSync is the pick because that one sign-in gives ChatGPT 14 X Ads tools: it reads spend, impressions, clicks and engagements, pauses, enables and renames campaigns and line items, and changes campaign daily budgets and line item bids on what already runs. There is no API key and no X developer app to set up, and the same connection covers Google, Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok and 9 more platforms, 610+ tools at one endpoint.

Free for 15 tasks, no credit card. PaidSync works on X campaigns that already run. New X campaigns are built in X Ads Manager.

How to connect X Ads to ChatGPT with PaidSync

This is the route through ChatGPT's Plugins directory. No API key is needed, because ChatGPT connects with a PaidSync sign-in (OAuth).

Before you start

  • PaidSync's listing is the PaidSync app in ChatGPT's Plugins directory. Check that the developer is Advanced Technology Labs LLC, the company that operates PaidSync. OpenAI says availability depends on your ChatGPT plan, region and workspace.
  • Signing in with Google? There is no separate sign-up. You pick Continue with Google in step 2, and your free PaidSync account (15 tasks, no credit card) is created when you press Approve.
  • Prefer an email and password? Create the account at paidsync.ai/signup before you start. Email sign-up happens on the PaidSync website, not in ChatGPT.
  • Know which X account can open your ad accounts in X Ads Manager. You use it in step 3. You do not need an X developer account.
1

Add PaidSync to ChatGPT from the directory

In ChatGPT open Plugins, search PaidSync, and click Install plugin.

Sign in with your PaidSync login when prompted. That OAuth sign-in is what lets ChatGPT apply changes.

If your workspace does not show the directory, turn on Developer mode in ChatGPT settings and add a remote MCP server with the URL instead:

https://mcp.paidsync.ai/mcp

Choose OAuth when adding it that way, and sign in with your PaidSync login on first use.

2

Sign in to PaidSync and press Approve

The PaidSync sign-in screen opens. Pick Continue with Google, or sign in with your PaidSync email and password. A PaidSync screen then asks whether to allow access to your ad accounts via PaidSync. Press Approve and PaidSync is ready in ChatGPT.

New to PaidSync and signing in with Google? Your free account (15 tasks, no credit card) is created when you press Approve.

3

Connect your X Ads account and ask ChatGPT

In a chat, ask: "Connect my X Ads." ChatGPT replies with a link. It opens X's own sign-in and authorize screen. Sign in with the X account that can open your ad accounts and authorize PaidSync. PaidSync never sees your X password.

Come back and ask: "List my X ad accounts." ChatGPT uses list_x_accounts to show them and set_active_x_account to pick the one you name. Connecting X, listing your ad accounts and picking one uses none of your tasks. Then try: "Show my X campaign performance for the last 7 days."

Free for 15 tasks, no credit card. Pro from $99 a month for 600 tasks.

What PaidSync can and cannot do on X Ads

PaidSync has 14 X Ads tools. They work on campaigns and line items that already run.

PaidSync can

  • Read performance. Spend, impressions, clicks and engagements by account, campaign or line item for any date range, in the ad account's currency and time zone.
  • List what runs. Campaigns, line items and promoted posts on the ad account you picked.
  • Pause and enable. Campaigns with pause_x_campaign and enable_x_campaign, and line items through update_x_line_item.
  • Change budgets and settings. Campaign daily budgets with update_x_campaign_budget, line item bids, and campaign and line item names.

PaidSync cannot

  • Create. No new campaigns, line items or promoted posts, and no creative uploads. Build those in X Ads Manager.
  • Targeting, audiences and conversions. PaidSync has no X tool for targeting, tailored audiences or conversion reporting.

Budget, bid, name and status edits through the update tools preview as a dry run by default and are read back from X after they apply. In the PaidSync workspace, by default, every change is an approval card. The full list of the 14 tools is on the X Ads MCP server page.

X Ads prompts to try in ChatGPT

Each prompt runs on the PaidSync tools named after it and uses one or more of your tasks. Budget, bid, name and status edits through the update tools preview by default, and ChatGPT applies them when you ask.

  1. "Pull my X Ads performance for the last 30 days by campaign, with spend, impressions, clicks and engagements." Runs get_x_performance at campaign level, which lists campaigns by spend.
  2. "Compare X and Meta spend and clicks for the last 30 days." Runs get_x_performance and get_fb_performance and compares them side by side. Meta needs to be connected too.
  3. "Preview pausing the Broad Interests line item on X." Runs list_x_line_items to find it, then update_x_line_item with a paused status, which previews by default.
  4. "Preview raising the daily budget to 120 on my X campaign with the most clicks per dollar last week." Runs get_x_performance, then update_x_campaign_budget, which previews by default.
  5. "Turn the paused Holiday campaign on X back on." Runs list_x_campaigns to find it, then enable_x_campaign. Turning a campaign on restarts its spend.

Why use PaidSync for X Ads in ChatGPT

One sign-in, no developer app. You authorize PaidSync on X's own screen. There is no X developer app to create, no client ID to copy and no API key.

Built for cross-platform work. X rarely runs alone. With Meta or Google connected too, ChatGPT puts X spend and clicks next to theirs in the same conversation.

One connection, 14 platforms. X Ads sits next to Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok, Microsoft Ads, GA4, Google Tag Manager and more, 610+ tools at one endpoint. PaidSync holds Google, Meta and TikTok partner status.

Other ways to connect X Ads to ChatGPT

Each of these works differently from PaidSync. One line on each, from its own current page.

  • X's own Ads MCP server. X runs one at ads-api.x.com/mcp for X Ads. Its setup page covers Grok, Grok Build and Claude Code, and asks you to create an X developer app with Ads API access (checked 30 Sep 2026).
  • Zapier. Zapier's page for its Twitter integration says it was deprecated effective 31 August 2023 (checked 30 Sep 2026).
  • n8n. n8n's X (Formerly Twitter) node covers posts, direct messages, users and lists, and its docs list no ads operations (checked 30 Sep 2026).
  • Build your own. Write an MCP server on the X Ads API, register an X developer app, and host and maintain it yourself.

Troubleshooting X Ads in ChatGPT

  • The sign-in fails. Sign in to PaidSync the way you signed up, with Continue with Google or with your PaidSync email and password. Email users without an account create one at paidsync.ai/signup, then sign in again from the PaidSync app in ChatGPT. If X's authorize screen fails, ask ChatGPT "Connect my X Ads" again for a fresh link.
  • ChatGPT picked the wrong ad account. Ask ChatGPT to list your X ad accounts and switch to the one you mean, by name or ID. It runs list_x_accounts, then set_active_x_account, and every X request after that goes to the account you picked. Switching uses none of your tasks.
  • An ad account is not listed. PaidSync lists the ad accounts that the X account you authorized can open. Check in X Ads Manager that this X account has access to the ad account, or ask an account admin to add it, then ask ChatGPT to list your ad accounts again. Still missing? Email support@paidsync.ai.
  • ChatGPT says it has no X tool. PaidSync shows ChatGPT a short starter list of tools to keep the chat light. Ask ChatGPT to call paidsync_context before anything else. It returns your connected platforms and the full tool list, X included, and ChatGPT then runs those tools through paidsync_exec. If ChatGPT does not use PaidSync at all, check that the PaidSync app is installed under Plugins.
