FAQ

Questions about add_apple_ads_keywords

What does the add_apple_ads_keywords tool do? +

Add targeting keywords to an Apple Ads ad group. keywords is [{text, matchType, bid}] — matchType EXACT (default), BROAD, PHRASE or CATEGORY, and bid optionally overrides the ad group default for that one term. Up to 1000 per call and 5000 per ad group. They are sent ONE AT A TIME on purpose: a single term Apple refuses cannot take the rest of the batch down, and the reply names every refusal with Apple’s own reason, then reads the ad group’s keywords back to prove what actually landed. Keyword text and match type are IMMUTABLE — to change either, delete the keyword and add it again. A keyword is created ENABLED because it cannot serve unless its ad group and campaign are enabled too; if the ad group is ALREADY live, adding keywords serves on the next auction and therefore takes confirm:true. Free. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Hermoso MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
