Questions about create_apple_ads_ad_account
Create a new ad account under this Apple Ads organization — the container an agency opens per client, or a business opens to run Apple Maps ads alongside App Store ones. AN AD ACCOUNT SPENDS NOTHING: it holds campaigns, and every campaign inside it is still born PAUSED. productFeatures is REQUIRED, is a CHOICE OF ONE, and is IMMUTABLE FOREVER — APPSTORE_APP_MANUAL for App Store advertising or BUSINESS_BRAND_MANUAL for Apple Maps, never both, and an organization needing both keeps two accounts. Delegations must MATCH that choice: an App Store account delegates a CONTENT_PROVIDER (a CPID from list_apple_ads_advertiser_resources), a Maps account delegates a BUSINESS_BRAND — a mismatch is refused for free here, because Apple accepts it and you get an account that cannot advertise anything. currency, timeZone and paymentModel are inherited from the organization and cannot be set. NOTE: Hermoso keeps writing to the ONE ad account this connection is pinned to — reconnect Apple Ads and choose the new account to build inside it. 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.
