# list_openai_ads_campaigns

Read the brand’s connected ChatGPT Ads account — the ads that appear below ChatGPT answers. Every campaign, ad group and ad row carries servingIssues, OpenAI’s own list of what is blocking delivery (payment method, brand review, budget spent, ad in review, landing page not crawlable, country policy…) with a plain meaning each: null means OpenAI was not asked, [] means it reports no blocker, which is still not a promise of impressions. Call with NO ids to get the ad account itself (its three names: brandName shown in ads, accountName internal to Ads Manager, legalName; currency, status, brand review and business review state) plus its campaigns; with campaignId to list that campaign’s ad groups; with adGroupId to list that ad group’s ads, including each ad’s REVIEW status, which is what decides whether it can ever show. Statuses here are active / paused / archived. Read-only, free, zero spend risk. Needs ChatGPT Ads connected (Settings > Connectors > ChatGPT Ads, or connect_connector): the user pastes an Advertiser API key from ChatGPT Ads Manager > Settings — there is no OAuth and no manager account, and one key is scoped to one ad account.

## Why list_openai_ads_campaigns is rated Low

Even though list_openai_ads_campaigns only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

Risk signals: Bulk/mass operation — affects multiple targets
