AI agents call meta.campaigns.delete to permanently remove resources in Ads — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
The tool permanently removes a Meta advertising campaign from Ads Manager, which cannot be undone. Although historical data is retained, the campaign itself is destroyed and cannot be restored. This matches the Destructive category definition ('irreversibly deletes or overwrites data, or actions that cannot be undone').
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'delete'; description explicitly states 'DELETE a Meta campaign' and 'Irreversible — historical insights stay accessible but the campaign disappears from Ads Manager.' This is an irreversible deletion operation.
