API & MCP

Connect Adwave to ChatGPT

Add Adwave to ChatGPT as a custom MCP server. Launching and changing campaigns needs a Business or Enterprise workspace.

On this page

Last updated: November 3, 2026

Add Adwave to ChatGPT on the web as a custom MCP server with the URL below, choose OAuth, then sign in. ChatGPT gives custom servers full write access only on Business and Enterprise workspaces, so launching and changing campaigns needs one of those. Pro can read your account but can't launch, and Codex is the other route.

Server URL

https://waverunner.adwave.com/api/mcp

Steps

  1. In ChatGPT on the web, open Plugins, select the plus button, then Add custom MCP server.
  2. Enter a name, such as Adwave, and paste the server URL under Connection.
  3. Choose OAuth for authentication.
  4. Review the risk warning, select the checkbox, then select Create as a plugin.
  5. Sign in to Adwave in the window that opens. New to Adwave? Create your account there.

Who can add it: on Business, only admins and owners can create and publish a custom server. On Enterprise and Edu, admins and owners can, and they can grant permission to selected members.

Check that it works

Most apps need a new conversation or a reload before new tools appear. Then ask: "List my Adwave campaigns and their spend." A new account has none yet, and the assistant should say so without an error.

Limits

  • Full MCP is documented only for Business and Enterprise or Edu. OpenAI's help article, checked November 2, 2026, says Pro users get read and fetch permissions.
  • As of the date above, Adwave isn't listed in ChatGPT's plugin directory, so ChatGPT won't suggest it on its own.
  • If your plan can only read, use Codex, or launch in the Adwave app and read results in ChatGPT.
  • Campaigns run in the US and Canada only, from $30 a day on a prepaid wallet. TikTok is opt-in early access. Pinterest is coming soon.
  • Every tool that spends is marked destructive, so the app asks first. Launching and resuming set the day aside, and what ran is charged the next morning. Top-ups happen on Stripe's hosted page, never in chat.
