google_ads_create_campaign

Create a Google Ads campaign. A write tool that previews before it changes anything, one of 44 Google Ads tools on the Get MCP Ads MCP gateway.

Create a Google Ads campaign. It is always created PAUSED and there is no option to create it active: someone has to look at it before it spends. Creates the campaign budget too. Previews by default.
