Human role: Source evidence is unavailable regarding specific human roles.; limitations: Prerequisites include a manager account, OAuth credentials, and a Google Ads developer token, with a noted 48-hour wait period for setup. Integration uncertainty exists regarding the stability of API connections and data accuracy.

Overview
A PPC marketer uses Claude Code and Codex connected to Google Ads API, GA4, Search Console, CRM and Meta to manage ads, not just report on them.
Workflow
Suggested implementation: A PPC marketer uses coding agents like Claude Code or Codex to manage Google and Meta ads. The workflow involves building scripts on Google APIs and organizing client data in folders accessible to the models. Agents pull reports on search terms, spend, and CRM outcomes to draft negative keywords, Responsive Search Ads (RSAs), and restructuring ideas. Human involvement is required for final review and approval, though specific roles are not detailed in the source.
Reported result
The approach is most useful for repetitive weekly account maintenance and identifying tracking or CRM issues that appear as ad performance problems. No hard performance lift numbers or specific success metrics are provided in the source. A measurable acceptance check would be to track the reduction in time spent on weekly reporting and negative keyword generation compared to manual processes.
Human role
Source evidence is unavailable regarding specific human roles.
Limitations
Prerequisites include a manager account, OAuth credentials, and a Google Ads developer token, with a noted 48-hour wait period for setup. Integration uncertainty exists regarding the stability of API connections and data accuracy. Source reliability is secondary, and human approvals are critical before any changes are applied to live ad accounts. Proposed advice: Start with read-only access to validate data extraction before enabling write permissions.
Try it
Act as a PPC specialist using Claude Code or Codex. I have client data in a folder structure with Google Ads, GA4, and CRM exports. [Replaceable inputs: Client name, specific ad account ID, date range for analysis]. First, perform a dry run: Connect to the Google Ads API and GA4 to pull search term reports and conversion data. Draft a list of negative keywords and three RSA variations based on this data. Do not apply changes. Present the drafts and a summary of potential tracking issues to me for review. If I approve, proceed to implement the changes via the API. Measure success by the time saved on this weekly task compared to manual effort. If API credentials are missing or the developer token is invalid, stop and request the necessary OAuth credentials and token. Ask clarifying questions only if the client's specific conversion goals are unclear.
