# verify_campaign_is_live

> Check that a campaign exists and is live.

> [!NOTE]
>
> **Read-only.** Runs right away and changes nothing in your ad accounts. It still needs a connected platform (check `get_connections_status`) and counts as one tool call.

Check that a campaign exists and is live. GOOGLE ADS ONLY (verify\_google\_campaign\_is\_live): any other platform returns an explicit 'unsupported' error, because there is no live-check tool for Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn or Amazon. 'Live' here means the campaign status is ENABLED; budget and serving status are not checked. A campaign that is not found and missing Google credentials are indistinguishable in the underlying tool and are both returned as an error.

**Platform:** Google Ads · **Type:** Read

## How to call it

* **MCP:** on `https://mcp.adsmcp.si/mcp`, run it through the `google_ads_read` tool with `{"action": "execute", "tool_name": "verify_campaign_is_live", "arguments": { ... }}`, or call `verify_campaign_is_live` by name. `search_tools` finds it and `get_tool_schema` returns its arguments; `https://mcp.adsmcp.si/mcp/flat` lists every tool by name.
* **REST:** `POST https://mcp.adsmcp.si/api/v1/tools/verify_campaign_is_live/execute` with `Authorization: Bearer sk_live_...` and a JSON body `{"platform": "google", "arguments": { ... }}`. The arguments are listed below; they are exactly the tool's input schema.
