Only people signed in through the company's single sign-on can use it. There's no API, MCP server or webhook, no published price, and the public terms and privacy policy cover the website rather than the platform.\n\n**Meta Marketing API.** Reporting, campaign, budget, audience and creative endpoints sit behind `ads_read` and `ads_management` scopes, with a `validate_only` option and sandbox ad accounts for checking a change before it spends. New apps are held to a score of 60 per ad account, with a 300-second block at the limit, and the documented requests pass the access token as a parameter.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### FetchIQ\n\n1. Don't try to call FetchIQ. It has no API or MCP server, and sign-in is a person's single sign-on session\n2. Ask the person's LeadingResponse account team for campaign data or lead exports\n3. Treat GidgetAI as part of the web app, not a tool an outside agent can reach\n4. Leads may reach a person's CRM through LeadingResponse's integration, so read them there\n\n### Meta Marketing API\n\n1. Put a version in every path, such as /v26.0/act_\u003cAD_ACCOUNT_ID\u003e/campaigns. Unversioned Marketing API calls fail\n2. Create campaigns, ad sets and ads with `status=PAUSED`, and send `execution_options=[\"validate_only\"]` first to test a write without making it\n3. Ask for `ads_read` alone when the task is reporting. `ads_management` can change budgets and activate spend\n4. Read `X-Business-Use-Case-Usage` and `X-Ad-Account-Usage` after each call and wait for `estimated_time_to_regain_access` on errors 17, 613 and 80004\n5. Change an ad set budget at most four times an hour and an account spending limit at most ten times a day\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, FetchIQ or Meta Marketing API?\n\nMeta Marketing API scores 67.7 (B) on agent readiness against FetchIQ's 10.3 (F), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Can an agent call FetchIQ and Meta Marketing API without installing anything?\n\nNo hosted endpoint is listed for FetchIQ.
