Reddit Ads + Microsoft Copilot
Read Reddit Ads accounts through the Ads API v3: businesses, ad accounts, campaigns, ad groups, ads, funding instruments, and performance reports with spend, impressions, clicks, conversions and video metrics broken down by day, campaign, ad, country or community.
Prerequisites
See the full setup instructions baked into the connector (visible in the in-app store when you select the connector). The required environment variables for this connector are:
REDDIT_ADS_CLIENT_ID, REDDIT_ADS_CLIENT_SECRET
Step 1 — Get credentials
The connector reads Reddit Ads through the Ads API v3 and does not create or change campaigns. It needs a developer application created in Reddit Ads; the general Reddit API apps from reddit.com/prefs/apps do not work here.
- A business admin with a verified account opens Reddit Ads → Business → Developer Portal → Add Apps → Create an app.
- Set the app's Redirect URL to the redirect URI shown on the connector page (on AnythingMCP Cloud:
https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/api/mcp-oauth/callback). - Copy the App ID into
REDDIT_ADS_CLIENT_IDand the app secret intoREDDIT_ADS_CLIENT_SECRETand save. LeaveREDDIT_ADS_REFRESH_TOKENempty. - Click Authorize with Provider and sign in with the Reddit account that has access to the ad accounts. Check the username on Reddit's consent page and log out first if it shows another account. The connector asks for the
adsreadscope with permanent duration, stores the refresh token and renews the one-hour access token by itself. - Call
reddit_ads_get_me, thenreddit_ads_list_my_businessesandreddit_ads_list_business_ad_accountsfor the ids the other tools need.
In reddit_ads_get_report, starts_at and ends_at must fall on a full hour in UTC, and money values are scaled: SPEND, CPC, CPV and ECPM are in millionths of the account currency (divide by 1,000,000). Metrics can take up to 6 hours to settle. A 403 means the authorized user has no role on that business or ad account; a 429 means wait and retry.
Step 2 — Install the adapter
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp/main/docker-compose.quickstart.yml -o docker-compose.yml
printf 'JWT_SECRET=%s\nENCRYPTION_KEY=%s\n' "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" > .env
docker compose up -d
Step 3 — Add the connector in Microsoft Copilot
Your server URL: in AnythingMCP, open MCP Servers → the server this connector is on, and copy its URL (
https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/…). Use it wherever this guide showsYOUR_SERVER_ID.
Microsoft Copilot uses MCP servers through agents built in Copilot Studio: you add AnythingMCP to an agent as a tool, then publish the agent to Microsoft 365 Copilot and Teams. Copilot Studio connects from Microsoft's cloud over Streamable HTTP, which AnythingMCP supports.
- In Copilot Studio, open your agent (or create one), go to Tools and choose Add a tool → New tool → Model Context Protocol.
- Enter a Server name (for example
AnythingMCP), a Server description that says what the connector does, and the Server URLhttps://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_ID. Copilot Studio uses the description to decide when to call the server. - Under authentication, choose API key, set Type to Header and the header name to
X-API-Key, then select Create. - In Add tool, choose Create a new connection, paste an MCP API key from AnythingMCP (MCP Servers → your server → API keys) and select Add to agent.
- Try it in the agent's Test pane: ask for something that needs the
Reddit Adstools. - Select Publish, then Channels → Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Teams, keep Make agent available in Microsoft Copilot selected and choose Add channel. See agent in Teams installs it for you; in Microsoft 365 Copilot, type @ and pick the agent.
Prefer per-user sign-in? Choose OAuth 2.0 → Dynamic discovery instead of an API key: each user then signs in to AnythingMCP the first time the agent calls it.
Self-hosting? Use your instance's public HTTPS address instead of https://cloud.anythingmcp.com. Copilot Studio connects from Microsoft's cloud, so localhost does not work.

FAQ
Which Copilot is this for? Microsoft 365 Copilot at work, through agents built in Copilot Studio. The Microsoft Copilot app for personal accounts has no option to add your own MCP server.
What do I need? A work account with access to Copilot Studio (a license or a trial) to build the agent. People who use it in Microsoft 365 Copilot or Teams need access to the agent: share it with them, or ask an admin to publish it to the organization. If your organization applies data policies to Power Platform connectors, they cover MCP servers too.
The agent doesn't call the tools. Check that the header name is exactly X-API-Key and that the key belongs to the same MCP server as the URL, and make the server description specific: Copilot Studio uses it to decide when to call the server. Publish the agent again after each change; in an open chat, type "start over" to get the new version.
