Frequently Asked Questions

What is a social media ads API?

└A social media ads API is a programmatic interface that lets developers automate ad management through REST API calls: campaign creation, audience targeting, budget management, and analytics.

How does Zernio's Ads API compare to integrating directly with Meta, Google, or TikTok?

└Each platform's native API requires creating a developer app, going through a platform-specific approval process, building separate OAuth flows, and learning a unique campaign object model. Zernio wraps all 7 platforms behind one REST endpoint with a normalized data model.

Can I use the Ads API with AI agents or automation tools like n8n?

└Yes. Zernio's Ads API works with any tool that can make HTTP requests. For AI agents, Zernio offers an MCP server with 280+ tools including ad management. For no-code automation, use the official n8n node, Make integration, or Zapier integration to automate ad creation, budget adjustments, and analytics reporting.

What ad campaign objectives are supported across platforms?

└Supported objectives include engagement, traffic, awareness, video views, lead generation, conversions, and app promotion. Availability varies by platform.

Which platforms can I run ads on?

└Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Google Ads, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and X (Twitter). Each platform is mapped to native campaign objectives and targeting options. See the individual platform pages for detailed API guides.

Do you import ads I created outside Zernio?

└Yes. Auto-sync runs regularly and imports ads from all connected ad accounts, including performance metrics.

Is there a REST API for ad management?

└Yes. Zernio provides a full REST API for creating, pausing, editing, and deleting ads. Manage audiences, search targeting interests, and pull real-time analytics programmatically.
