What It Does

  • Installs and configures the MCP server locally
  • Automatically handles environment setup
  • Prompts for Meta token authentication during the process which is optional
  • If Meta access token is not provided then connect to GoMarble's server to create the token on your behalf

Important Disclaimer

This setup does not require you to manually obtain a Meta Developer Access Token. Instead, it connects securely to GoMarble's server to create the token on your behalf. GoMarble does not store your token — it is saved locally on your machine for use with the MCP server.

Setup# Prerequisites

  • Python 3.10+
  • Dependencies listed in requirements.txt
  1. (Optional but Recommended) Create and Activate a Virtual Environment:
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate # On Windows use `venv\Scripts\activate`

Using a virtual environment helps manage project dependencies cleanly.

  1. Install Dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txt
  1. Obtain Meta Access Token: Secure a Meta User Access Token with the necessary permissions (e.g., ads_read). You can generate this through the Meta Developer portal. Follow this link.

Usage with MCP Clients (e.g., Cursor, Claude Desktop)

To integrate this server with an MCP-compatible client, add a configuration similar to the following. Replace YOUR_META_ACCESS_TOKEN with your actual token and adjust the path to server.py if necessary.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fb-ads-mcp-server": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": [
        "/path/to/your/fb-ads-mcp-server/server.py",
        "--fb-token",
        "YOUR_META_ACCESS_TOKEN"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Restart the MCP Client app after making the update in the configuration.

Debugging the Server

Execute server.py, providing the access token via the --fb-token argument.

python server.py --fb-token YOUR_META_ACCESS_TOKEN
