## Quick Start

### Installation

1. **Download the TikTok Ads MCP**
   - Click the green "Code" button at the top of the GitHub page
   - Select "Download ZIP"
   - Unzip the downloaded file to a location you can easily find (like your Documents folder)

2. **Alternatively, if you're familiar with Git:**
   ```bash
   git clone https://github.com/ysntony/tiktok-ads-mcp.git
   ```

3. **Install Dependencies**
   ```bash
   cd tiktok-ads-mcp
   pip install -e .
   # or with uv
   uv pip install -e .
   ```

### Configuration

1. **Set up environment variables** in your MCP client configuration:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tiktok-ads": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "tiktok_ads_mcp"],
      "env": {
        "TIKTOK_APP_ID": "your_app_id",
        "TIKTOK_SECRET": "your_secret",
        "TIKTOK_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your_access_token"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

2. **Required credentials**:
   - `TIKTOK_APP_ID`: Your TikTok app ID
   - `TIKTOK_SECRET`: Your TikTok app secret
   - `TIKTOK_ACCESS_TOKEN`: Your access token

   **How to get these credentials:**
   1. Go to the [TikTok for Business Developers](https://ads.tiktok.com/marketing_api/) portal and log in.
   2. Click "My Apps" and create a new app.
   3. Select "Marketing API" as the service type.
   4. In the app settings, enable permissions related to **Reading** and **Reporting** (e.g., `Ads Management`, `Reporting`).
   5. Once approved, you will find your `App ID` and `Secret` in the app details.
   6. Generate an `Access Token` using the "TikTok Marketing API Inspector" or via the OAuth flow documented in the portal.
