X Ads

AdsOAuthX Ads developer docs ↗

X Ads connects through OAuth 2.0. You authorize Modiva to read your ad account and manage X (Twitter) ad campaigns and reporting.

Before you start

  • An X Ads account.
  • Access to that ad account to approve the authorization.

Step-by-step setup

  1. 1

    Sign in to Modiva

    Log in at modiva.ai and open the Dashboard. You need a Modiva account before you can connect any platform — creating one takes a minute and no credit card is required for the free tier.

  2. 2

    Open Connections → New connection

    In the left sidebar choose Connections, then click New connection. You'll see the full catalogue of platforms grouped by category (Social and Ads).

  3. 3

    Select X Ads

    Click the X Ads card. Modiva redirects you to X Ads's official sign-in and permission screen — your password is entered on X Ads, never on Modiva.

    Authorize Modiva on X Ads

    Review the permissions Modiva is requesting and approve them. If you manage more than one account, page or profile, pick the one you want Modiva to manage.

  5. 5

    You're connected

    X Ads now sends you back to Modiva and the connection appears with a green Connected status. From here it's available to every MCP key and API call in your workspace.

Permissions Modiva requests

When you connect X Ads, Modiva asks only for the access it needs to run the tools you use. You can revoke it any time from X Ads or by disconnecting in Modiva.

  • Read your profile and ad data
  • Manage ad campaigns
  • Stay connected (offline access)

Troubleshooting & FAQ

Where is my X Ads password stored?

Nowhere. You sign in on the provider's own site and Modiva only receives a scoped access token, which is encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM. Modiva never sees your password.

My connection says Expired or Error — what do I do?

Open Connections, find the platform and click Reconnect (or Refresh token). Providers periodically expire tokens or revoke them when you change your password; reconnecting re-runs the consent screen and restores access.

How do I disconnect?

Open Connections, click the X Ads row and choose Disconnect. Modiva deletes the stored token immediately. You can also revoke Modiva from inside X Ads's own app settings.
