Amazon-Ads authentication

This page documents the authentication and configuration options for the Amazon-Ads agent connector.

Hosted mode (most cases)

In hosted mode, create the connector through the Airbyte Agent CLI or API, then execute operations using the CLI, Python SDK, or API. If you need a step-by-step guide, see the developer quickstart.

OAuth

Use the CLI for hosted OAuth connector creation when possible. It opens the hosted setup flow and avoids passing connector secrets through the command line:

airbyte-agent login
airbyte-agent connectors create --json '{
"workspace": "<your_workspace_name>",
"name": "amazon-ads"
}'

For API-first use cases, create a connector with OAuth credentials directly.

credentials fields you need:

Field NameTypeRequiredDescription
client_idstrNoThe client ID of your Amazon Ads API application
client_secretstrNoThe client secret of your Amazon Ads API application
refresh_tokenstrYesThe refresh token obtained from the OAuth authorization flow

Example request:

curl -X POST "https://api.airbyte.ai/api/v1/integrations/connectors" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN>" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"workspace_name": "<WORKSPACE_NAME>",
"connector_type": "Amazon-Ads",
"name": "My Amazon-Ads Connector",
"credentials": {
"client_id": "<The client ID of your Amazon Ads API application>",
"client_secret": "<The client secret of your Amazon Ads API application>",
"refresh_token": "<The refresh token obtained from the OAuth authorization flow>"
}
}'

Token

This authentication method isn't available for this connector.

Execution

After creating the connector, execute operations using the CLI, Python SDK, or API. If your Airbyte client can access multiple organizations, set the default organization with airbyte-agent organizations use, include organization_id in AirbyteAuthConfig, or include X-Organization-Id in raw API calls.

CLI

Authenticate with Airbyte:

airbyte-agent login

Create the connector. The CLI opens the hosted setup flow:

airbyte-agent connectors create --json '{
"workspace": "<your_workspace_name>",
"name": "amazon-ads"
}'

Describe the connector to see its supported entities and actions:

airbyte-agent connectors describe --json '{
"workspace": "<your_workspace_name>",
"name": "amazon-ads"
}'

Execute an action:

airbyte-agent connectors execute --json '{
"workspace": "<your_workspace_name>",
"name": "amazon-ads",
"entity": "<entity>",
"action": "<action>",
"params": {}
}'

Python SDK

The connect() factory returns a fully typed AmazonAdsConnector and reads AIRBYTE_CLIENT_ID / AIRBYTE_CLIENT_SECRET from the environment:

Pydantic AI
from pydantic_ai import Agent
from airbyte_agent_sdk import connect
from airbyte_agent_sdk.connectors.amazon_ads import AmazonAdsConnector

connector = connect("amazon-ads", workspace_name="<your_workspace_name>")

agent = Agent("openai:gpt-4o")

@agent.tool_plain
@AmazonAdsConnector.tool_utils
async def amazon_ads_execute(entity: str, action: str, params: dict | None = None):
return await connector.execute(entity, action, params or {})

Or pass credentials explicitly (equivalent, useful when you're not loading them from the environment): Pydantic AI

Pydantic AI
from pydantic_ai import Agent
from airbyte_agent_sdk.connectors.amazon_ads import AmazonAdsConnector
from airbyte_agent_sdk.types import AirbyteAuthConfig

connector = AmazonAdsConnector(
auth_config=AirbyteAuthConfig(
workspace_name="<your_workspace_name>",
organization_id="<your_organization_id>", # Optional for multi-org clients
airbyte_client_id="<your-client-id>",
airbyte_client_secret="<your-client-secret>"
)
)

agent = Agent("openai:gpt-4o")

@agent.tool_plain
@AmazonAdsConnector.tool_utils
async def amazon_ads_execute(entity: str, action: str, params: dict | None = None):
return await connector.execute(entity, action, params or {})

API

curl -X POST 'https://api.airbyte.ai/api/v1/integrations/connectors/<connector_id>/execute' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN>' \
-H 'X-Organization-Id: <YOUR_ORGANIZATION_ID>' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"entity": "<entity>", "action": "<action>", "params": {}}'

Open source mode

In open source mode, provide API credentials directly to the connector.

OAuth

credentials fields you need:

Field NameTypeRequiredDescription
client_idstrNoThe client ID of your Amazon Ads API application
client_secretstrNoThe client secret of your Amazon Ads API application
refresh_tokenstrYesThe refresh token obtained from the OAuth authorization flow

Example request:

from airbyte_agent_sdk.connectors.amazon_ads import AmazonAdsConnector
from airbyte_agent_sdk.connectors.amazon_ads.models import AmazonAdsAuthConfig

connector = AmazonAdsConnector(
auth_config=AmazonAdsAuthConfig(
client_id="<The client ID of your Amazon Ads API application>",
client_secret="<The client secret of your Amazon Ads API application>",
refresh_token="<The refresh token obtained from the OAuth authorization flow>"
)
)

Token

This authentication method isn't available for this connector.

Configuration

The Amazon-Ads connector also needs these configuration values to construct the base API URL.

  • Hosted CLI: airbyte-agent connectors create doesn't currently accept these configuration fields directly. For hosted connectors that need these values, create the connector with the hosted API replication_config, then use the CLI for describe and execute operations after creation.
  • Hosted API: pass these values in the connector creation replication_config.
  • Open source mode: provide these values with your local connector setup so the connector can build the correct API base URL.
