# Connect and use Snapchat Ads

> Connect Snapchat Ads to Nerve, confirm the correct account or property, and start with a scoped read-only request before broader analysis.

Connect Snapchat Ads to inspect accounts, campaigns, ad squads, ads, and reporting. Snapchat uses ad squads for the level beneath a campaign.

## Before you connect

Use a Snapchat identity with access to the intended advertising account. Have the account name and reporting goal ready.

## Connect and verify

1. In the intended workspace, open **Get started > Connect accounts** and find **Snapchat Ads**.
2. Choose **Connect**. If the Pipedream introduction opens, review it before choosing **Continue**.
3. Complete the provider sign-in and permission screens for the intended advertising account.
4. Return to Nerve and check the connection status. Use **Verify** if available.
5. Ask your assistant to list accessible Snapchat ad accounts, then confirm the one to use.

## What to ask Nerve

Ask for campaign and ad-squad performance before moving to individual ads. The reviewed tool catalogue describes both inspection and campaign-management operations; ask what is supported for the specific task before approving a change.

```text theme={null}
Find Snapchat ad account Example Brand. Compare campaign and ad-squad
spend, impressions, clicks, and available conversion results for the
last 7 complete days. State currency and the conversion metric.
Make no changes.
```

## Check scope and limits

Nerve may display Pipedream during connection. Continue only after reviewing the handoff and permissions. A successful provider login is followed by an account-access check; verify the intended ad account is actually listed. Use ad-squad terminology to avoid confusing Snapchat objects with Meta ad sets.

If the expected account is missing, use [connection troubleshooting](https://docs.nerve.mattemena.com/support-and-privacy/connection-problems.md). For expired access, see [Check or reconnect an account](https://docs.nerve.mattemena.com/connections/connection-status.md).
